We have introduced the Pickering emulsion systems to generate novel confining geometries for the selforganization of monodisperse polymer microspheres using nanoparticle-stabilized emulsion droplets encapsulating the building block particles. Then, through the slow evaporation of emulsion phases by heating, these microspheres were packed into regular polyhedral colloidal clusters covered with nanoparticle-stabilizers made of silica. Furthermore, polymer composite colloidal clusters were burnt out leaving nonspherical hollow micro-particles, in which the configurations of the cluster structure were preserved during calcination. The selfassembled porous architectures in this study will be potentially useful in various applications such as novel building block particles or supporting materials for catalysis or gas adsorption.

Fullerene/polystyrene nanoparticles having the average size of 300 nm ~ 1 ${\mu}m$ were prepared by emulsion polymerization in aqueous medium. Poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) and potassium persulfate were used as a dispersant and an initiator, respectively. The contents of fullerene in the nanoparticle were controlled to be from 10 to 57 wt% by varying the feed ratio, which was confirmed by IR-spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analyses, and elemental analyses. Dynamic light scattering experiments revealed the particles have a broad size distribution. Further characterizations of the nanoparticles were performed by using SEM and TEM observation. The high content of fullerene in the particles will find applications in photovoltaic and organic semiconducting area.

Poly(${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone) nanocapsules(nanoPCL) containing phytoncide oil were synthesized by emulsion diffusion method using ethyl acetate as organic solvent. The influence of the degree of hydrolyzation of poly(vinyl acohol) used as an emulsion stabilizer, and the different weight ratio of core material to wall material on the particle size, morphology, and emulsion stability was investigated to design nanocapsules. The encapsulated nanoPCL were characterized by FT-IR spetrometry, Scanning electron microscope, Differential scanning calorimetry, and Thermogravimetry analysis, respectively.

본 연구에서는 화장품과 의약품 분야에서 항산화 물질로 널리 사용되고 있는 지용성 비타민인 vitamin E acetate (VEA, tocopheryl acetate)를 이용한 스킨토너 제형의 나노 입자 크기의 에멀젼을 제조하고, 이 에멀젼을 이용해 ICR outbred albino mice (12주령 약 50 g, 암컷) 피부로의 VEA 침투와 receptor phase 조성에 따른 VEA의 용해도 차이에 대한 실험을 수행하였다. VEA를 0.07 wt% 함유한 nano-emulsion의 입자는 에탄올(ethanol, EtOH) 함량이 많을수록 그 크기가 커지는 경향을 보였고 계면활성제 함량이 많은 경우 크기가 작아지는 것을 확인하였다. Receptor phase에서 적절한 EtOH 함량이 VEA의 용해도를 증가시켰다. EtOH 함량이 5.0, 40.0 wt%인 경우보다 10.0, 20.0 wt% 일 때 VEA의 용해도가 높은 것을 확인하였다. Receptor phase의 계면활성제 종류 역시 VEA 용해도에 영향을 주는 것을 확인하였다. 화학구조와 HLB값이 다른 세 가지 계면활성제를 비교한 결과 sorbitan sesquioleate (Arlacel 83; HLB 3.7) > POE (10) hydrogenated castor oil (HCO-10; HLB 6.5) > sorbitan monostearate (Arlacel 60; HLB 4.7)순으로 VEA에 대한 용해도가 증가하였다. Receptor phase에 첨가된 산화 방지제 종류에 따라서도 VEA의 용해도는 차이를 보였다. Ascorbic acid를 함유한 시료는 EDTA-2Na가 첨가된 시료보다 VEA 용해도가 높았고 이 두 가지 산화방지제를 혼합한 시료와 초기에 비슷한 용해도를 보였지만 시간이 지남에 따라 양상이 달라져 최종 24 h 뒤에는 2배 정도의 높은 용해도를 보였다. 네 가지 다른 함량의 VEA 함유 nano-emulsion을 이용하여 쥐 피부 Franz diffusion cell 실험을 수행한 결과 EtOH 함량이 10.0 wt%인 경우에 128.8 ${\mu}g/cm^2$으로 VEA가 가장 높게 검출되었다. 이것은 초기 VEA 투입량인 220.057 ${\mu}g/cm^2$과 비교하여 58.53 %가 투과된 것으로 EtOH 함량이 1.0, 20.0 wt%인 에멀젼과 비교해 볼 때 각각 45 %, 15 %씩 높았다. 동일한 EtOH 농도로 제조한 에멀젼과 비교했을 때, 0.5 wt% 계면활성제를 사용한 에멀젼의 입자 크기는 계면활성제 0.007 wt% 에멀젼 입자 크기의 1/20 정도인 26.0 nm로 매우 작았다. 하지만 쥐 피부를 투과하는 VEA의 양은 54.848 ${\mu}g/cm^2$ 로 128.8 ${\mu}g/cm^2$ 의 투과량을 보인 0.007 wt% 계면활성제 함유 에멀젼보다 적었다. 이상의 결과들로 VEA를 함유한 nano-emulsion의 피부 투과도와 receptor phase 조성에 따른 VEA의 용해도 차이를 확인하였다. 이러한 결과들을 이용하여 VEA를 피부 내로 침투시키는 데 필요한 최적의 조건을 확립할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

In this study, We investigated the properites of nano-emulsions containing hydrogenated lecithin prepared by high pressure homogenizer. The size of droplet of emulsions prepared by homogenizer at various rpm (rotation per minute) was not measured due to the unstability of emulsions, however, the size of droplet of nano-emulsions prepared by high pressure homogenizer was around 300 nm and the appearance of emulsions was bluish. The stability of emulsions with various lecithin concentration was tested against time. POV (Peroxide value) of emulsions were plotted against time. POVs of emulsions prepared with an egg lecithin and a soy lecithin were increased with time, however, POV of emulsion with Lecinol S-$10^{(R)}$ was kept constant within 60 hours and at $60^{\circ}C$. In consumer test, the nano-emulsion showed higher affinity regardless of skin type. Both of irritation scores of emulsions were similar.

Nano-assisted inclusion separation of alkali metals from basic solutions was reported by inclusion-facilitated emulsion liquid membrane process. The novelty of this study is application of nano-baskets of calixarene in the selective and efficient separation of alkali metals as both the carrier and the surfactant. For this aim, four derivatives of $p-tert-calix$[4]arene bearing different sulfonamide moieties were synthesized and their inclusion-extraction parameters were optimized including the calixarene scaffold $\mathbf{3}$ (4 wt %) as the carrier/demulsifier, the commercial kerosene as diluent in membrane, sulphonic acid (0.2 M) and ammonium carbonate (0.4 M) as the strip and the feed phases, the phase and the treat ratios of 0.8 and 0.3, mixing speed (300 rpm), and initial solute concentration (100 mg/L). The selectivity of membrane over more than ten interfering cations was examined and the results reveled that under the optimized operating condition, the degree of inclusion-extraction of alkali metals was as high as 98-99%.

A novel approach for metabolite extraction and fingerprinting was introduced based upon the nano-baskets and emulsion liquid membrane-nuclear magnetic resonance (ELM-NMR) technique. The objective of this method is optimizing the fingerprints, minimizing the metabolic variation from analysis, increasing the likelihood differences, and obtaining the maximum extraction yield. Low molecular weight metabolites in rat serum were recovered by ELMs using 12 nano-baskets of calixarene, as both emulsifier and carrier. The yields of ELMs were optimized by the method of one-at-a-time. According to NMR data, the maximum metabolic variation was achieved using scaffold 4 (4 wt %), n-decane membrane, stirring rate of 300 rpm, treat and phase ratios of 0.3 and 0.8, respectively. The results revealed that some calixarenes tend to extract non-specific macromolecules; and repeatability of fingerprints for 7-mediated ELM was maximum and for 3-mediated ELM was minimum. The yield of extractions was obtained to be higher for n-decane and lower for carbon tetrachloride. Among different membranes, the fingerprints by chlorinated liquid membranes were more repeatable than using toluene or n-decane.

Poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone) nano/microcapsules(nmcPCL) containing phytoncide oil were synthesized by emulsion diffusion method using ethyl acetate and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) as an organic solvent and an emulsion stabilizer respectively. The influence of the degree of saponofication of the PVA and the weight ratio of core to wall materials was investigated to design nanocapsules in terms of particle size, morphology, and emulsion stability. The encapsulated nmcPCL were characterized by FT-IR spectrometry, particle size analyzer and scanning electron microscope. Mean size of nanocapsules prepared with PVA with a degree of saponofication of 87% was smaller than those of PVA with a degree of saponofication of 98.5% and the mean particle size of the capsules decreased with increasing core/shell ratio.

본 연구에서는 가용화법을 이용하여 점도가 낮은 나노에멀젼을 얻기 위해서 계면활성제와 오일을 변화시켰다. 헥실라우레이트, 세테아레스-20, PEG-40 수첨 피마자유, 글리세릴스테아레이트 및 스테아린산을 함유하며 입자 크기가 100 nm 정도 되는 나노에멀젼을 제조할 수 있었다. 이렇게 제조된 에멀젼은 안정하였으며 안정성은 입자의 변화로 측정하였다. 가용화법으로 안정한 나노에멀젼을 얻기 위해서는 에멀젼을 제조한 후 냉각과정이 중요한 변수로 작용하였다. 냉각과정을 신속하게 진행하였을 때 최대의 안정성을 보였다.

본 Styrene (ST)과 sodium 1-allyloxy-2-hydroxypropane sulfonate (COPS-I)의 무유화 공중합을 다양한 중합조건(ST, COPS-I, KPS, DVB의 농도 및 중합온도)하에서 실시하여, 165~550 nm 입자경 범위의 단분산 라텍스를 제조하였다. 일반적으로 COPS-I와 KPS의 농도, 중합온도, DVB의 농도 등의 변화는 고분자 입자수(입자경), 중합속도, 분자량, 제타전위 등에 밀접한 영향을 미침을 발견하였다. 입자수의 증가는 중합속도와 제타전위를 증가시켰으나 분자량은 감소하였다.
