The purpose of this study is to optimize the powder formulation and manufacturing conditions for the solidification of an extract of the herb Bangpungtongseong-san (BPTS). To develop BPTS-loaded particles for the tablet dosage form, various BPTS-loaded particles composed of BPTS, dextrin, microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), silicon dioxide, ethanol, and water are prepared using spray-drying and high shear granulation (high-speed mixing). Their physical properties are evaluated using scanning electron microscopy and measurements of the angle of repose, Hausner ratio, Carr's index, hardness, and disintegration time. The optimal BPTS-loaded particles exhibit improved flowability and compressibility. In particular, the BPTS-loaded particles containing silicon dioxide show significantly improved flowability and compressibility (the angle of repose, Hausner ratio, and Carr's index are 35.27 ± 0.58°, 1.18 ± 0.06, and 15.67 ± 1.68%, respectively), hardness (18.97 ± 1.00 KP), and disintegration time (17.60 ± 1.50 min) compared to those without silicon dioxide. Therefore, this study suggests that particles prepared by high-speed mixing can be used to greatly improve the flowability and compressibility of BPTS using MCC and silicon dioxide.

제올라이트는 높은 양이온교환능력(CEC)으로 인해 토양개량제의 사용이 고려되어 왔으나, 이에 관한 연구들의 대부분이 제올라이트를 합성하거나 천연제올라이트의 CEC를 증가시키는데 국한되어왔다. 실제로 제올라이트를 토양개량제로 사용하기 위해서는 유실되는 것을 방지하기 위한 과립화 (granulation or pelletizing)가 요구된다. 본 연구는 제올라이트를 토양개량제로 활용하기 위해 이를 포함하는 소성점토의 과립 (calcined clay granule)을 제조하고, 제올라이트의 특성을 최대로 활용할 수 있는 과립의 제조조건을 찾으려 하였다. 천연제올라이트, 고령토, 규석을 재료로 하여, pan granulator와 high shear mixer granulator의 두가지 과립기를 사용하여 과립을 제조하였다. 재료의 혼합비와 과립기의 회전속도 등을 조절하여 과립을 제조하였으며, 이를 $400\sim700^{\circ}C$범위에서 $100^{\circ}C$단위로 소성한 후 파쇄강도 (crushing strength), 기공분포 (pore distribution), CEC를 측정하였다. 토양개량제로 사용할 과립은 취급시에 요구되는 기본적인 강도뿐만 아니라 토양과 혼합된 후 답압(踏壓)에 견디기 위한 강도 또한 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 과립의 답압에 관한 저항성 평가방법을 마련하고, 마른 상태와 젖은 상태에서 과립의 저항성을 측정하였다. 과립기의 회전속도와 가열온도에 비례하여 답압에 대한 저항성은 증가하나 CEC는 감소하였다. Pan granulator는 $700^{\circ}C$이하의 가열에서 적절한 강도를 갖는 과립을 제조할 수 없었으나, high shear mixer granulator는 $500^{\circ}C$이상의 가열에 의해 답압에 저항성을 갖는 과립을 제조할 수 있었다.

State of problem : The use of zirconium oxide all-ceramic material provides several advantages, including a high flexural strength(>1000MPa) and desirable optical properties, such as shading adaptation to the basic shades and a reduction in the layer thickness. Along with the strength of the materials, the cementation technique is also important to the clinical success of a restoration. Nevertheless, little information is available on the effect of different surface treatments on the bonding of zirconium high-crystalline ceramics and resin luting agents. Purpose : The aim of this study was to test the effects of surface treatments of zirconium on shear bond strengths between bovine teeth and a zirconia ceramic and evaluate differences among cements Material and methods : 54 sound bovine teeth extracted within a 1 months, were used. They were frozen in distilled water. These were rinsed by tap water to confirm that no granulation tissues have left. These were kept refrigerated at $4^{\circ}C$ until tested. Each tooth was placed horizontally at a plastic cylinder (diameter 20mm), and embedded in epoxy resin. Teeth were sectioned with diamond burs to expose dentin and grinded with #600 silicon carbide paper. To make sure there was no enamel left, each was observed under an optical microscope. 54 prefabricated zirconium oxide ceramic copings(Lava, 3M ESPE, USA) were assigned into 3 groups ; control, airborne-abraded with $110{\mu}m$ $Al_2O_3$ and scratched with diamond burs at 4 directions. They were cemented with a seating force of 10 ㎏ per tooth, using resin luting cement(Panavia $F^{(R)}$), resin cement(Superbond $C&B^{(R)}$), and resin modified GI cement(Rely X $Luting^{(R)}$). Those were thermocycled at $5^{\circ}C$ and $55^{\circ}C$ for 5000 cycles with a 30 second dwell time, and then shear bond strength was determined in a universal test machine(Model 4200, Instron Co., Canton, USA). The crosshead speed was 1 mm/min. The result was analyzed with one-way analysis of variance(ANOVA) and the Tukey test at a significance level of P<0.05. Results : Superbond $C&B^{(R)}$ at scratching with diamond burs showed the highest shear bond strength than others (p<.05). For Panavia $F^{(R)}$, groups of scratching and sandblasting showed significantly higher shear bond strength than control group(p<.05). For Rely X $Luting^{(R)}$, only between scratching & control group, significantly different shear bond strength was observed(p<.05). Conclusion : Within the limitation of this study, Superbond $C&B^{(R)}$ showed clinically acceptable shear bond between bovine teeth & zirconia ceramics regardless of surface treatments. For the surface treatment, scratching increased shear bond strength. Increase of shear bond strength by sandblasting with $110{\mu}m$ $Al_2O_3$ was not statistically different.
