  • In situ gelling devices, as they enter the body, are dosage forms in the shape of the sol but turn into gel types under physiological circumstances. Transition from sol to gel is contingent on one or a mixture of diverse stimuli, such as transition of pH control of temperature, irradiation by UV, by the occurrence of certain ions or molecules. Such characteristic features may be commonly employed in drug delivery systems for the production of bioactive molecules for continuous delivery vehicles. The technique of in situ gelling has been shown to be impactful in enhancing the potency of local or systemic drugs supplied by non-parenteral pathways, increasing their period of residence at the absorption site. Formulation efficacy is further improved with the use of mucoadhesive agents or the use of polymers with both in situ gelling properties and the ability to bind with the mucosa/mucus. The most popular and common approach in recent years has provided by the use of polymers with different in situ gelation mechanisms for synergistic action between polymers in the same formulation. In situ gelling medicine systems in recent decades have received considerable interest. Until administration, it is in a sol-zone and is able to form gels in response to various endogenous factors, for e.g elevated temperature, pH changes and ions. Such systems can be used in various ways for local or systemic supply of drugs and successfully also as vehicles for drug-induced nano- and micro-particles. In this review we will discuss about various aspects about use of these in situ gels as novel drug delivery systems.

  • The microstructure of Cu-15 wt%Ag composites fabricated by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) with intermediate heat treatment at $320^{\circ}C$ was investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations. Ag precipitates with a thickness of 20-40 nm were observed in the eutectic region of the Cu-15 wt%Ag composite solution treated at $700^{\circ}C$ before ECAP. The Cu matrix and Ag precipitates had a cube on cube orientation relationship. ECAPed composites exhibited ultrafine-grained microstructures with the shape and distribution dependent on the processing routes. For route A in which the sample was pressed without rotation between each pass, the Cu and Ag grains were elongated along the shear direction and many micro-twins were observed in elongated Cu grains as well as in Ag filaments. The steps were observed on coherent twin boundaries in Cu grains. For route Bc in which the sample was rotated by 90 degrees after each pass, a subgrain structure with misorientation of 2-4 degree by fragmentation of the large Cu grains were observed. For route C in which the sample was rotated by 180 degrees after each pass, the microstructure was similar to that of the route A sample. However, the thickness of the elongated grains along the shear direction was wider than that of the route A sample and the twin density was lower than the route A sample. It was found that more microtwins were formed in ECAPed Cu-15 wt%Ag than in the drawn sample. Grain boundaries were observed in relatively thick and long Ag filaments in Cu-15 wt%Ag ECAPed by route C, indicating the multi-crystalline nature of Ag filaments.

  • 화장품 산업은 정밀화학분야로 기술집약적인 산업이며 세계적으로 지속적인 성장률을 보이고 있다. 이러한 화장품 산업에서 시장 점유율을 높이기 위해 과거에는 기능적 측면이 주로 강조가 되어 왔으나, 최근에는 국내외적으로 화장품의 우수한 성능과 더불어 시각적 효과로 소비자의 관심을 유도하려는 노력이 고조되고 있다. 이에 따라 화장품 제조업체에서는 화장품 에멀젼을 캡슐화하고 에멀젼 캡슐의 형태, 색상 및 질감 등을 다양하게 변형시킬 수 있는 기술을 다방면으로 시도하고 있는 상황이다. 에멀젼을 캡슐화하는 기본 방식은 에멀젼 저장소에 에멀젼을 채워 넣고 노즐을 통해 에멀젼을 낙하시키는 방법으로 업체에서 가장 쉽게 이용할 수 있다. 그러나, 에멀젼을 캡슐레이션하는 기존 방식은 캡슐의 사이즈를 줄이는 데 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 기존 방식의 한계를 이론 및 수치해석방법으로 고찰하였으며, 이러한 방식의 문제를 해결하기 위한 대안책으로 미세유체역학(Microfluidics)을 적용하기 위하여 마이크로 채널 내에서 발생하는 에멀젼 캡슐레이션 현상을 연구하였다.

  • Objectives : We tried to establish standards for genuine by discriminating 3 kinds of pollen and spore herbs that are highly to be mixed with each other. Using an scanning electron microscope, we prepare a standard for discriminating external morphological characters of minute herbs, thereby contributing to the stable supply of genuine herbal medicines. Methods : Standard samples were confirmed by literature review on external morphological characteristics of original plants and herbal medicines, and collection and identification of original plants. The herbal medicines on the market were purchased and classified with using naked eye observation and magnifier. Finally, micromorphological identifications were conducted using an scanning electron microscope. Results : 1. Pini Pollen was clearly distinguished by its relatively medium size and a pollen grain with two swollen reticulate sacci at both ends. The verrucate ornamentation on the exine surface of the corpus and a sunken leptoma germ pore may be used as a discrimination criteria. 2. Typhae Pollen was distinguished by its relatively small size and a saccus on the end of a pollen grain. Reticulate ornamentation of exine surface of the corpus, and a slightly clear ulcerate germ pore can be used as a discrimination criteria. 3. Lygodii Spora was distinguished by its relatively large triangular-ovate shape and trichotomous fissure. Verrucate-tuberculate ornamentation of exine surface and trilete aperture could be used as a discrimination criteria. Conclusion : These results indicate that the use of electron microscopy is very effective for discriminating the external morphology of minute herbal medicines.

  • 폴리염화비닐(polyvinylchloride, PVC)-tetrahydrofuran (THF) 용액에 PVC 비용매의 첨가와 박막 건조 공정이 PVC 박막에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 사용된 비용매는 알코올과 비알코올계로 구성되었으며, 첨가에 따른 PVC 박막의 표면 거칠기와 표면 형상의 차별성에 따른 소수성 성질을 비교하였다. PVC-THF 용액 제조과정에 발생하는 용액 내 기포 함유가 박막의 표면 구조에 미치는 영향이 큼을 확인하였다. 상대적인 고농도 PVC-THF 용액에서 코팅 박막의 정상적 표면 물성을 구현하기 위하여 적절한 박막 건조법의 선택이 요구된다. 알코올계 비용매를 첨가할 경우 과립형 형상의 다공성 표면을 갖는 PVC 박막이 얻어져 초소수성 특성을 보인다. 비용매에 대한 PVC-THF 용액의 부피 비는 코팅 박막의 표면 형상에 영향을 주며, 비용매 첨가량이 많을수록 초소수성 PVC 박막을 형성하는 데 유리하다.

  • As the 4th industrial age approaches, the demand for semiconductors is increasing enough to be used in all electronic devices. At the same time, semiconductor technology is also developing day by day, leading to ultraprecision and low power consumption. Semiconductors that keep getting smaller generate heat because the energy density increases, and the generated heat changes the shape of the semiconductor package, so it is important to manage. The temperature change is not only self-heating of the semiconductor package, but also heat generated by external damage. If the package is deformed, it is necessary to manage it because functional problems and performance degradation such as damage occur. The package burn in test in the post-process of semiconductor production is a process that tests the durability and function of the package in a high-temperature environment, and heat dissipation performance can be evaluated. In this paper, we intend to review a new material formulation that can improve the performance of the adapter, which is one of the parts of the test socket used in the burn-in test. It was confirmed what characteristics the basic base showed when polyamide, a high-molecular material, and alumina, which had high thermal conductivity, were mixed for each magnification. In this study, functional evaluation was also carried out by injecting an adapter, a part of the test socket, at the same time as the specimen was manufactured. Verification of stiffness such as tensile strength and flexural strength by mixing ratio, performance evaluation such as thermal conductivity, and manufacturing of a dummy device also confirmed warpage. As a result, it was confirmed that the thermal stability was excellent. Through this study, it is thought that it can be used as basic data for the development of materials for burn-in sockets in the future.
