Manufacture of nancomposites has simple process for developing nanocomposites due to the increasing applications using nanofillers. This work studied nanofiller coated glass fiber for reinforcing material with good wetting and conductivity and the morphology of nanofiller coated glass fiber was analyzed by FE-SEM. The durability of reinforced glass fiber was investigated with different shapes of nanofillers using sonication rinsing method. Fatigue test was performed to evaluate the adhesion of reinforcing interface and stability of nanofiller coating layer for single fiber reinforced composites. Apparent modulus and conductivity of nanofiller coating layer were evaluated to realize multifunctional of nanocomposites. Fiber type of nanofiller was better than plate type due to better cohesion between fiber and nanofillers. At last, the stability of fiber type nanofiller of coating layer has better durability and conductivity than plate type case.

This study was to improve cosmetical activity of thiamine di-lauryl sulfate (TDS) by encapsulation of nanoparticle with lecithin. Results showed that most of the nanoparticles containing the TDS were well formed in round shape with below 150 ~ 200 nm diameter as well as they were fairly stable in various pH ranges by measuring zeta potentials. The nanoparticles of TDS resulted in 85% cell viability of human normal fibroblast cells (CCD-986sk) when added at the highest concentration (1.0 mg/mL). The nanoparticles of Acer mono sap showed highest free radical scavengering effect as 88.1% in adding sample (1.0 mg/mL), compared to TDS solution of non-encapsulation (81.6%). The nanoparticles of TDS reduced the expression of MMP-1 on UV-irradiated CCD-986sk cells down to as 41.4%. The TDS solution and nanoparticles showed significant anti-microbial activities agaionst the salmonella typhimurium and listeria monocytogenes at 5 and 6 days as compared with control. Anti-microbial activities of TDS nanoparticles were similar to positive control. These results indicated that TDS nanoparticles may be a source for functional cosmetic agents capable of improving cosmetical activity such as antioxidant, whitening, and anti-wrinkling effects and can be further developed as natural preservative in cosmetics.

We used the discrete-sectional model to analyze the particle growth by coagulation of particles in silane plasma reactor, considering the Gaussian distribution function for particle charges. The effects of process conditions such as monomer size and mass generation rate of monomers on particle growth in plasma reactor were analyzed theoretically/ Based on the Gaussian distribution function of particle charges, the large particles of more than 40 nm in size are almost found to be charged negatively, but some fractions of small, tiny particles are in neutral state or even charged positively. As the particle size and surface area increase with time by particle coagulation, the number of charges per particle increases with time. As the large particles are generated by particle coagulation, the particle size distribution become bimodal. The results of discrete-sectional model for the particle growth in silane plasma reactor were in close agreement with the experimental results by Shiratani et al. [3] for the same plasma conditions. We believe the model equations for the particle charge distribution and coagulation between particles can be applied to understand the nano-sized particle growth in plasma reactor.

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) nanoparticles have emerged as novel nanomaterials for bio-imaging applications due to its unique layered structure, physicochemical properties, and good biocompatibility. Bio-imaging is one of the most important fields for medical applications in clinical diagnostics and therapeutics of various diseases. Enhanced diagnostic techniques are needed to realize new paradigm for next-generation personalized medicine through nanoscale materials. When nanotechnology is introduced into bio-imaging system, nanoparticle probes can endow imaging techniques with enhanced ability to obtain information about biological system at the molecular level. In this review, we summarize structural features of LDH nanoparticles with current issues of bio-imaging system. LDH nanoparticle probes are also discussed through in vitro as well as in vivo studies in various bio-imaging techniques including fluorescence imaging, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and computed X-ray tomography (CT), which will have the potential in the development of the advanced nanoparticles with high sensitivity and selectivity.

환경적으로 지속 가능한 발전을 실현하기 위해 필수적인 환경오염물질 배출제어에 있어서 가장 효과적인 방법 중 하나가 환경촉매를 사용하는 것이다. 지난 20여 년 동안, 환경촉매의 사용은 주로 이동오염원의 배출물질제어에 국한되다가 점차 폐기물 정화, 에너지 산업, 정유 산업, 나아가 실내오염 정화 등의 환경과 관련된 산업으로 점차 확대되고 있는 실정이다. 환경촉매는 나노 입자를 만드는 기술 (Nano Technology, NT)의 환경분야 (Environmental Technology, ET)에의 적용이라는 융합기술 (Converging Technology, CT)로서 새로운 의미를 지닌다.(중략)

[ $ZnO-Bi_2O_3-Al_2O_3-B_2O_3-SiO_2$ ] nano-glass has been prepared by sol-gel method. The mean particle size was 60.3 nm with narrow size distribution. The nano-galss has been used as a sintering aid for the densification of the NiZnCu ferrites. The ferrite was sintered with nano-glass sintering aids at $840{\sim}900^{\circ}C$, 2 h and the initial permeability, quality factor, density, and saturation magnetization were also measured. The initial permeability of 0.5 wt% nano-glass added toroidal sample for NiZnCu ferrites sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ was 193.3 at 1 MHz. The initial permeability and saturation magnetization were increased with increasing annealing temperature. As a result, $ZnO-Bi_2O_3-Al_2O_3-B_2O_3-SiO_2$ nano-glass systems were found to be useful as sintering aids for multilayer chip inductors.

전자종이에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 전자잉크의 pigment 소재에 대한 연구가 최근 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 많은 재료 중 TiO$_2$는 비표면적이 크고 열적안정성 및 명암도가 뛰어나 전자잉크 재료로 많은 장점을 지닌다. TiO$_2$ 나노 입자를 전자종이에 적용할 경우 우수한 디스플레이 구현을 위해 높은 전기영동 특성 및 분산 안정성이 요구되어진다 이를 위해 표면 개질된 나노 크기의 루틸상 TiO$_2$ 입자의 제조 및 분산에 대한 최적의 공정조건에 대해 연구하였다. 10$0^{\circ}C$ 이하의 저온에서 가열하여 균일하게 침전시키는 저온균일침전법(HPPLT)으로 루틸 결정상의 TiO$_2$ 나노입자를 제조하였다. 제조된 TiO$_2$ 나노 입자와 용매의 비중을 맞추기 위해 비중이 낮은 투명성 polymer로 코팅을 한 후 비중병을 이용해 비중을 확인하였다. 그 후 copolymer block을 가지는 분산제를 TiO$_2$ 입자 기준 0.5-5wt% 범위에서 저유전율을 가지는 다양한 유기용매에 첨가하여 최적의 분산 및 전기영동 조건을 찾았다. 실험을 통한 분산안정성 및 전기영동 특성 평가를 위해 ζ-potential analyzer와 입도 분석기를 이용하였고 코팅된 입자의 표면상태는 FT-IR을 통해 측정하였다.

In this study, the combustion characteristics of paraffin blended fuel on aluminum particle size were investigated. The combustion experiments were carried out using aluminum particles with an average particle size of 100 nm and $8{\mu}m$ and microcrystalline paraffin wax (Sasol 0907). A series of comparison was conducted on the regression rate, the pressure curve and the characteristic velocity of pure paraffin and paraffin blended fuels with aluminum particles. It was found that the micro-sized particles enhance the regression rate as the oxidizer mass flux increased. However, the nano-sized particles decrease the regression rate as the oxidizer mass flux is increased.

The preparation and properties of emulsions stabilized by the adsorption of solid particles at the oil-water interface are reviewed. Comparison is made with the behaviour of surfactant-stabilized emulsions. Many of the properties of Pickering emulsions are attributed to the large free energy of adsorption for particles. The main differences is due to the irreversible adsorption of particles to the interface. Phase inversion from w/o (water-in-oil) to o/w (oil-in-water) can be brought by increasing the volume fraction of water. Hydrophilic particles tend to form o/w emulsion whereas hydrophobic particles form w/o emulsion. The contact angle at the oil-water interface is main parameter to decide the emulsion type. The aspects of stability of Pickering emulsions are in contrast to general emulsions in some points. The possibility using Pickering emulsions for cosmetics is also proposed.
