The stabilities of O/W emulsions (lipophilic core material:lipophobic wall material=3:2, w/w) containing various kinds of emulsifiers were compared to determine the optimal conditions of the HLB (hydrophilic lipophilic balance) value, the concentration and composition of emulsifier, the ratio of core material to the wall material, and the concentration and composition of polymers in the wall material. The effect of different chemical types of emulsifiers and the influence of single vs. binary emulsifier systems were compared with 13 kinds of emulsifier HLB values of $0.6{\sim}16.7$ at the concentration of 0.50%(w/w). The emulsion system was stable (more than 99.0 of ESI value) when the HLB value of the emulsifier was more than 11.0 or less than 2.8 of emulsifier HLB value. But it was unstable (less than 40.0 of ESI value) at the HLB value of the emulsifier between 3.4 and 8.6. Especially, we could find out the emulsion containing the emulsifier of polyglycerol polyricinoleate (PGPR, HLB 0.6) became stable creamy state. And, the ESI value of binary emulsifier system containing 0.25%(w/w) of PGPR and 0.25%(w/w) of polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate (PSML, HLB 16.7) was higher than that of any single emulsifier system at the concentration of 0.50%(w/w). The highest emulsion stability was obtained in the liquefied wall material composed of 0.25%(w/v) of waxy corn starch and 0.50%(w/v) of agar.

Emulsifiers are widely accepted ingredients in food & beverage applications owing to their functional properties. The multi-functionality of emulsifiers increases its adoption in end-use applications. Also, the growing demand of natural sources of ingredients and increase in demand for convenience foods and premium products have expanded the application areas of food emulsifiers in the food & beverage industries. Emulsifiers are increasingly used by food processors to make their food products more cost-efficient and robust, enabling them to endure the rigors of harsh processing.

Emulsion graft copolymerization of MMA onto cotton fiber using Ce(IV) salt as an initiator was carried out. Graft yield and graft efficiency were observed according to the kinds and concentrations of emulsifier and polymerization conditions. The physical properties of MMA grafted cotton fabric were investigated. The results of this study were as follows: 1. The heighest graft yield of emulsion graft polymerization occurred at the concentration below cmc of emulsifier, which was different from emulsion polymerization. Nonionic sur- factant as an emulsifier was more effective than anionic one. 2. The highest graft yield was obtained at the initiator concentration $1{\times}10^{-2}mol/l$. The viscometric molecular weight of PMMA was in the order of 106. 3. As reaction time increased, the graft yield increased but the graft efficiency decreased. 4. Elevation of reaction temperature resulted in increase of graft yield. The apparent activation energy of MMA graft polymerization was 4.72 Kcal/mol. 5. Physical properties of MMA grafted cotton fabric varied with increase of grafting. Thickness and stiffness showed a noticeable increase, whereas tensile strength and elongation was slightly increased. Crease recovery increased as the graft yield increase up to $50\%$ and decreased thereafter.

As a method to develop an enhanced heat transfer fluid, the fine particles of a phase-change material were mixed with a conventional heat transfer fluid. Paraffin, which can be obtained easily in domestic market, was used for the phase-change material and water was used as a carrier fluid. Fine liquid particles of paraffin were formed in water as an emulsion by using an emulsifier, and they were cooled rapidly to become solid particle, resulting in paraffin slurry. The average diameter of produced solid particles was inversely proportional to the amount of the added emulsifier, which was theoretically proved. The produced paraffin slurry was tested thermally in heat transfer test section having a constant-heat-flux boundary condition. The test section was made of a circular stainless-steel pipe, which was directly heated by the power supply having a maximum of 50 Volts-500 Amperes. DSC(Differential scanning calorimeter) tests showed that two kinds of phase change were involved in the melting of paraffin, and it was explained in two different ways. A five- region-melting model was developed by extending the conventional three-region-melting model, and was used to obtain the local bulk mean temperatures of paraffin slurry in the heating test section. The local heat transfer coefficient showed a maximum where the bulk mean temperature of the paraffin slurry reached at the melting temperature of paraffin.

Nowadays, microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas and many studies are being performed. For biomedical applications, many kinds of microspheres were synthesized by emulsion polymerization, emulsifier-free emu]sion polymerization, and emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization with ionic surface-active comonomers. Further synthesis techniques about microencapsulation and magnetic microspheres are introduced. Among the practical applications of microspheres, some interesting subjects are introduced. These include solid-phase immunoassays, labeling and identification of lymphocyte populations, extracorporeal and hemoperfusion systems, drug delivery systems, and immunomagnetic cell separation. In addition, basic theories, problems and research trends are also introduced.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effective additives and amount of addition in order to improve the quality of chou made with rice flour. The four emulsifiers and four thickeners were used as the additives in this test. The chou was formed with rice flour without the additives. There were not significantly differences in the sensory evaluation between choux of rice flour of non-additives and the additives, but the emulsifiers treatment increased the expansion capacity of paste. Thickeners did not improve the quality of choux. The hardness of pastes were increased and the cavities in choux were not formed in addition of high amount of thickeners. The mixture of two kinds of emulsifiers, the mixture of emulsifiers and a thickener did not improve of choux quality compared to the addition of emulsifier. The best quality of chou was obtained from 0.6% of lecithin.

The purpose of this research was to synthesize fluorine modified waterborne polyurethane dispersion (F-WPU) by soap-free (internal emulsifier) emulsion polymerization techniques, to prepare coating solution based on fluorine modified waterborne polyurethane dispersion (F-WPU) and to compare the chemical and thermo-mechanical properties on the electrogalvanized steel sheet. Environmentally friendly F-WPU was prepared with a fluorinated polyol containing 60 wt% of fluorine. There are various ways of combining a wide variety of fluorinated polyols and diisocyanate to exhibit novel properties of waterborne polyurethane dispersion. Components of coating solution were largely divided into 4 kinds i.e., F-WPU, acrylic emulsion, silane coupling agent, and colloidal silicate. F-WPU coating solution on the electro-galvanized steel sheet showed excellent properties of corrosion resistance, alkali resistance and heat resistance, as compared to other coating solutions using a general waterborne resin. The F-WPU coating solution's reliable effects are possibly due to the fluorine atoms incorporated even in a small amount of F-WPU.

Most researches regarding emulsified fuel were in the areas of emulsifier, emulsified fuel manufacturing and emulsified fuel droplet combustion, but there were little papers published regarding emulsified fuel combustion and boiler efficiency in an industrial boiler. The main purpose of this study is to clarify whether improvements in the boiler efficiency and the reduction of pollutants such as CO, NOx, SOx and smoke exist or not when emulsified fuels are combusted in the commercial boiler. Main experimental parameters were water content in heavy oil , excess $O_2$, and boiler load. The fuels used in this experiment were 0.5 B-C, and 5 kinds of 0.5 B-C/water emulsified fuels. The combustion characteristics of heavy oil and its emulsions with water were investigated in an industrial boiler. The combustion stability was monitored and exhaust gases such as CO, NOx, SOx and smoke were measured with excess $O_2$ and combustion load. In case of emulsified fuel combustion, flame stability was poor and boiler efficiency was lowered by 1.6~5.7%, but emission levels of CO and smoke were improved.

To investigate the effects of preparation conditions of encapsulating ester compounds on retention rate of core material in microcapsules prepared with sea tangle alginate, the amounts of ester compounds migrated gelling solution (1 M $CaCl_2$) and washing water from microcapsules that were prepared by adding kinds of ester compound, by controlling ratios of emulsifier to ester compounds and by differing ratios of alginates (wall material) to ester compounds (core material) were measured. Also the amount of ester compounds retained in microcapsules was measured. The higher weight molecular of ester compounds were, the lower amounts of ester compounds migrated gelling solution and washing water from microcapsules were, But its amounts retained in microcapsules were increased, The changes of ethyl caprylate amount migrated gelling solution and washing water from microcapsules prepared by increasing ratios of emulsifier to ethyl caprylate were little, but its half-lives in microcapsules during storage at 25$^{\circ}C$ were steeply increased. Increasing ratios of wall material to core material, ethyl caprylate amount migrated gelling solution and washing water from microcapsules showed 1.8$\~$$2.0\%$ and 2.9$\~$$3.5\%$ respectively but half-lives of ethyl caprylate retained in alginate microcapsules were increased.

Using agar and waxy com starch as the wall material, we could encapsulate the purified fish oil. Firstly, we have developed a simple and sensitive method for the quantitative analysis of the microencapsulation yield using 5% cupric acetate pyridine solution. Then, the optimum conditions such as the ratio of [core material] to [wall material]$(X_1)$, the temperature of dispersion fluid$(X_2)$, and the emulsifier concentration$(X_3)$ for the microencapsulation process were determined by using response surface methodology(RSM). The regression model equation for the yield of microencapsulation(Y, %) of purified fish oil upon three kinds of independent variables could be predicted as follows; Y = 100.138621-0.735000$(X_1)$+0.840000$(X_1)(X_2)$+0.817500$(X_1)(X_3)$-0.852500$(X_2)(X_3)$. And the optimum conditions for the microencapsulation of the purified fish oil were the ratio of [core material] to [wall material] of 4.9 : 5.1(w/w), the emulsifier concentration of 0.48%, and dispersion fluid temperature of $19.4^{\circ}C$. The microcapsules containing the purified fish oil showed the highest storage stability at pH 7.0 and $20{\sim}25^{\circ}C$.
