본 연구는 최근 화장품 유해성분에 관한 이슈를 끊임없이 제기되면서 네일 제품에서 발생할 수 있는 유해물질 인체 노출 저감을 위한 안전관리 방안 마련을 목적으로 국내외 문헌고찰을 통해 네일 제품의 안전 표시 기준 현황을 비교 분석하고, 네일 제품 내 유해물질 허용 기준치 초과 사례를 파악하였다. 연구 결과 국내 유통된 인조 손톱 접착제와 네일팁에서 각각 톨루엔 40.3배, 클로로포름 22.8배, 안티몬 15.4배 초과 검출되었다. 선진국은 다양한 정책연구 및 법제화를 통해 작업장 물질안전보건자료 제공 및 환기 장치 설치 등을 의무화하고 있으나 국내에서는 별도의 안전 기준이 없어 네일 제품을 통한 유해물질 인체 노출이 심각한 상황이다. 따라서 네일 제품 작업환경 종사자 소비자 각각의 특성에 맞게 세부 네일 유해물질 안전관리 규정이 우선적으로 정립되어야 하고, 이에 따른 다양한 교육 프로그램 개발 및 보급을 통해 유해물질 화장품에 대한 인지도를 제고한다면 국민의 질병예방 및 건강증진의 융복합적 차원에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.

The nail service field, which has emerged as a new trend in the beauty industry, is showing rapid growth compared to other beauty fields. As nail beauty services become more common and popular, studies on related fields are also actively progressing, but most of the research has been focused on changes on self-esteem. In addition, most of the preceding studies are centered on female customers, thus, there is little data on male customers that are increasing recently. This research aims to provide customized marketing data to the nail beauty service industry by analyzing the psychological characteristics of the customers and their motives by selecting self-esteem and confidence as factors. First, the customers' confidence and self-esteem were classified into a group with high and low confidence and self-esteem, and as a result of analyzing the difference in service pursuit benefits and revisit intentions, there were significant differences in mood change, professionalism, health hygiene, aesthetics, and revisit. Second, as a result of analyzing the effect of the service pursuit benefits of male and female customers on the revisit intention, it was found that only health and hygiene had a significant effect on the revisit intention. Female customers also had a significant influence on their revisit intention, which is judged to have a significant effect on male customers' revisit intention because most of the main management is cuticle cleaning, callus management, and problematic nails.

Oriented strand board (OSB) distributed in Korea was collected, and its mechanical properties were investigated according to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), Japanese Industrial Standards, and Korean Design Standard. Ten types of OSBs were collected, including six types for walls and others for floors. The thickness swelling, moisture content, and density of each product satisfied the ISO standards. All products showed lower formaldehyde emission values than those of the SE0 grade. The internal bonding strengths of all products, except products B, H, and I, met the ISO standards. However, products A, B, C, F, and H did not satisfy the thickness swelling standard of the load-bearing OSB for use in dry conditions. Products D and G showed heavy duty load-bearing OSB for use in humid conditions in terms of internal bonding and bending strength after boiling. In the nail head pull-through force and lateral nail resistance tests, all products met the standards. In terms of the structural bending performance (four points), the six types of OSBs for walls satisfied the standard for bending strength and modulus of elasticity. All the products for flooring met the standard for bending strength but, except for product G, the products did not meet the standard for modulus of elasticity. Although the results of this study cannot represent the performance of all imported OSBs, considering the above results, the water resistance performance of seven types of OSB products did not meet the standard, and 10 types of products did not match the labeling grades.
