In this study, the sphericity of calcium alginate gel beads was optimized using response surface methodology. The optimum conditions for bead sphericity were a concentration of 2.24% sodium alginate, a flow rate of 0.059 mL/sec for the sodium alginate solution, and a 459 rpm rotation for the calcium chloride solution. The predicted and experimental bead sphericities under the optimum conditions were 94.5 and 96.7%, respectively, showing close agreement. We also investigated the processing condition effects for the physical properties of the optimized calcium alginate gel beads. Immersion in hot water slightly decreased bead size and rupture strength. NaCl treatment increased bead size and decreased rupture strength. While the pH of the calcium chloride solution had little effect on bead sphericity, the bead sizes and gel strengths decreased with longer times in each pH solution. The beads coated with pectin and glucomannan showed no significant changes in sphericity, but their sizes decreased with time. The coated beads showed higher rupture strengths than the uncoated beads.

Sol-gel법을 이용하여 Co$_{0.9}$Zn$_{0.1}$Fe$_2$O$_4$ 박막을 제조하였다. 성장한 박막의 구조 및 자기적 성질에 관하여 x선 회절분석기 (XRD), atomic force microscopy(AFM) 및 Auger electron spectroscopy(AES), 진동시료자화측정기 (VSM)을 이용하였다. Co-Zn 페라이트 박막의 경우, 400 $^{\circ}C$ 이상의 열처리 온도에서 단일상의 spinel 구조만을 가지고 있으며, 아무런 방향성이 없이 성장함을 나타내고 있다. 열처리 온도가 600 $^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 성장된 박막 표면의 거칠기는 3 nm 이하였으며, 형성된 입자의 크기는 약 40nm이하임을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 40$0^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 경우 기판에서 Si이 Co-Zn 페라이트 박막내로 확산이 거의 나타나지 않았으나, 870 $^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 경우 계면에서 기판과 박막의 상호 확산을 확인할 수 있었다. 제작한 박막은 외부 자기장의 방향과는 무관한 등방성의 자기적 특성을 보이며, 최대 보자력은 600 $^{\circ}C$에선 열처리한 자성박막이 약 1,900 Oe을 가짐을 알 수 있었다.있었다.

본 연구에서는 생선단백질의 젤형성에 영향을 미치는 처리조건(가열온도, 가열시간, 염농도)을 달리하여 형성되는 젤의 압축응력과 초음파의 잔존시간을 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 가열온도가 증가할수록, 가열시간이 증가할수록 또한 염농도가 감소할수록 조직의 압축응력으로 나타내어지는 젤강도는 증가하였으나 그에 상응하는 초음파의 잔존시간은 감소하였으며 젤강도와 잔존시간이 반비례함을 보였다. 각 처리조건을 변수로 하여 중회귀분석을 한 결과 초음파의 잔존시간에 의해 계산 예측된 압축응력과 실측정값과 비교시 유사함을 나타내었다. 이와 같이 볼 때 초음파를 이용한 잔존시간의 측정은 식품조직내의 변화에도 민감한 변화를 나타내었으며 식품공정과정 중에 비파괴적인 방법으로의 사용여부도 기대되어진다.

에탄올처리 찰가자미껍질 젤라틴의 젤라틴농도, pH, 정치온도 및 시간과 같은 겔화조건에 대한 물리적 특성 및 색조의 변화를 측정하였다. 젤라틴의 농도가 증가할수록 겔강도, 녹는점과 같은 물리적 특성은 증가하였고, 일정농도에서의 이러한 값들은 에탄올처리한 젤라틴이 무처리한 젤라틴에 비하여 컸다. 젤라틴 졸의 pH가 에탄올처리한 젤라틴의 경우 6.0일 때, 무처리한 젤라틴의 경우 5.0일 때, 겔강도, 졸화온도 및 겔화온도가 가장 높았고, 이를 벗어난 $pH\;5.0{\sim}7.0$의 범위에서는 서서히 감소하였으며, pH 5.0이하 및 pH 9.0이상에서는 급격히 감소하였다. 젤라틴 졸을 겔화시키기 위하여 정치시키는 온도의 경우 낮을수록, 정치시키는 시간의 경우 길어질수록 겔강도 및 졸화온도는 높았다. 겔화조건을 동일하게 하였을 때 에탄올처리한 젤라틴이 무처리한 젤라틴보다 물리적 특성값이 높게 나타났다.

Cost-effective functional phosphor nanoparticles are prepared by introducing low-cost $SiO_2$ spheres to rare-earth phosphor ($YVO_4:Eu^{3+}$, $YVO_4:Er^{3+}$, and $YVO_4:Nd^{3+}$) shells using a sol-gel synthetic method. These functional nanoparticles are characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and general photoluminescence spectra. The $SiO_2$ sphere occupying the interior of the conventional phosphor is advantageous in significantly reducing the cost of expensive rare-earth phosphor nanoparticles. The sol-gel process facilitates the core-shell structure formation; the rare-earth shell phosphor has strong interactions with chelating agents on the surfaces of $SiO_2$ nanoparticles and thus forms layers of several nanometers in thickness. The photoluminescence wavelength is simply tuned by replacing the active materials of $Eu^{3+}$, $Er^{3+}$, and $Nd^{3+}$. Moreover, the photoluminescent properties of the core-shell nanoparticles can be optimized by manipulating the specific contents of active materials in the phosphors. Our simple approach substitutes low-cost $SiO_2$ for expensive rare-earth-based phosphor materials to realize cost-effective phosphor nanoparticles for various applications.

가공적성이 우수한 알코올처리 각시가자미껍질 젤라틴을 식품산업소재로 이용하기 위한 기초자료를 얻을 목적으로 젤라틴농도, pH, 정치온도 및 시간과 같은 겔화조건에 대한 알코올처리 젤라틴의 물리적 특성 및 색조의 변화를 알코올 무처리 젤라틴과 비교하여 검토하였다. 알코올처리 및 무처리 젤라틴이 모두 농도가 증가할수록 겔강도, 졸화온도 및 겔화온도 및 점도 등과 같은 물리적 특성은 증가하였다. 젤라틴 졸의 pH가 에탄올처리한 젤라틴의 경우 6.0일 때, 무처리한 젤라틴의 경우 5.0일 때 겔강도, 졸화온도 및 겔화온도가 가장 높았으나, $pH\;5.0{\sim}8.0$의 범위에서는 거의 차이가 없었고, pH 5.0 이하 및 pH 9.0 이상에서는 급격히 감소하였다. 젤라틴 졸을 겔화시키기 위하여 정치시키는 경우 온도는 낮을수록, 시간은 길수록 겔강도 및 졸화온도는 높았다. 겔화조건을 동일하게 하였을 때 에탄올처리한 젤라틴이 무처리한 젤라틴보다 물리적 특성이 우수하였다.

Metal-Ferroelectric-Metal(MFM) capacitors were prepared using $Bi_{3.3}$ $La_{0.7}$ $Ti_3$$O_{12}$ (BLT) ferroelectric thin films which were spin coated on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2$/Si substrates by the Sol-Gel method. BLT thin films annealed at above $650^{\circ}C$ showed polycrystalline structures with typical c-axis preferred orientation. The grain size and surface roughness were increased as the annealing temperature increased from $650^{\circ}C$ to $700^{\circ}C$. In addition, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) values were decreased with increasing annealing temperatures, indicating the improvement of crystallinity. The remanent polarization (2Pr= $Pr^{+}$ $+Pr^{-) }$ and leakage current of the BLT film annealed at $650^{\circ}C$ were about 29.3 $\mu$C/cm$^2$ and $2.3$\times$10^{-8}$$ A/cm^2$ at 3V. There were no distinct changes in the retention charges after $10^{10}$ polarization switching cycles, showing good fatigue property of the annealed BLT films.

Generally $PbTiO_3$ is manufactured in a form of thin films which is useful for the application of infrared sensors and non-volatile memory devices. Moreover $PbTiO_3$ has a characteristic of adsorption for organic acid as well as electronic property. Organic acid adsorption properties of $PbTiO_3$ powder prepared by sol-gel method was compared with the powder purchased from Aldrich Co. Crystallization and particle size of $PbTiO_3$ are influenced by process variables, such as dilution of sol solution, catalysis, calcination temperature, calcination time, etc. As the size of $PbTiO_3$ power decreased until several nanometers, adsorption of acetic acid and formic acid was increased 1.5-fold and 1.2-fold respectively.

In order to enhance the thermal stability of binder materials of bonded type solid lubricants, several combinations of metal-alkoxide based sol-gel materials such as methyltrimethoxysilane(MTMOS), $titaniumisopropoxide(Ti(Opr^{j})_{4})$, $zirconiumisopropoxide(Zr(Opr^{j})_{4})$ and $aluminumbutoxide(Al(Obu^{t})_{4})$ were chemically modified by epoxy-, acrylic- and fluoro-silane compounds, respectively, in this work. Friction and wear characteristics of these hybrid ceramic materials were tested with a micro tribe-tester where a reciprocating steel ball slid on a test material, and the tribological property was also evaluated with respect to both heat-curing temperature and tile time. Test results generally showed that hybrid ceramic materials modified by epoxy-silane compounds had a low friction compared to others. And the higher heat-curing temperature and the longer heat treatment time resulted in the higher friction and the lower wear. IR spectroscopic analyses revealed that it was caused mainly by the increased metal oxide content in hybrid ceramics when the heat-curing temperature was over $320^{\circ}C$.

The objective of this study is to prepare a stable delivery systems containing polyethoxylated retinamide(PERA) - derivatives of retinoic acid, effective anti-wrinkle and anti-acne agent. Cubic liquid crystalline phase gel (CLCPG) and cubosomes containing various concentrations of PERA were prepared to investigate the physicochemical properties. Furthermore, stability and transdermal absorption efficacy of the CLCPG containing PERA were investigated in comparison with oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions which are predominantly used as a topical formulation. CLCPG increase the stability of PERA in comparison with O/W emulsion. For tropical application, CLCPG containing PERA shows higher moisturizing effect than that of O/W emulsion. In skin permeation test, CLCPG shows higher PERA deposit on epidermis. With its specific physicochemical property caused by the glyceryl oleate, CLCPG itself could be used for stabilizer of various actives and applied as an effective delivery system for topical application. Cubosome, nano-sized dispersed CLCPG, is also expected to be applied in a various field of industry like food, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
