하나로를 이용한 재료조사시험용 계장캡슐 개발에 앞서 캡슐 mock-up (96M-01K)을 제작하였으며, 이 캡슐 mock-up의 실제 하나로 조사시험공 장입시를 가정하여 강도 및 열적 건전성 평가를 수행하였다. 평가 결과 하나로 정상출력시 (30MW) 캡슐 mock-up 내 조사시료의 온도는 진공 및 heating system을 사용하여 279~473$^{\circ}C$ 범위로 조절될 수 있었으며, 목표 조사기간 동안 캡슐 mock-up은 강도적으로 허용기준을 충분히 만족함으로써 안전한 것으로 판명되었다. 향후 본 캡슐 mock-up을 이용한 노외 simulation 실험 등을 통하여 기존 캡슐 mock-up의 건전성을 확인한 후 이를 기준으로 하여 표준형 하나로 캡슐을 설계 .제작하고자 한다.

본 연구는 키토올리고당이 우유에 첨가되었을 때에 색과 점도에 영향을 미치는 것을 방지하기 위하여 키토올리고당을 나노캡슐화하여 우유에 첨가하여 그 변화를 연구하였다. 혈중 콜레스테롤의 저하 기능이 있는 키토올리고당은 우유 첨가 시 원래의 특성을 변형시키나 나노캡슐 첨가시에는 88.08%의 높은 수율을 나타내며 0.5% 첨가시 점도와 색에 유의적 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 키토올리고당 나노캡슐은 온도에 크게 영향 받지 않으며 저장기간이 동안에(증류수 25일, 우유 15일)캡슐의 감소가 크지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 관능 평가시에는 나노캡슐 1.5%의 농도까지 시유와 유의적 차이를 느끼지 못하였다. 실험 결과, 키토올리고당의 우유 적용시 적색화와 점도 저하를 나노캡슐 적용을 통해 해결하고 나노캡슐의 저장에 따른 안정성이 온도에 안정한 물질이라 판단된다. 또한 나노캡슐을 우유에 적용시 관능적으로도 긍정적으로 평가되었다. 결과적으로 키토올리고당의 나노캡슐화는 우유에 적용이 가능하여 이화학적 및 관능적인 면에서 혈중 콜레스테롤 저하 기능성 우유로 가능성을 시사하였다.

자가손상복구 기법에서 마이크로캡슐은 손상복구 효율을 좌우하는 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 종류의 손상복구액을 함유한 마이크로캡슐을 Melamine/Urea/Formaldehyde를 외벽물질로 하여 in-situ 중합법에 의해서 oil-in-water emulsion 방법으로 제조하였다. 제조된 마이크로캡슐을 광학현미경, 주사전자현미경으로 캡슐 모폴로지, 외부 및 내부표면, 외벽 두께 등을 조사하였다. 그리고 입도분석기를 이용하여 캡슐의 크기를 측정하였으며 그 결과 캡슐의 직경은 평균 약 120 마이크론 정도였다.

하나로 재료 조사시험용 표준형 계장캡슐 개발의 일환으로 캡슐 mock-up (96M-01K)을 제작하여 노외에서 승온 성능실험을 수행함으로써, 실제 하나로내 장입시의 거동 및 안전성을 평가하고자 하였다. 본 실험을 통하여 표준형 계장캡슐의 설계/제작기술, 열적조절성능, 그리고 열설계용 컴퓨터 code (GENGTC) 둥을 평가할 수 있었다. 캡슐의 진공 및 micro-heater system은 만족할만한 성능을 보였으며, 캡슐의 공기중 승은거동은 계산치와 약간의 차이는 있으나, 이는 가공/조립상의 내부 gap 변화, 캡슐표면에서의 온도측정상의 오류, 그리고 상하부로의 열손실 등에 기인하는 것으로 추정된다. 본 실험을 통하여 표준형 계장캡슐의 하나로내 건전성을 추정할 수 있었으며, 향후 하나로 장입시의 승온 및 하강절차 등을 설정할 수 있었다. 현재 본 실험 결과들을 토대로 하나로 조사시험공의 (CT, IR1, IR2) 핵적특성 평가용 표준형 계장캡슐을 (97M-01K) 설계ㆍ제작 중이다.

In this work, to develop soil inoculant which maintains stable viable cells and normalized quality, studies on micro-encapsulation with bacteria and yeast cells were performed by investigating materials and methods for micro-encapsulation as well as variation and stability of encapsulated cells. Preparation of capsule was conducted by application of extrusion system using micro-nozzle and peristaltic pump. K-carragenan and Na-alginate were selected as best carrier for gelation among K-carageenan, Na-alginate, locust bean gum, cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP), chitosan and gelatin tested. Comparing the gels prepared with Bacillus sp. KSIA-9 and carriers of 1.5% concentration, although viable cell of K-carragenan and Na-alginate was six times higher than those of other, Na-alginate was finally selected as carrier for gelation because it is seven times cheaper than K-carragenan. The gel of 1.5% Na-alginate was also observed to have the best morphology with circular hardness polymatrix and highest viable cell. When investigating the stability of encapsulated cells and the stabilizer effect, free cells were almost dead within 30 or 40 days whereas encapsulated cells decreased in 10% after 30 days and 15-30% even after 120 days. As stabilizer for maintaining viable cell, both 1% starch and zeolite appeared to possess the level of 70-80% cell for bacteria and yeast until after 120 days.

This paper presents the results of a study conducted to improve the understanding of the characteristics of cylindrical capsule flow in a pipeline by taking into account of the effect of capsule density uniformity. The effect of capsule density variation in the axial direction was studied both experimentally and anaytically. The experiments were conducted in a 190mm diameter straight pipe 17m long. The velocity, gap and tilt of capsules were measured under various conditions, In order to interpret the data on various capsule density conditions, the stability index given in the dimensionless number was introduced. The motion of capsules in pipelines is strongly affected by the stability of the capsules characterized by the stability index. The experiments conducted prover that the stability index is a valid criterion for explaining and correlating data on the capsule motion and the capsule density uniformity.

The effect of capsule density variation in the axial direction was studied both experimentally and analytically. The experiments were xonducted in a 190mm diameter straight pipe 18m long. The velocity, tilt of capsules and the gap between the capsule bottom and the pipe bottom were measured under various conditions. In order to interpret the data on the various capsule density conditions, the stability index given in the dimensionless numberwas introduced. The motion of capsules in pipelines is strongly affected by the stability of the capsules characterized by the stability index. The experiments conducted proved that the stability index is a valid criterion for explaining and correlating data on the capsule motion and the capsule density uniformity.

The capsules were prepared from a phase change material (PCM) of octadecane as a core material and melamine formaldehyde resin as a shell material. The PCM capsule size was varied in the range of $3{\sim}25{\mu}m$. The core contents and sizes of the PCM capsule, were determined by DSC and SEM, respectively. An acrylic coating material which contains butyl acrylate (BA), methyl metacrylate (MMA) and acrylic acid (AA) were synthesized by emulsion polymerization. The films were prepared from the acrylic emulsion and PCM capsules which have various capsule sizes. From the results of SEM experiment, it was observed that the PCM capsules were well dispersed inside the film and the surface of the film became less rough when the PCM capsule size was small. The swelling ratio of the films were not significantly affected by the PCM capsule size. However, the tensile strength and elongation of the films were greatly decreased with increasing the PCM capsule size.

We have performed microencapsulation of phenyl acetate using poly (urea-formaldehyde) as a shell material, and studied the effect of agitation rate,. core/shell mass ratio, surfactant concentration, and reaction time on capsule characteristics such as size, shell thickness, and surface morphology. The formation of microcapsules was confirmed by FTIR and TGA, and capsule characteristics were studied by optical microscopy and FE-SEM. Capsule size and shell thickness reduced with increasing agitation rate. As the mass of shell material was increased, shell thickness and nanoparticles on capsule surface increased. Capsule size and shell thickness decreased with increasing the concentration of a surfactant. Increasing reaction time caused increased capsule yield and shell thickness.

Lactobacillus fermentum YL-3 was encapsulated to increase acid tolerance and its total viability. After micro-encapsulation of L. fermentum YL-3 cells with sodium alginate and soybean oil, the morphology of the microcapsule was observed using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) after staining with pyronin Y and fluorescein isothiocyanate. The sizes of the microcapsules were 120-126 ${\mu}m$, 444-486 ${\mu}m$ and 401-463 ${\mu}m$ when manufactured at pH 2, 3 and 4, respectively. The microcapsule could hold live cells of L. fermentum YL-3 up to $1.2{\times}10^{7}$, $8.1{\times}10^{7}$ and $1.1{\times}10^{8}$ CFU/mL at pH 2, 3 and 4, respectively. The acid tolerance and preservative ability of L. fermentum YL-3 in microcapsule and macrocapsule at $4^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$ were tested. L. fermentum YL-3 cells were evenly located in the alginate capsule matrix structure and the firmness of microcapsule was highest at pH 2. Micro-encapsulation showed the most effective acid tolerance at pH 2.0 and preservation of viability at $4^{\circ}C$. However, at $25^{\circ}C$, the macrocapsules showed more effective cell protection than the microcapsules. The application range for microcapsules could be wider than for macrocapsules in the food industry.
