본 연구에서는 장파장에서 감응하는 광촉매를 개발하기 위하여 상용화된 $TiO_2$에 Ag를 도핑하여 제조하였으며 광촉매 효율을 향상시키기 위하여 귀금속의 분산을 증대시키는 마이크로에멀젼 방법을 이용하였다. 제조된 $Ag/TiO_2$의 물리적 특성은 SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy), FE-TEM(Field Emission Transmission Electron Microscopy), DRS(Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy)를 통해 분석하였다. RO 16(Reactive Orange 16)에 대한 광촉매의 제거 효율은 25ppm의 RO 16을 대상으로 UV-A 영역(365nm)에서 수행하였다. Ag의 도핑방법에 의한 광촉매 효율을 비교하기 위해 볼밀링 및 딥코팅 방법으로 제조하여 광촉매 효율을 분석하였으며 광촉매 효율에 대한 Ag 및 계면활성제 함량에 대한 최적화를 진행하였다. 도핑방법에 따른 RO 16 제거효율 분석 결과, 마이크로에멀젼 방법으로 제조한 $Ag/TiO_2$의 RO 16 제거효율이 가장 높았으며 Ag 함량 2wt%, 계면활성제 0.5g에서 가장 높은 제거효율을 보였다.

The silica coated $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticles have been synthesized using a micro-emulsion method. The $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticles with the sizes 6 nm in diameter were synthesized by thermal decomposition method. Hydrophobic $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticles were coated silica using surfactant and tetraethyl orthosilicated (TEOS) as a $SiO_2$ precursor. Shell thickness of silica coated $Fe_3O_4$ can be controlled (11~20 nm) through our synthetic conditions. The $Fe_3O_4$ and silica coated $Fe_3O_4$ nano powders were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD) and vortex magnetic separation (VMS).

화장품 산업은 정밀화학분야로 기술집약적인 산업이며 세계적으로 지속적인 성장률을 보이고 있다. 이러한 화장품 산업에서 시장 점유율을 높이기 위해 과거에는 기능적 측면이 주로 강조가 되어 왔으나, 최근에는 국내외적으로 화장품의 우수한 성능과 더불어 시각적 효과로 소비자의 관심을 유도하려는 노력이 고조되고 있다. 이에 따라 화장품 제조업체에서는 화장품 에멀젼을 캡슐화하고 에멀젼 캡슐의 형태, 색상 및 질감 등을 다양하게 변형시킬 수 있는 기술을 다방면으로 시도하고 있는 상황이다. 에멀젼을 캡슐화하는 기본 방식은 에멀젼 저장소에 에멀젼을 채워 넣고 노즐을 통해 에멀젼을 낙하시키는 방법으로 업체에서 가장 쉽게 이용할 수 있다. 그러나, 에멀젼을 캡슐레이션하는 기존 방식은 캡슐의 사이즈를 줄이는 데 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 기존 방식의 한계를 이론 및 수치해석방법으로 고찰하였으며, 이러한 방식의 문제를 해결하기 위한 대안책으로 미세유체역학(Microfluidics)을 적용하기 위하여 마이크로 채널 내에서 발생하는 에멀젼 캡슐레이션 현상을 연구하였다.

We report the preparation of nanocrystalline cobalt ferrite, $CoFe_2O_4$, particles using recycled $Co_3O_4$ and their surface coating with silica using micro emulsion method. Firstly, the $Co_3O_4$ powders were separated from waste cemented carbide with acid-base chemical treatment. The cobalt ferrite nanoparticles with the size 10 nm are prepared by thermal decomposition method using recycled $Co_3O_4$. $SiO_2$ was coated onto the $CoFe_2O_4$ particles by the micro-emulsion method. The $SiO_2$-coated $CoFe_2O_4$ particles were studied their physical properties and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), high resolution-transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis and CIE Lab value.

To demonstrate the effect of formulation conditions and evaluations of structural integrity from ovalbumin containing poly lactide glycolide copolymer (PLGA) microspheres for Vaccine delivery, OVA microspheres were prepared by a W/O/W multiple emulsion solvent extraction technique. Dichloromethan (DCM) and Ethyl acetate (EA) were applied as an organic phase and poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) as a secondary emulsion stabilizer. Microspheres were characterized for particle size, morphology (optical microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM)). Protein denaturation was evaluated by size exclusion chromatography (SEC), SDS-PAGE and isoelectric focusing (IEF). Residual organic solvent was estimated by gas chromatography (GC) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Optical photomicrograph and SEM revealed that micro spheres were typically spherical but various morphologies were observed. Mean particle size $(d_{vs})$ of microspheres were in the range of $3{\sim}50{\mu}m$. Also, The protein stability was not affected by the fonnulation process and residual organic solvent was beyond the detection below 0.1ppm. These results demonstrated that micro spheres might be a good candidate for the parenteral vaccine delivery system.

The micro emulsion method has been successfully used for preparing perovskite LaCoO₃ with uniform, fine-shaped nanoparticles showing high activity as electro catalysts in oxygen reduction reactions (ORRs). They are, therefore, promising candidates for the air-cathode in metal-air rechargeable batteries. Since the activity of a catalyst is highly dependent on its specific surface area, nanoparticles of the perovskite catalyst are desirable for catalyzing both oxygen reduction and evolution reactions. Herein, LaCoO₃ powder was also prepared by sol-gel method for comparison, with a broad particle distribution and high agglomeration. The electro catalytic properties of LaCoO₃ and LaCoO₃-carbon Super P mixture layers toward the ORR were studied comparatively using the rotating disk electrode technique in 0.1 M KOH electrolyte to elucidate the effect of carbon Super P. Koutecky-Levich theory was applied to acquire the overall electron transfer number (n) during the ORR, calculated to be ~3.74 for the LaCoO₃-Super P mixture, quite close to the theoretical value (4.0), and ~2.7 for carbon-free LaCoO₃. A synergistic effect toward the ORR is observed when carbon is present in the LaCoO₃ layer. Carbon is assumed to be more than an additive, enhancing the electronic conductivity of the oxide catalyst. It is suggested that ORRs, catalyzed by the LaCoO₃-Super P mixture, are dominated by a 2+2-electron transfer pathway to form the final, hydroxyl ion product.

Magnetic fluorescent silica nanotubes were fabricated using reverse micro-emulsions coupled with conventional sol-gel methods. Anodic aluminum oxide templates were used to separate spatially the magnetic and the fluorescent moieties on individual nanotubes and so prevent quenching of the fluorescence. C18 and fluorescent layers were deposited sequentially on silica. Magnetism was then obtained by the introduction of pre-made magnetic nanoparticles inside the nanotubes. The photo- and chemical stabilities of nanotubes were demonstrated through dye release and photobleaching tests. The produced nanotubes did not show fluorescence quenching upon the addition of the nanoparticles, an advantage over conventional spherical fluorescent magnetic nanoparticles. High photostability of nanotubes, magnetism and biocompatiblily make them potentially useful in bioanalysis.

In this study, a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microspheres was fabricated using emulsion solvent evaporation technique. During the procedure fabrication, some parameters process have effected on the formation of micro-carriers. The structure and morphology of micro-carriers were evaluated by SEM observation. Beside, heparin incorporated into microspheres was determined using toluidine blue method. Specifically, the effects of some parameters process such as ultrasonic levels, PLGA concentrations and freeze-dry times on the size, structure, porous formation and heparin entrapment of micro-carriers were studied carefully. We found that, the morphology and structure of carriers were influenced by the all above parameters. The diameter of the carriers varied from 20 to 400 ${\mu}M$ depending on experimental conditions. At suitable freeze-dry time, the pores were automatically formation on surface of microspheres with a significantly in the numbers of pore. After heparin incorporated porous PLGA microspheres, it was suggested that the highly heparin incorporated into porous PLGA microspheres could enhance of angiogenesis for tissue regeneration easily.

축열재 이용 기술은 실내 냉난방을 위하여 사용된 에너지를 장시간 일정온도로 유지할 수 있도록 하여 에너지 사용 효율을 높이는 장점이 있다. 이 중 상변화 물질을 이용한 잠열 축열재는 물질의 잠열성질을 이용하는 것으로서 심물질로서 일정온도에서 녹는점을 갖는 물질을 캡슐화 하여 이를 건축자재에 적용하여 실내 및 외기의 온도에 따라서 심물질이 녹거나 어는 과정에서 축열과 방열로 인한 에너지 절감 및 차단 효과를 갖는다. 상변화 물질을 이용해 축열재를 만드는 방법은 마이크로 캡슐화의 방법이 있다. 이 방법은 크게 분류하면 화학적 방법, 물리 화학적 방법 및 물리적 기계적 방법의 3가지로 나눌 수 있다. 물리 화학적 방법으로 습식공정에 의한 마이크로 캡슐화 공정을 이용했으며 이 공정은 심물질을 용매에서 에멀젼화한 다음 고분자모노머를 심물질인 에멀젼의 벽면에 코팅하여 경화 시키는 공정이다. 이 경우에 심물질의 에멀젼이나 벽재 모노머의 코팅 성능을 좋게 하기 위하여 계면활성제가 사용된다. 또한 계면활성제의 특성에 따라서 마이크로 캡슐화의 성능이 좌우되고 특히 벽재물질의 코팅 두께 및 코팅의 균일성에 크게 좌우된다. 본 연구에서는 상변화를 이용한 축열재로서 심물질인 1-도데카놀을 멜라민수지로 계면중합법에 의하여 마이크로 캡슐화 하는데 있어서 계면활성제인 SSMA(sulfonated styrene-maleic anhydride)의 화학적 특성에 따른 마이크로 캡슐의 성능과 이에 따른 축열 성능을 비교하였다.
