Particle crushing is an important and essential factor in interpreting the strength and deformation properties of granular materials in the case of geotechnical problems related to soil crushability. As a recent field problem, the exploitation of offshore oil reserves in tropical and sub-tropical coastal shelf areas has shown that the behaviour of soils containing carbonates is markedly different from predominantly silica sands. In this study, as a first step in making a mechanical framework of granular materials incorporating the soil crushability, single particle fragmentation tests were carried out on four different types of sands in order to clarify the characteristics of the single particle fragmentation strength as related to soil crushability. The single particle strength was considered with the influence of the particle shapes, the amount of mineral components and the particle sizes. The soil particle strength corresponding $D_{50}$ of soil distribution curve has shown the lower value, the more the carbonate component and the more angular the particle shape.

In this study, the characteristics of electrostatic bag filter to overcome the main problems such as the high pressure drop and low collection efficiency for submicron particles are investigated with the experimental parameters. Especially, the experiment is carried out focusing on collection efficiency and pressure drop change mechanism as a function of discharge electrode shapes and filter properties, including the applied voltages, filtration velocities and particle concentrations, etc . Results show that the collection efficiency is improved over 30% for the fine particle below 1 pm and pressure drop reduction ratio (PDRR) increases in the following order 4 mm screwy > 4 mm square > 4mm round discharge electrodes . For the filter properties, Nomex is more effective than PE under the influence of electrostatic force. Applying 30 kV for a screwy discharge electrode, higher overall collection efficiency is maintained in spite of the increment of filtration velocity over four times (8 m/min) in comparison with that of 2 m/min and PDRR are highly shown over 80o1o with various filtration velocities, 5, 8, 11 m/min.

In order to formulate a controlled release system for oral drug delivery, the microcapsules were prepared in w/o emulsion containing cefaclor as a water-soluble model drug by th e method of interfacial polycondensation. Gelatin wis selected as a suitable polymer for interfacial polycondensation. Gelatin solution containing drug was emulsified in an organic phase under mechanical stirring. After emulsification, terephthaloyl chloride was added as cross linking agent, followed by mechanical stirring, washing and drying. Physical characteristics of microcapsules were investigated by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and particle size analysis. Mean particle sizes of gelatin microcapsules were, in the range, of about 20~50 ${\mu}$m. The microcapsules were in good apperance with spherical shapes before washing, but were destroyed partially after washing and drying, even though some microcapsules were still maintained in their shapes. Contents of cefaclor in the microcapsules were calculated by UV spectrophotometry after 3 days extraction with pH 4 carbonate buffer solution. The effects of cross linking time. pH. concentration of cross-linking agent, and temperature on drug release kinetics have been discussed extensively.

Cryogenic crushing techniques have been employed for recycling waste rubber articles and for extracting residual organic additives present in rubber samples. Rubber particulate derived from tire tread abrasion is one of the key components of road dust. Therefore, in this work, we prepared rubber particulates using a cryogenic crusher and characterized their shapes as well as size distributions according to the type of rubber. The rubber particulates exhibited uneven surfaces with the presence of some small pieces. The order of the particle size distribution was observed to be: NR > BR > SBR. Subsequently, carbon black was added; this led to a decrease in the particle size and the shape becoming rougher. The crushed particulates of the carbon black-filled samples comprised agglomerated shapes of small pieces, which were similar in shape to that of wear debris in tire tread. It was discovered that crosslink density was one of the principal factors that led to the formation of small crushed particulates. The small particulates obtained by cryogenic crushing can be utilized as model rubber particulates for researching micro dust.

We study the feasibility of synthesizing Si particles using PLA method. In the previous studies, it was possible to control the size of Si nanoparticles by the He gas pressure. In this study, we fabricated sub-micron size Si particles with various shapes such as conical, hexagonal, and ring by controlling not only the ambient gas pressure but also the laser energy density. Furthermore, we found that the conical Si particles were uniform-sized and had step shape when observed from FE-SEM and AFM. The conical Si particle has the same crystal structure as the bulk single crystalline Si by the analysis of the Raman scattering. It is shown that the relationship between the laser energy density and the He gas pressure inside the chamber affects the shape of the Si particle.

The multiply reinforced mullite-zirconia composites were prepared with addition of Al2O3 particles, platelets, and fibers. The sinter-HIP specimens (presintered at 1$700^{\circ}C$ and hipped at 1$600^{\circ}C$) showed that the fracture toughness of Al2O3 fiber reinforcement (4.4 MPa.{{{{ SQRT {m} }}) was higher than those of platelet (4.0 MPa.{{{{ SQRT {m} }}) and of particle (3.9MPa.{{{{ SQRT {m} }}) reinforcement, whereas the fracture strength of Al2O3 particle reinforcement (304 MPa) was higher than those of platelet (293MPa) and of fiber (248MPa) reinforcement.

As a super high speed small-sized centrifugal separator which is operated by the center inputting method has solved two difficulty problems, it can be made use of developing the new composition through the making of Nano particle (50~100nm) by high speed revolution and alleviation of unbalanced shapes inside the disk continuously throwing slurry in the central part. Uses the air spindle and the centrifugal machine production will be able to manufacture the Roh class fine particle under boil.

Acne vulgaris is a common inflammatory skin disease of the pilose-baceous unit. It appears as lesions consisting of comedones, papules, pustules, and nodules of varying shapes and severity. In general, the first-line treatment for acne vulgaris includes topical and oral medication. Recently, various physical modalities have also been investigated. The use of laser therapy is steadily increasing because of its fewer side effects, short procedure time, and rapid results. In particular, laser therapy assisted with carbon suspension application is effective for acne vulgaris but may sometimes result in discomfort due to odor and dust formation during the procedure. Herein, we report that acne vulgaris and enlarged facial pores can be safely and effectively treated with laser therapy assisted with diamond particle suspension and gold microparticle application, which can address the discomfort caused by the carbon suspension application.
