In this study we investigate a laboratory scale vacuum membrane distillation system to produce pure water from model oil in water emulsion. Experimental determination of liquid entry pressure (LEP) of a commercial Durapore$^{TM}$ GVPH flat sheet membrane using model emulsions in various oil concentrations has been carried out. Two different methods of liquid entry pressure determination - a frequently used, so-called static and a novel dynamic method - have been investigated. In case of static method, LEP value was found to be 2.3 bar. No significant effect of oil content on LEP was detected up to 3200 ppm. In contrast, LEP values determined with dynamic method showed strong dependence on the oil concentration of the feed and decreased from 2.0 bar to a spontaneous wetting at 0.2 bar in the range 0-250 ppm, respectively. Vacuum membrane distillation tests were also performed. The separation performance is evaluated in terms of flux behavior, total organic carbon removal and droplet size distribution of the feed and final retentate. No significant effect of oil content on the flux was found ($5.05{\pm}0.31kgm^{-2}h^{-1}$) up to 250 ppm, where a spontaneous wetting occurred. High separation performance was achieved along with the increasing oil concentration between 93.4-97.0%.

Estimation and collection of the suitable recording materials are important for the fabrication of the holographic optical elements. In this study, silver halide emulsion, photoresist and dichromated gelatin are selected as a recording materials to investigate the properties and processing methods. Some parameters which affect the diffraction efficiencies of the holographic optical elements (HOE) are presented. As an example of the HOE, the results of design and the fabrication method of the off axis 12P hologram lens are also presented.

Poly(L-lactide) microcapsules containing hydrophilic penetrate were prepared by interfacial precipitation method through solvent evaporation from w/o/w emulsion. Effect of four determinative process parameters on the particle size distributions, morphologies, and release properties of microcapsules coated with poly(L-lactide) was investigated. Moreover, susceptible functional cotton fabrics treated with the mentioned microcapsules were prepared and laundry test up to 15 times were done to determine fastness properties. As a result, the prepared poly(L-lactide) microcapsules with a more sharp-distributive, rounder, and more permeable membranes could be prepared by means of protective colloid concentration, solution volume and stirring rate.

This report is announced about thermal lag of painted heat detectors. Thermal lag is forecast result from painting the part of heat receiving. It is delayed responsive time to assume fire fighting, escape. Test is simulated that heat detector is painted by synthetic resin emulsion paint according to the circumstance of installation. Painting method, number, thick etc is determined by research worker based on the popular idea.

In order to set up a proper AKD quantification method for studing AKD hydrolysis, a quantitative analysis method using Uv/vis spectroscopy was evaluated and compared to the conventional GC-MS analysis. Hydrolysis rates of AKD emulsions during storage at 4$0^{\circ}C$ were measured by the UV/vis analysis. Owing to its simplicity and capability of measuring the unreacted AKD significantly even in a small amount, UV/vis method proved to be more suitable for studing AKD hydrolysis than GC-MS analysis. AKD hydrolysis was affected by the types of emulsifiers. Polymer stabilized AKD emulsion hydrolyzed more rapidly than starch stabilized AKD.

Under W/O emulsion method using a homogenizer, ${\alpha}$-alumina powder was prepared to evaluate the effects of experimental conditions on its properties, such as particle shape, extent of aggregation, average particle size and distribution. The experimental parameters were the change of type, quantity and composition of emulsifiers as well as the change of O : W volumetric ratio and agitation rate. As results, in the case of the use of single surfactant of SP80, sphere-like particles could be prepared and the average particle size was hardly affected by the agitation speed more than 16000 rpm regardless of SP80 quantity used. When the extent of aggregation among sphere-like particles prepared using $HLB_m$ = 5 of [SP80 & TW80] was compared with that prepared using SP80 at the same vol% surfactant and agitation speed, the former showed more or less low aggregation phenomena and average particle size was slightly reduced. In addition, the fraction of nano-sized particles with low aggregation was increased by the use of 0.1 vol% n-butanol, as a co-surfactant, with $HLB_m$ = 5 of [SP80 & TW80].

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a natural lipid cofactor with antioxidant and anti-aging properties as cosmetic and food ingredients, involved in cellular energy metabolism. Here, nano-emulsions with CoQ10 were fabricated with lecithin, ethanol, oil, and sorbitan monostearate (Arlacel 60), as major components. Phase inversion emulsion method with ultrasonicator was utilized in producing CoQ10 solution, and stabilization effects from lecithin and ethanol and other diverse perturbation factors were evaluated over time. Physical properties of the emulsion were characterized such as its size, surface charges by zeta-potential, and the overall structures. Optimal concentrations of CoQ10 and Arlacel 60 were 0.8% and 3%, respectively, for producing the smallest sizes of nanoemersions in a 100 nm diameter with best morphology. No notable changes in the size were observed over 7 days from Ostwald ripening, when the concentration of Arlacel 60 was higher than 2%. Even after 270 days at room temperature, the size of nanoemulsions maintained as 115 nm in diameter, revealing only a 10% increase with high degrees of long termed stability and substantiality. In addition, changes in the surface potential occurred possible due to the flocculation effect on the nanoparticles.

This study was carried out for the development of assay method to quantify the soy protein content in meat homogenate, emulsion-type sausage and commercial meat products by Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay(ELISA). The standard antigen was extracted before and after heat treatment. It was observed that the degree of reaction was not varied significantly according to the heating temperature. The recovery rate in meat homogenate and emulsion-type sausage was not varied significantly according to the heating temperature. The reaction was not interfered with fat and spices of the samples. Samples with 10% soy protein showed lower correlation than those with 2% and 5% soy protein. The recovery rate in commercial meat products showed difference individually. The correlation of some products with raw vegetable and wheat starch was relatively low.

This study presents the preparation of double emulsions in a poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)-based microfluidic device. To improve the wettability of hydrophilic continuous phase onto a hydrophobic PDMS microchannel, the surface was modified with 3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate (TPM) and then sequentially reacted with acrylic acid monomer solution, which produced selective covalent bonding between acrylic acids and methacrylate groups. For the proof of selective surface modification, tolonium chloride solution was used to identify the modified region and we confirmed that the approach was successfully performed. When water containing 0.5% w/w sodium dodecyl sulfate and 1% w/w Span80 with hexadecane were loaded into the selectively modified microfluidic channels, we can produce stable double emulsion. Based on the spreading coefficients, we predict the morphology of double emulsions. Our proposed method efficiently produces monodisperse double emulsions having 48.5 ${\mu}m$(CV:1.6%) core and 65.1 ${\mu}m$ (CV:1.6%) shell. Furthermore, the multiple emulsions having different numbers of core were easily prepared by simple control of flow rates.
