Recently, global facing environmental issues have been raised caused by plastic waste. Hence, increasing the demand for interest in environmentally friendly materials. In this row, research on engineering composite materials also replacing the synthetic reinforcement by introducing natural fibers. However, focus on the strength and interfacial adhesion between matrix and reinforcement is very essential in natural fiber composite, which is insufficient in the literature. There are number of approaches for improving the mechanical strength of the composites, one of the common methods is to reinforce additive nanoparticles. The present investigation, bio-additives were synthesized utilizing bio-waste, cheap, bio-degradable sea-weed powder that could replace expensive nanomaterials and reinforced into the CFRP composite through Hand lay-up followed by a vacuum process. Mechanical properties were evaluated and analyzed through microanalysis. The results concluded that synthesized additives are effective for improving mechanical properties such as tensile, flexural, impact, and shear strength. Overall, the results confirmed that the fabricated composites have potential applications in the field of engineering applications.

ln this study, natural extracts extracted from cypress sapiens, a natural material, were investigated as materials that could protect skin aging caused by ultraviolet rays, and experiments were conducted on the synthesis of filaggrins that make up the natural moisturizing factor of the skin, the synthesis of pro-colagen, a fibrous protein, which plays an important role in moisturizing the dermis, and elastin, which is an enzyme that decomposes collagen. As a result, cypress ethanol extract (COE) was a dependent inhibitor to collagenase and elastase, inhibiting the synthesis of filaggrin and the expression of MMP-1 for exfoliated cells damaged by ultraviolet rays. Therefore, it is estimated that ethanol extract will have the effect of delaying wrinkles and as a functional cosmetic material that inhibits skin aging convergence. Based on this study, we would like to further study the mechanism of the synthesis of filaggrin on the suppression of expression of MMP, which is the anti-wrinkle effect.

자원식물은 인간의 천연물에 대한 관심 고조와 미래 생물자원으로서의 경제적 가치가 재인식되어 미국을 비롯한 선진국은 오래전부터 유용한 식물자원 보존과 이를 이용한 산업화에 정부가 앞장서 추진하고 있다. 더욱이 우리나라는 국토면적에 비해 많은 식물종이 분포하고 뚜렷한 4계절과 다양한 토양특성으로 우수한 기능성식물자원이 많으며 이들 식물자원의 이용과 효능에 대한 풍부한 지식이 전통적으로 이어져 왔다. 그럼에도 불구하고 우수한 자원식물에 대한 보존과 이용이 과학화 체계화되지 못하여 세계적인 품종이나 제품개발은 미흡한 실정이다. 그동안 우리나라는 토종자원에 대한 관심과 꾸준한 연구개발로 농촌진흥청 보존 농업유전자원은 세계 6위 수준('10년말 291천점) 이며, 멀티기능 유용물질 함유 작물 개발 및 실용화 기술수준도 기술력 지수 세계7위로 높게 평가되고 있다. 그러나 이들 자원식물로부터 유용물질을 이용하여 세계시장을 선도하는 천연물신약, 건강기능성식품, 한방화장품, 천연 색소 및 향료 등의 제품개발은 미흡하여 앞으로 유망 자원식물을 이용한 체계적이고 과학적인 고부가 산업 육성을 위한 집중적인 투자가 필요한 시점이다. 자원식물을 이용한 천연물 신약개발은 고부가가치 제품과 산업재산권 확보가 가능하므로 수입 대체와 기술 및 제품수출이 충분히 이루어질 수 있다고 보여 현재 연구개발 중인 신약후보 도출 및 임상개발 과제의 수요를 반영한 후 단계별 대규모 신약개발 노력이 필요하다 하겠다. 건강기능 식품 개발은 고령사회 진입과 노령인구 증가로 노화억제 및 고령자 건강유지용 식품비중이 지속적으로 높아질 것으로 추정되어 약용식물을 소재로 개인 맞춤형 나노바이오 건강기능성 식품 개발을 통한 다양한 제품개발이 요구된다. 또한 우리나라 화장품분야의 전반적인 기술수준은 세계최고 기술의 62% 수준이나 화장품 소재의 자원식물 발굴과 나노기술 접목을 통한 효능의 극대화는 소비자의 웰빙 트랜드와 외국화장품과의 차별화 전략에 맞물려 국내 한방화장품의 세계화가 가능한 품목 중 하나이다. 식용 및 염색용 색소도 자원식물이 풍부하고 천연색소 시장이 크게 확장되고 있어 자원식물 중 경제성과 기술적 개발 가능성을 고려하여 단계적인 개발이 요구된다. 특히, 우리의 식물자원, 전통지식, 과학기술이 통합되어 효능을 현저하게 상승시키는 천연물신약, 건강보조식품, 화장품 등이 개발된다면 세계시장을 선도할 날도 멀지 않을 것으로 기대한다.

With entry into force of the Nagoya Protocol to promote the fair sharing of the benefits of accessing and utilizing genetic resources, much support has been given to research on the development of biomaterials and products using domestic natural resources. Conservation and resource-saving of native species became very important through Nagoya Protocol enactment. The trend of cosmetic industry has been shifing from use synthetic chemicals to natural biomaterials, due to the safety regulations on new materials, ban on animal experiments, and expansion of cosmeceuticals range. In addition, functional cosmetic range has been expanded from whitening, wrinkle improvement, and ultraviolet shielding, to hair loss, hair loss alleviation, acne relaxation, and moisturizing of atopic skin, thus causing the activation of research about field of efficacy evaluation on natural biomaterials and commercialization. Chungbuk province is fostering the bio industry as a key industry for regional economic growth. For this purpose, Osong Biotechnology Complex/Ochang Science Industrial Complex in middle area, Jecheon biovalley in northern region, and Chungju Enterprise city have been established, thus playing a pivotal role in Bio innovative cluster in Korea. In particular, it was established the osong cosmetics clinical research support center to develop the cosmetics industry in chungbuk, thereby supporting clinical trials, efficacy evaluations, overseas certification, and overseas market entry in order to advance into the global market. In addition, oriental plants such as astragalus propinquus, schisandra chinensis, eucommia, alpiniae oxyphyllae fructus and biancaea sappan are being actively studied as global cosmetic ingredients through the promotion of various national research and development projects using natural materials in chungbuk province. The chungbuk natural product industry is expected to grow further throughout cosmetics industry development in the future, as companies and research institutes are actively promoting the secure index of effective material in natural products and effective material commercialization.
