Some nano hair systems in the nature are found to show excellent adhesive characteristic, which is called dry adhesive, and synthetic nano hairs to mimic these adhesiveness are believed to have many applications. To develop a practical synthetic dry adhesive system, we mold nano hairs on plastic substrates using thermoplstic materials including COC, PP, PC and PMMA. and estimate the moldability and the adhesive characteristic. As a template for molding nano hairs, AAO membrane is first adopted, which is 60um thick and 13mm in diameter. This membrane has about a billion of through-holes of which diameter is around 200nm. This AAO membrane and the pellet of materials are stacked in the mold and pressed to mold after heating up to be melted. The AAO membrane is removed using KOH to obtain the molded nano hairs. As a result, the diameter of the molded hairs is around 200nm and the length is $2um{\sim}60um$ depending on the molding conditions and materials. The molded nano hair substrates is estimated to show much better adhesive characteristic than a substrate without nano hairs.

High aspect ratio of nano hairs on a plastic substrate is molded using thermoplstic materials including COC, PP, PC and PMMA. As a template for molding nano hairs, AAO membrane is adopted, which is 60um thick and 13mm in diameter. This membrane has about 109 of through-holes of which diameter is around 200nm. This AAO membrane and the pellet of materials are stacked in the mold and pressed to mold after heating up to be melted. The AAO membrane is removed using KOH to obtain the molded nano hairs. As a result, the diameter of the molded hairs is around 200nm and the length is $2um{\sim}60um$ depending on the molding conditions and materials.

Polypropylene substrate with hair-like nano features(aspect $ratio{\sim}10$) on the surface is fabricated by injection molding process. Pure aluminum plate is anodized to have nano pore array on the surface and used as a stamper for molding nano features, The size and the thickness of the stamper is $30mm{\times}30mm$ and 1mm. The fabricated pore is about 120nm in diameter and 1.5 um deep. For molding of a substrate with nano-hair type of surface features, the stamper is heated up over $150^{\circ}C$ before the filling stage and cooled down below $70^{\circ}C$ after filling to release the molded part. For heating the stamper, stamper itself is used as a heating element by applying electrical power directly to each end of the stamper. The stamper becomes cooled down without circulation of coolant such as water or oil. With this new stamper heating method, nano hairs with aspect ratio of about 10 was successfully injection molded. We also found the heating & cooling process of the stamper is good for releasing of molded nano-hairs.

High-aspect-ratio nano-hair or nano-pillar arrays have great potential in a variety of applications. In this study, we present a simple and cost-effective replication method of high-aspect-ratio polymer nano-hair arrays. Highly ordered nano-porous AAO (anodic aluminum oxide) template was utilized as a reusable nano-mold insert. The AAO nano-mold insert fabricated by the two-step anodization process in this study had close- packed straight nano-pores, which enabled us to replicate densely arranged nano-hairs. The diameter, depth and pore spacing of the nano-pores in the fabricated AAO nano-mold insert were about 200nm, $1{\mu}m$ and 450nm, respectively. For the replication of polymer nano-hair arrays, a UV nano embossing process was applied as a mass production method. The UV nano embossing machine was developed by our group for the purpose of replicating nano-structures by means of non-transparent nano-mold inserts. Densely arranged high-aspect-ratio nano-hair arrays have been successfully manufactured by means of the UV nano embossing process with the AAO nano-mold insert under the optimum processing condition.

자연계에 존재하는 다양한 생명체 중 몇몇은 벽이나 천장을 자유자재로 걸어다니거나 뛰어다닌다. 이러한 생명체 중 대표적으로 Tokay Gecko는 그 발가락 표피에 수십억개의 주걱모양의 나노헤어를 가지고 있으며, 이러한 나노헤어는 부착하고자 하는 표면과의 원자수준의 끌어당기는 힘을 발생시키게 되며 이 힘을 이용해 접착제 없이 부착력을 얻게 되는 것이다. 최근 $7{\sim}8$년 동안 많은 연구자들은 이를 모방한 건식부착물의 제작 연구를 수행하고 있으며, 본 논문에서는 이러한 연구들의 개관을 통해 향후 연구방향에 대해 논의하고자 한다.

Recent publications reported the self-propelled jumping of coalescing dew droplets on superhydrophobic surfaces [1-2]. We further investigated the initial growth, coalescence, and removal by self-propelled ejection of nano and microscopic water droplets on the superhydrophobic surface of lotus leaves under condensing conditions. By using a high-speed digital camera mounted on an optical microscope, we have found: (1) sub-micrometer droplets form and grow on nanoscale waxy hairs; (2) growing droplets coalesce rapidly upon contact, but never jump off the surface unless the diameter of merged droplets exceeds ${\sim}15{\mu}m$; (3) the diameter and direction of jumping droplets are very narrowly distributed, centered at $20-30{\mu}m$ and ${\sim}20$ degrees from the surface normal, respectively. We present a rationale for these observations on the basis of: (a) the hierarchically rough surface structure on nano- and micro-scales; (b) its chemical composition; and (c) the balance among competing forces of cohesion (surface tension), adhesion and gravity.

We present simple methods for fabricating high aspect-ratio polymer nanostructures on a solid substrate by rigiflex lithography with tailored capillarity and adhesive force. In the first method, a thin, thermoplastic polymer film was prepared by spin coating on a substrate and the temperature was raised above the polymer's glass transition temperature ($T_g$) while in conformal contact with a poly(urethane acrylate) (PUA) mold having nano-cavities. Consequently, capillarity forces the polymer film to rise into the void space of the mold, resulting in nanostructures with an aspect ratio of ${\sim}4$. In the second method, very high aspect-ratio (>20) nanohairs were fabricated by elongating the pre-formed nanostructures upon removal of the mold with the aid of tailored capillarity and adhesive force at the mold/polymer interface. Finally, these two methods were further used to fabricate micro/nano hierarchical structures by sequential application of the molding process for mimicking nature's functional surfaces such as a lotus leaf and gecko foot hairs.

염색 및 탈색된 헤어는 일상생활 중의 자외선, 열기구 사용수세 (샴푸)에 의해 재손상되며, 이의 해결을 위해 최근 피부와 두피에 안전한 각종 천연물질의 연구가 활발하다. 이 연구는 녹차씨 오일의 광퇴색 방지와 모발 트리트먼트 효과를 확인하고자 수행되었다. 그러나 녹차의 기능은 이미 많이 알려져 있으나 녹차씨 오일을 이용한 모발 트리트먼트 및 퇴색 방지의 연구는 미비하다. 염색 및 탈색된 헤어에 녹차씨 오일을 이용한 전처리 트리트먼트 효과를 알아보기 위해 인장 강도 및 신장율을 측정하고 모발표면을 SEM으로 분석하였으며 색차계를 이용한 모발 광퇴색을 비교하였다. 실험결과 모발의 인장강도와 신장율의 측정에서 녹차씨 오일 전처리 시료는 버진헤어, 염색헤어, 탈색헤어에서 모두 증가하였고 신장율은 염색헤어와 탈색헤어에서 낮아져 염색헤어와 탈색헤어에서 트리트먼트 효과가 있었다. 모발표면을 촬영한 결과 모든 군에서 전처리된 모발 큐티클의 문리가 더 선명하고 코팅효과가 확인되었다. 모발의 광퇴색 값은 열과 수세의 반복 실험에서 전처리된 각 시료 모두 $L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$값이 감소하였고 자외선 조사 실험에서는 염색과 탈색헤어에서 $L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$값이 각각 감소하였다. 위의 실험결과에 의해 녹차씨 오일은 염색 및 탈색모발의 재손상 방지와 열과 자외선에 의한 색상의 퇴색방지 효과를 확인하였으며 앞으로 미용 실무현장에서 고객의 피부와 두피에 적합한 천연화장품 오일로 사용이 가능하리라 사료된다.

Surface engineering of polymers has a broad array of scientific and technological applications that range from tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, microfluidics and novel lab on chip devices to building mechanical memories, stretchable electronics, and devising tunable surface adhesion for robotics. Recent advancements in the field of nanotechnology have provided robust techniques for controlled surface modification of polymers and creation of structural features on the polymeric surface at submicron scale. We have recently demonstrated techniques for controlled surfaces of soft and relatively hard polymers using ion beam irradiation and plasma treatment, which allows the fabrication of nanoscale surface features such as wrinkles, ripples, holes, and hairs with respect to its polymers. In this talk, we discuss the underlying mechanisms of formation of these structural features. This includes the change in the chemical composition of the surface layer of the polymers due to ion beam irradiation or plasma treatment and the instability and mechanics of the skin-substrate system. Using ion beam or plasma irradiation on polymers, we introduce a simple method for fabrication of one-dimensional, two-dimensional and nested hierarchical structural patterns on polymeric surfaces on various polymers such as polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), poly (methyl methacrylate) PMMA, and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS).
