Food nanoemulsion systems consisting of water and oleoresin capsicum (OC), polyoxythylene sorbitan esters (Tween 20, 40, 60, and 80), propylene glycol (PG), sucrose monostearate (SM), and their corresponding mixtures were formulated to use as food vehicles. Tween 80 produced OC nanoemulsions with stable dispersions as one-phase systems, and the dertermined emulsification efficiencies clearly distinguished the ability of the various surfactants to emulsify OC. The nanoemulsions were prepared by both ultrasonication and self-assembly, and the nanoemulsion areas were determined using phase diagrams by measuring the sizes of the emulsions. One-phase nanoemulsions were presented, with a multiple cloudy region and phase separation that were dependent on the particle size of the emulsion. The OC nanoemulsions prepared by ultrasonication using systems of OC/Tween 80/water, OC/Tween 80/water+PG, and OC/Tween 80/water+SM, resulted in particle sizes ranging from 15 to 100 nm. Finally, the nanoemulsions maintained their initial sizes during storage, ranging from 65 to 92 nm.

최근 Ruthenium (Ru) 은 높은 화학적 안정성, 누설전류에 대한 높은 저항성, 저유전체와의 높은 안정성 등과 같은 특성으로 인해 금속층-유전막-금속층 캐패시터의 하부전극으로 각광받고 있다. 또한 Cu와의 우수한 Adhesion 특성으로 인해 Cu 배선에서의 Cu 확산 방지막으로도 주목받고 있다. 그러나 이렇게 형성된 Ru 하부전극의 각 캐패시터간의 분리와 평탄화를 위해서는 CMP 공정이 도입이 필요하다. 이러한 CMP 공정에 공급되는 Slurry 에는 부식액, pH 적정제, 연마입자 등이 첨가되는데 이때 연마입자가 응집하여 Slurry의 분산 안전성 저하에 영향을 줄수 있다. 이로 인해 응집된 Slurry는 Scratch와 Delamination 과 같은 표면 결함을 유발할 수 있으며, Slurry의 저장 안정성을 저하시켜 Slurry의 물리적 화학적 특성을 변화시킬 수 있다. 그리하여 본 연구에서는 Ru CMP Slurry에서의 Surfactant와 같은 분산 안정제에 따른 Surface tension, Zeta potential, Particle size, Sedimentation의 분석을 통해 Slurry 안정성에 대한 영향을 살펴보았다. 그 결과 pH9 조건의 31ppm Dispersant 농도에서 50%이상의 Sedimentation 상승효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 선택된 Surfactant가 첨가된 Ru CMP Slurry를 제조하여 Ru wafer의 Static etch rate, Passivation film thickness 와 Wettability를 비교해 보았다. 그리고 CMP 공정을 실시하여 Ru의 Removal rate와 TEOS에대한 Selectivity를 측정해 보았다.

SLES를 주성분으로 사용한 액체세정제는 공기 중에 노출하여 방치하는 경우 표면에 피막이 형성되는 경우가 있다. 이는 제형 중의 수분이 증발하면서 세정제 주성분인 계면활성제의 농도변화로 인한 미셀의 상변화로 판단된다. SLES는 30~60% 영역에서 강한 육방정계 액정상이 나타나고, 60% 이상에서는 라멜라 액정상을 보인다. 본 연구에서는 SLES 주성분으로 사용된 액체세정제의 표면 겔링 현상은 내용물에서 수분 증발로 인하여 발생하는 현상이다. 액체세정제에서 수분이 증발되면서 계면활성제의 농도가 높아지는 결과였다. 표면 겔링 상태는 편광현미경으로 관찰한 결과 혼합 계면활성제 시스템의 액정상으로 확인되었다. 결론적으로 SLES를 주성분으로 사용하는 처방에서 겔링 필름 형성을 방지하기 위하여 수용성이 좋은 AOS를 증량하고 액정형성을 방지할 수 있는 이차 계면활성제인 SAS를 도입하고, 하이드로트로프로 SXS와 PEG1500을 적용하였다. 이와 같이 개선된 액체세정제 처방4와 5는 공기 중에 노출되어도 표면에 피막이 형성되는 겔링현상을 방지할 수 있었다.

Contamination of microcystins, a family of heptapeptide hepatotoxins, in eutrophic water bodies is a worldwide problem. Due to their poisoning effects on animals and humans, there is a requirement to characterize and quantify all microcystins present in a sample. As microcystins are, for most part, intracellular toxins produced by some genera of cyanobacteria, lysing cyanobacterial cells to release all microcystins is considered an important step. To date, although many cell lysis methods have been used, little work has been conducted comparing the results of those different methods. In this study, various methods for cell lysis and toxin extraction from the cell lysates were investigated, including sonication, bead beating, freeze/thaw, lyophilization and lysing with TritonX-100 surfactant. It was found that lyophilization, followed by extraction with 75% methanol, was the most effective for extracting toxins from Microcystis aeruginosa cells. Another important step prior to the analysis is removing impurities and concentrating the target analyte. For these purposes, a C18 Sep-Pak solid phase extraction cartridge was used, with the percentage of the eluent methanol also evaluated. As a result, methanol percentages higher than 75% appeared to be the best eluting solvent in terms of microcystin-leucine-arginine (MC-LR) recovery efficiency for the further chromatographic and mass spectrometric analyses.

이 연구는 국산화 한 액정형성 유화제에 대하여 선진사의 액정형성제를 사용하여 pH변화에 따른 안정성에 관한 것이다. 국산화한 액정유화제는 SugarCrystal-LC ((주)바이오뷰텍, 한국)를 사용하였고, 비교시료는 Nikkomulese-LC (니코캐미칼즈, 일본)와 Alacel-LC (Croda 캐미칼즈, 영국)를 사용하여 액정형성의 생성력을 실험하였다. 액정형성은 산성 (pH=4.2)에서, 중성 (pH=7.0) 그리고 알칼리성 (pH=11.7)에서 액정구조가 생성되는지 현미경으로 확인하였다. 또한 교반 속도에 따른 액정의 형성 입자를 편광현미경으로 관찰 하였다. 교반 시간은 모두 동일하게 3분 동안 Homo-mixer로 교반하였고, 교반속도는 2500rpm, 3500 rpm, 4500rpm으로 증가시켜 액정의 상태를 관찰하였다. 그 결과 한국산 계면활성제가 2종의 외국산 보다 안정하고, 선명한 액정구조가 형성되는 것을 알 수 있었고, 영국산의 경우 유화입경이 분균일하여 불안정한 상태를 보였다. 일본산의 경우, 한국산과 유사한 구조와 성능을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 한국산 계면활성제는 외국산과 비교하여 우수한 유화성능을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 응용분야로 국산화한 Sugar Crystal-LC 계면활성제를 사용하여 액정크림, 로션, 아이크림 등 다양한 제형개발이 가능하고, 화장품산업은 물론 의약품산업 및 제약산업에서 피부외용제의 유화기술로 폭넓게 응용이 가능할 것으로 기대한다.

Pyrolysis oil (PO), also known as Bio crude oil (BCO), has the potential to displace significant amounts of fuels that are currently derived from petroleum sources. PO has been regarded as an alternative fuel for petroleum fuels to be used in diesel engine. However, the use of PO in a diesel engine requires modifications due to low energy density, high water contents, low acidity, and high viscosity of the PO. One of the easiest way to adopt PO to diesel engine without modifications is emulsification of PO with the fuels that has higher cetane number. However, PO that has high amount of polar chemicals is immiscible with non polar hydrocarbons of diesel. Thus, to stabilize a homogeneous phase of diesel-PO blends, a proper surfactant should be used. In this study, a DI diesel engine operated with diesel and diesel-PO emulsions was experimentally investigated. Performance and gaseous & particle emission characteristics of a diesel engine fuelled by diesel-PO emulsions were examined. Results showed that stable engine operation was possible with the emulsions and engine output power was comparable to diesel operation.

The root of Angelica gigas Nakai (AGN) is used as a traditional herbal medicine in Korea for the treatment of many diseases. However, a major challenge associated with the usage of the active compounds from AGN is their poor water solubility. Therefore, this work aimed to enhance the solubility of active compounds by a chemical (viz. surfactant) and physical (hot melt extrusion) crosslinking method (CPC). Infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (FT-IR) revealed multiple peaks in extrudate solids representing new functional groups including carboxylic acid, alkynes and benzene derivatives. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis of the extrudate showed lower glass transition temperature (Tg) and lower enthalpy (${\Delta}H$) (Tg: $43^{\circ}C$; ${\Delta}H$: <6 (J/g)) compared to the non-extrudate (Tg $68.5^{\circ}C$; ${\Delta}H$: 123.2) formulations. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed amorphization of crystal materials in extrudate solid. In addition, nanonization, enhanced solubility and higher extraction of phenolic compounds were achieved in the extrudate solid. Among the different extrudates, acetic acid- and Span 80-mediated formulations showed superior extractions. We conclude that the CPC method successfully enhanced the production of amorphous nano dispersions from extrudate solid formulations.

The iron oxides nanoparticles and iron oxide with other compounds are of importance in fields including biomedicine, clinical and bio-sensing applications, corrosion resistance, and magnetic properties of materials, catalyst, and geochemical processes etc. In this work we describe the preparation and investigation of the properties of coated magnetic nanoparticles consisting of the iron oxide core and organic modification of the residue. These fine iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared in air environment by the co-precipitation method using of $Fe^{2+}$: $Fe^{3+}$ where chemical precipitation was achieved by adding ammonia aqueous solution with vigorous stirring. During the synthesis of nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution, the techniques of separation and powdering of nanoparticles into rather monodisperse fractions are observed. This is done using controlled precipitation of particles from surfactant stabilized solutions in the form organic components. It is desirable to maintain the particle size within pH range, temperature, solution ratio wherein the particle growth is held at a minimum. The iron oxide nanoparticles can be well dispersed in an aqueous solution were prepared by the mentioned co-precipitation method. Besides the iron oxide nanowires were prepared by using similar method. These iron oxide nanoparticles and nanowires have controlled average size and the obtained products were investigated by X-ray diffraction, FESEM and other methods.
