In the pesticides sprays, spray and atomization technologies to increase the deposition and reduce the drift are briefly reviewed. Further research is needed to deduce a measure of drift risk in sprays with different structures, velocity profiles. For flat fan nozzles, the data of breakup length and thickness of liquid sheet are essential to understand the atomization processes and develop the transport model to target. In the air-assisted spray technology to reduce drift, further works on the effect of application height on drift and air assistance on droplet size should be followed. In addition, methods for quantifying included air in the air inclusion techniques are required. A few researches on the droplet size of fallout can be found in the literature. A combined technology with electrostatic method into one of method for the reduction of drift may be an effective strategy for increasing deposition and reducing drift.

A brief review of current status in the field of agricultural spray and future research challenges are presented. Researches on the pesticides sprays, pollen sprays, postharvest sprays, and biological control agent sprays among the various applications of agricultural spray were selected and reviewed. In the agrochemical sprays, the techniques to increase the deposition such as electrospray and reduce the drift such as introductions of drift retardants and of mechanical means are reviewed. The introduction of mechanical means includes low drift, air-assisted, air inclusion, shield or shroud assisted and pulse flow nozzles. For flat fan nozzles, the data of breakup length and thickness of liquid sheet are essential to understand the atomization processes and develop the transport model to target In the air-assisted spray technology to reduce drift, further works on the effect of application height on drift and air assistance on droplet size should be followed. In addition, methods for quantifying the included air in the air inclusion techniques are required. The atomization characteristics of biopesticides spray are not being elucidated and the formulations of biopesticides should be taken into account the spray characteristics of existing nozzle and sprayer. A few researches on the droplet size of fallout can be found in the literature. A combined technology with electrostatic method into one of method for the reduction of drift may be an effective strategy for increasing deposition and reducing drift. Only an integrated approach involving all stakeholders such as engineers, chemists, and biologists, etc. can result in improved application of agricultural spray.

초임계 용액 급속팽창법(rapid expansion of supercritical solution, RESS)으로 몰시도민(molsidomine, MOL) 약물이 로딩 된 퍼아세틸-β-사이클로덱스트린(PAc-β-CD) 나노 입자를 제조하였다. 입자는 초임계 용액을 공기 중으로 급속하게 팽창시켜 제조하였다. MOL과 PAc-β-CD (0.5, 1 wt%)의 농도, 추출 온도(45 ~ 60 ℃), 모세관 노즐의 길이(5 ~ 20 mm) 및 내경(Inner diameter, ID) (50 ~ 150 μm), 그리고 분사 거리의 변화에 따라 형성된 입자의 크기와 모폴로지를 조사하였다. MOL과 PAc-β-CD의 상호작용을 ¹H-NMR 분광법으로 확인하였고, 입자 크기는 주사 전자 현미경으로 측정하였다. 온도를 45 ℃에서 60 ℃로 올리거나 노즐 내경을 150 μm에서 50 μm로 줄이면 입자 평균 크기가 증가하였으며, 반면에 일정한 압력(34.5 MPa)과 온도(45 ℃)에서 분사 거리를 늘리면 입자 평균 크기가 감소하는 효과를 나타내었다. 0.5 wt%의 PAc-β-CD 농도로서 초임계 공정을 진행한 결과, 모세관의 길이가 짧고(5 mm) 내경이 작은(50 μm) 조건에서 크기가 가장 작은(165 nm) 입자가 얻어졌다. 제조한 나노 입자는 오일 내에서 분산성과 용해도가 증가하였으며, 포접체 입자에서 MOL이 방출되는 시간이 지연되는 것을 확인하였다.
