Solid dispersion (SD) system of everolimus (EVR) with Gelucire 50/13 (Stearoyl polyoxyl-32 glycerides) was prepared using melt granulation technique with the aim of improving the physicochemical properties and dissolution rate. The solid state characterization using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray powder diffraction, indicated that the drug was homogeneously distributed in the surfactant carrier in a stable amorphous form. The dissolution rate of EVR from the optimized SD composed of the drug, Gelucire 50/13 and microcrystalline cellulose in a weight ratio of 1:5:10, was markedly rapid and higher than that from the drug powder and the market product (Afinitor$^{(R)}$, Novartis Pharmaceuticals) in all dissolution mediums tested from pH 3.0 to pH 6.8. The results of this study suggest that formulation of SD with Gelucire 50/13 using melt granulation procedure may be a simple and promising approach for improving the dissolution rate and oral absorption of the anti-cancer agent without the need for using an organic solvent.

Acrylic copolymer was synthesized from 2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate and alkylmethacrylate containing long chain hydrocarbon group. To facilitate emulsification in water, acrylic copolymer was treated with acetic acid, and therefore acetated acrylic copolymer was produced. Acetated acrylic copolymer was perfectly emulsified in water and showed increased emulsion stability. Polymer as a cement dispersion agent(PDCM-PSD) was prepared by blending the newly synthesized acetates acrylic copolymer with sodium gluconate, oleic acid, and triethanolamine. The applicability of the blended polymer was examined, and it was found that the effects of dispersion and water-proof(0.3~0.5) were excellent.

The primary aim of this study is to investigate new semi-abrasive free slurry including acid colloidal silica and hydrogen peroxide for copper chemical-mechanical planarization (CMP). In general, slurry for copper CMP consists of colloidal silica as an abrasive, organic acid as a complex-forming agent, hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizing agent, a film forming agent, a pH control agent and several additives. We developed new semi-abrasive free slurry (SAFS) including below 0.5% acid colloidal silica. We evaluated additives as stabilizers for hydrogen peroxide as well as accelerators in tantalum nitride CMP process. We also estimated dispersion stability and Zeta potential of the acid colloidal silica with additives. The extent of enhancement in tantalum nitride CMP was verified through anelectrochemical test. This approach may be useful for the application of single and first step copper CMP slurry with one package system.

This study focuses on the effects of dispersion method of a nanoparticle in a polymer matrix such as melt mixing, solution blending, and in-situ polymerization on the physical properties of the nanocomposites. Introduction of a nanoparticle to a polymer resulted in some unusual physical properties. In some cases the nanoparticle played a role of a nucleating agent, leading to decreasing induction time to crystallization. In addition, the dispersion state of the nanoparticle in the polymer matrix also had a significant influence on the physical properties of the nanocomposites. Hence the method of introducing the nanoparticle to the polymer made contribution to the rheological properties of the nanocomposite systems.

Mechanical properties of aluminum-matrix composites, fabricated by dispersion of fine SiC particulates of which size was less than 1 ${\mu}m$ into 2024 and 7075 aluminum alloys, have been investigated. Homogeneous mixing between the matrix and SiC particulates could be achieved by jar milling for 8 hours with appropriate processing agent. At temperatures below 473K, high-temperature tensile strength of the composites was higher than that of the 2024 and 7075 aluminum alloys which were used as matrix materials. However, tensile strength of the composites was approximated to that of the matrix materials at 573K. Thus, it could be suggested that effects of particle dispersion on tensile strength of aluminum alloys was diminished at temperatures higher than 573K.

In this study, high-penetration asphalt with low greenhouse gas emissions was used in the asphalt mixing process to reduce the carbon emissions during the reaction due to its capacity to be produced even at low temperatures. In effect, cationic, anionic, and non-ionic dispersants were added and mixed in different feeding ratios, seeking an effective dispersion of the modifiers (SIS, PS, TPEE, and SEBS) into the high-penetration asphalt matrix and forming an asphalt binder with a melting point of 120 ℃. The compatibility of the modifiers and the high-penetration asphalt was examined using SEM and DSC techniques, and the role of NDP-1 as a dispersant was carefully investigated with respect to dissolution time. The analyses showed that: (1) the dispersibility of the asphalt binder is good when the non-ionic dispersant is used; (2) as the concentration of the non-ionic dispersant increases, the dissolution time decreases and the domain size contracts; (3) the ND70-PS has the shortest dissolution time, the lowest agglomeration rate, and a single Tg value.

Present silica dispersing agents are based mainly on fatty acid derivatives of Zn, K and mixture of fatty acid and metallic soaps are used to increase activity. The viscosity of silica filled rubber is lowered by Zn-K soap type silica dispersing agent, thus fluidity of hydrocarbon chains and processibility is improved. Silica dispersing agent should not exert an influence on chracteristics of vulcanization. But scorch and curing time is shortened by Zn-K soap type silica dispersing agent. A newly developed silica dispersing agent, which is a nonmetal type agent, reduced the viscosity and hardness of silica compounding rubber, and the highly increased degree of dispersion of silica is caused by interaction of silica and rubber. Also it did not affect the curing characteristics and scorch stability of silica compounding rubber.

$BaTiO_3$ is typical ferromagnetic materials with dielectric constant of above 200. $BaTiO_3$ nanoparticles applications are available for multiple purposes such as nanocapacitors, ferroelectric random access memories, and so on. Applications are is diverse from the dispersion of nanoparticles depending on the route of synthesis. In this study, $BaTiO_3$ nanoparticles were synthesized by two different methods such as oxalate method and sol-gel process (ambient condition sol method). Particle size and dispersion condition were studied according to the preparation method and capping agent. Poly vinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) was used as a capping agent in oxalate method and tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAH) used as a capping agent in sol-gel process each. Cubic crystal structure of $BaTiO_3$ phase could be confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy was employed for the confirmation of the capping agent and $BaTiO_3$ nanoparticles. The particle size and distribution analysis was also performed by particles size analyzer and scanning electron microscope.

This work investigates the size and dispersion characteristics of silver nanoparticles synthesized by a liquid phase reduction method using PAA. The experimental variables were the molecular weight and doses of the PAA, reducing agent, dispersant, and organic solvent (ethanol-acetone). UV-visible spectrophotometer results confirm the formation of the silver particles, and SEM indicates size in the nanometer range. As the ultrasonication time increases, there is a tendency toward smaller agglomerates of nanoparticles. The agglomerates were dispersed into 1-5 agglomerates of particles by ultrasonication for 3 hours or more. Relatively spherical nanoparticles were produced with a completely homogeneous dispersion and size of 49.56-85.75 nm by ultrasonication using BYK-192, a dispersant containing copolymer with a pigment affinic group. The average size of the silver nanoparticles was increased to 36.82, 50.66, and 56.06 nm with increasing molecular weight of PAA. Also, the size of the nanoparticles increased with the capping of PAA on the surfaces of the nanoparticles when increasing the amount of PAA. The addition of hydrazine as a reducing agent produced relatively small particles because many nuclei were created by the reduction reaction. The ethanol-acetone solvent helped with the regular arrangement of the silver nanoparticles.
