The swelling and hydration properties of Korean red ginseng tails and yield of total solids in extract were studied during extraction with ethanol solution having a concentration of 0-90% at $60-100^{\circ}C$. Extraction was carried out 5 times which was taken 8 hours per each time of extraction. The swelling, hydration and total solids yield were increased as the ethanol concentration decreased and as the extraction temperature raised. The cumulative value of solids yield suggested that three times of extractions with water or 70% ethanol were effective to recover more than 84%. Linear regression analysis on the properties investigated and extraction conditions showed a linear logarithmic relationship .

기존의 얇고 가벼운 기능성 투습방수 film은 각종 등산복이나 육해공군전투복, 경찰복, 소방복 등에 폭넓게 이용되고 있다. 그러나 현재의 이런 제품들은 뛰어난 투습방수성을 나타내지만 눈, 비, 이슬 등과 같은 수분과 만날 경우 필름 고분자 구조의 Swelling으로 표면의 불규칙한 요철현상이 생기며, 이는 제품의 불량으로 문제시 되고 있다. Swelling이 생기지 않는 친수성 Urethane film이 스키복으로 많이 상용되고 있기는 하지만 두께가 두껍고 무거워서 움직임이 불편한 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점들을 보완하여 얇고 가벼운 기능성 비팽윤 투습 방수 필름을 제조하였다. 제조된 비팽윤 투습 방수 필름제품은 기존의 투습 방수 필름과도 다른 독특한 Bead concrete 구조를 형성하고 있으며, 미세입자들이 서로 접합하여 우수한 투습성을 발현하며, 기저층의 모노리스 멤브레인(Monolithic film)의 적층구조로서 형성되어 있어 강도 및 투습도 등의 성능이 제어되고, 수분 흡수에 따른 팽윤현상이 발생하지 않는다.

A new hydroxylpropyl chitosan (HPCTO) capable of forming both thermotropic and lyotropic liquid crystalline phases was synthesized by reaction of alkali chitosan with propylene oxide and its solid films cross-linked with glyoxal were prepared by casting the liquid crystalline solution in methanol. The thermal and swelling properties of the cross-linked films were investigated. The films displayed fingerprint patterns characteristic of cholesteric liquid-crystalline phase, and their pitches increased with increasing temperature and cross-linker concentration. The cross-linked samples exhibited an anisotropic swelling in both water and methanol, suggesting that the two-dimensional cross-linking preferentially performs between HPCTO molecules. The degree of anisotropy highly depended on the solvent, but hardly on the cross-linker concentration investigated.

Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) membranes crosslinked with poly(acrylic acid-co-maleic anhydride) (PAM) as a polymeric crosslinking agent were prepared to investigate the pervaporation performance for the dehydration separation of aqueous ethanol solution. The characteristics of the resulting membranes crosslinked(x) were analysed by FT-IR and water swelling test. The water swelling decreased with increasing crosslinking agent content. The crosslinked PVA membranes with PAM showed lower water swelling than those of PVA membrane crosslinked with glutaraldehyde and modified PVA membrane. The swelling of water molecules in the crosslinked PVA membranes is more restricted by both chemical crosslinking between PVA and polymeric crosslinking agent chains and physical crosslinking by the entanglement between the PVA and polymeric crosslinking agent chains. For the pervaporation of aqueous ethanol solution through the crosslinked membrane, as the contents of crosslinking agent increased, the separation factor increased while the permeation flux decreased. The separation factor slightly decreased and permeation flux increased with increasing feed water content. As a result it could be considered that PVA-PAM membranes suppressed the plasticization effect even in the range of high water concentration in fled.

Hydroxypropylated starches and acetylated starches were prepared by reaction of potato starch with propylene oxide and acetic anhydride, respectively and then degree of retrogradation and swelling power were investigated in different pHs and temperature. The extent of retrogradation determined by glucoamylase method during freeze-thaw treatment and storage in low temperature $(0{\sim}5^{\circ}C)$ showed that modified potato starches were slowly retrograded as the increase of degree of substitution. The order of the retrogradation tendencies in different pHs were pH 4>pH 6>pH 8>pH 10. Retrogradation of hydroxypropylated potato starches were less than that of acetylated potato starches. Swelling power of starches were influenced more by the temperature than by the pH. The order of the swelling power tendencies in different pHs were pH 10>pH 2>pH 8>pH 4>pH 6.

Polyethylene glycol(PEG) 또는 polycaprolactone(PCP)을 예비 중합체로 사용하고 butanetriol trinitrate와 diethylene glycoldinitrate를 가소제로, cyclo-tetramethylene tetranitramine을 주산화제로 사용한 고체 추진제를 제조하여 이들의 기계적 성질을 증진시키기 위한 연구를 하였다. PEG의 일부를 PCP로 대체 시 추진제의 기계적 성질은 증가하며 PCP만 사용시 추진제의 최대 인장 강도는 PEG만 사용시 보다 약 17%, 최대 응력 하에서의 신율은 약 59% 그리고 탄성 계수는 약 9% 증가한다. 그러나 예비 중합체로 PCP만을 사용한 추진제는 4$0^{\circ}C$, 90% 상대 습도하에서 보관시 추진제의 경도 변화 실험에서 6주 후에 경도가 0이 되며, 위의 조건하에서 보관 기간에 따른 PCP 바인더의 부피 팽윤 실험에 의해 초기 부피 팽윤 비와 팽윤비의 변화 속도가 PEG를 혼용한 바인더보다 크므로 PCP 사용시 수분에 대한 안정성은 저하됨을 알 수 있었다.

Cellulose I에서 Cellulose II로의 결정변태기구를 X선 및 전자선 회절법과 현미경적 방법을 이용하여 구명하였다. X선 회절 결과, Na-cellulose I을 고온에서 수세할 경우 Cellulose I과 Cellulose II의 혼합형 회절도가, 저온에서 수세할 경우 Na-cellulose IV의 회절도가 얻어졌다. 전자선회절 결과, 고온수세의 시료는 Cellulose I과 Cellulose II의 혼합형이 저온수세의 시료는 Cellulose II의 회절도가 얻어졌다. 또한 고온수세 시료의 전자선회절도로부터 섬유벽의 내측부가 외측부보다 재생 Cellulose I의 양이 많은 것이 확인되었다. 따라서 알칼리 팽윤시 섬유벽내에는 불완전한 팽윤이 발생하는데 그 정도는 내측부가 더욱 심한 것으로 생각된다. 이때 형성되는 불완전한 Na-cellulose I 은 고온 수세의 경우는 탈수에 의해 Cellulose I로, 저온수세의 경우는 수화에 의해 Cellulose II로 변태되지만 완전히 팽윤된 Na-cellulose I은 Cellulose I로 재생될 수 없는 것으로 생각된다. 현미경적 실험결과, mercerization과정에서 cellulose 분자쇄의 packing이나 conformation의 변화와 관련하여 microfibril 의 흐트러짐은 발생하지 않는 것으로 생각되었다.

In this research montmorillonite intercalations complexes as organophilic clay compounds which have very different properties as the starting clay mineral were synthesized by the substitution of metal ions which exist in the montmorillonite layers with the organic cations which have long alkyl chain by the cation exchange reaction. Thereafter the obtained products dried in high vacuum were treated with the various swelling liquids such as dist. water, methanol, acetone, ether and acetonitrile in order to know the swelling behaviour of the synthesized complexes. Especially for this research Korean and Turkish clays were selected to compare the intercalations complexes of both clays and their swelling behaviour.

The purpose of this study was to find the optimal swelling method and condition for seacucumber to improve its taste and texture to accomodate the rapid increase of consumption. Another purpose was to try to determine an easy way to soak dried sea-cucumber under different conditions, and identify the influence of swelling time on the texture of sea-cucumber, in order to reduce preparation time and provide basic data for easy handling. After boiling or steaming for six different periods including 5, 15, 30 and 60 minutes the texture of the sea-cucumbers were compared, For the additive test, the sea-cucumbers were boiling for 30 minutes period with 4 different additives and the textures were compared, Since the texture is an important characteristic of sea-cucumber, there are many variables that affect this property including the, drying and preservation methods. This study provides basic understanding of the influence of the heating method, time and temperature on the swelling of sea-cucumber for handy use at processing sites.

Metformin is a recommended first-line therapy drug for type 2 diabetes patients. However, compared to other oral antidiabetic drugs (OAD), metformin has a large unit dosage, with bioavailability of 40-60%. This limiting bioavailability is because metformin is absorbed only in the upper gastrointestinal tract as a BCS class 3 drug. Hence, we propose that applying the Gastroretentive Drug Delivery System (GRDDS) and extending drug release time in the stomach will result in improved bioavailability. We selected the swelling type delivery system, as it is considered the most stable gastroretention technology compared to other GRDDSs. We modified the swelling excipient by using a natural swelling excipient to form a swelling tablet made of carrageenan and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC). Our results indicate that the swelling complex tablet made of carrageenan and HPMC has a good swelling ability and shows required sustained release in a dissolution pattern. In addition, the carrageenan complex has a better swelling ability than the marketed metformin tablet, as determined by the ratio, (swelling ability)/(excipient weight). Taken together, our results indicate that the carrageenan complex can be developed as a good swelling excipient. Further optimizations are required for the commercialization of the carrageenan complex.
