This study aims to investigate the enhancement of water resistance and improvement in adhesion to the skin by combining dextrin palmitate and isopropyl titanium triisostearate coating materials with titanium dioxide. Due to the recent increase in consumers who enjoy outdoor activities, the demand for sunscreen with excellent water resistance is increasing. Prior research was conducted with O/W, Pickering, and W/O/W multiple formulations, but there was a limit to water resistance. The purpose of this study is to develop a complex inorganic powder that can improve water resistance and increase adhesion to the skin to solve this problem. First, we combined dextrin palmitate and isopropyl titanium triisostearate coating materials to form a composite with titanium dioxide. The coating of the inorganic powder was confirmed using FE-SEM and FT-IR analysis. The composite exhibited significantly higher in vitro water resistance compared to other formulations. The hydrophobicity of the coated inorganic powder was compared by measuring the contact angles. When the coated inorganic powder was applied to the W/O sunscreen formulation and the non-coated inorganic powder was applied to the W/O sunscreen formulation as a control, the SPF of the sunscreen containing the coated inorganic powder was higher. These results were the same when observed with a UV camera. Finally the adhesion of the coated inorganic powder to the skin was assessed by applying it to a foundation product. In vivo study, it was observed that the product formulated with the coated powder exhibited less smudging compared to the foundation product formulated with the non-coated powder. The developed inorganic powder in this study demonstrated excellent adhesion to the skin, providing a superior sensory experience, as well as enhanced hydrophobicity and remarkable water resistance effects. In the future, the result of this study is expected to help develop various sunscreen products to improve water resistance.

to prepare the TiO2 thin films, acetyl-acetone(2.4-pentanedione)(1 : 1 molar ratio) was dissolved in the propanol solution of titanium(IV)isopropoxide(Ti[OCH(CH3)2]4). Al, Cr and Sb in the form of soluble salt and niobium ethoxide were added s dopants, respectively. Thin films were coated by the dip-coating method and characteristics were investigated by XRD, SEM and conductance meter. As a result, viscosity of sol was maintained below 4 centi Poise more than 20 days, and crystal growth and diminution of resistivity occurred as the heat treatment temperature increased. The grains grew over 1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and the lowest resistivity was obtained when Nb was added at 130$0^{\circ}C$.

Ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD) was successfully used to produce a dense and ultra-adherent Hydroxyapatite (HA) film on titanium alloy and alumina. Recently it is also proved that the HA coatings on alumina substrate treated with 20 ppm $AgNO_3$ had the structure of $(Ag, Ca)_10(PO_4)6(OH)_2$, which exhibited excellent antimicrobial effects. The present paper aims to morphlogically characterize the adhesion of macrophages on newly developed Ag-HA coated alumina and Ti6A14V substrates and to evaluate the biocompatibility of the coatings in vitro. It can be found that the cell number on alumina of the concentration of $AgNO_3$ in the treatment, the cell number on Ag-HA coatings decreased. Up to 20 ppm $AgNO_3$ by Ag-treatment, the morphological development of the cells on Ag-HA coating was similar to that of the cells on HA coating, suggesting the biotolerance of the Ag-HA coatings.

Enhancement of the surface hydrophobicity of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) thin films deposited on substrates covered with titanium dioxide ($TiO_2$) nanospheres was studied. First, a low-temperature solution-phase method using polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as a surface capping agent and a water/dimethylformamide (DMF) mixture as the reaction medium was used to synthesize monodisperse $TiO_2$ nanospheres. It was possible to easily control hydrolysis rate of the Ti-precursors and the size of the synthesized nanospheres by varying the amount of PVP and the volume ratio of the solvent mixture. Spray coating of the synthesized $TiO_2$ nanospheres under the PDMS film increased the water contact angle of the film surface to $150.3^{\circ}$. This simple treatment can modify the surface morphology at a nanometer scale without any long or complicated nanoprocess; hence, the surface enters the superhydrophobic Cassie-Baxter regime.

Titanium nitride(TiN) films have been prepared by HCD plasma enhanced reactive ion plating. Density and temperature of the plasma generated by the HCD were investigated. It was shown that parameters such as the substrate bias voltage(0 350V) and N2 flow rate(10 180SCCM) influenced the growth, the growth, the microstructure and the color tone of the film mostly. In order to study the interface region, surface analysis by AES combined with sputter depth profiling was performed. Microhardness of the coated TiN films were measured by micro Vickers hardness tester. Also, the effect of coating parameters on composition, coating surface and fracture morphology, grain size and growth rate were examined.

Pure $TiO_2$and 10 mol % Pb-doped $TiO_2(Pb_xTi_{1-x}O_2$(x = 0.1)) powder and thin films have been prepared by the sol-gel method. Titanium isopropoxide and ethanol are used for pure $TiO_2$, lead acetate trihydrate and titanium triisopropoxide monoacethylacetonate are used for Pb-doped $TiO_2$, respectively. Films are coated on p-type Si(100) wafer and ITO glass substrates by the sol-gel spin-coating method. The powder and multi-coated films are annealed at different temperature (400~$800^{\circ}C$) for phase formation and crystallization. TGA/DTA, XRD analysis, SEM and UV-visible transmission spectroscopy have been used to study the characteristics of the powder and films. XRD results show that the films are polycrystalline, anatase type and oriented predominantly to the A(101) plane. A slight shift in the d-spacing for the Pb-doped film indicates the incorporation of the Pb into $TiO_2$lattice. A shift of the absorption wavelength in the transmission spectrum towards longer wavelength has been observed about $Pb_xT_{1-x}O_2$(x = 0.1) thin film, which indicates a decrease in the bandgap of $TiO_2$upon Pb-doping.

In general, the pearlescent pigment is a pigment which was used for optical characteristics like pearl, rainbow and metallic luster. Titanium dioxide coated mica plate developed by DuPont in 1965 is currently being used as a main part of pearlescent pigment for cosmetics. Although the smooth and clear surface substrate laminated with 2 ~ 3 ingredients is thicker than a previous monolayer coated substrate, it has been applied for cosmetics as the optical interference powder to realize stronger shine and brighter interference color than monolayer one. In this study, we developed a new optical interference powder with thinner and higher chroma than a current pearlescent pigment for the strong luster and bright interference color. It was prepared from the manufacturing process, in which the coated titanium dioxide precursor was changed and crystallized by coating and heat treatment process with a half of dividing the coated amount of titanium dioxide. We confirmed the dense coating of titanium dioxide grain with Scanning Electron Microscope and measured superior crystallization degree compared with a monolayer coated pearlescent pigment by X-ray Diffraction. It is concluded that our new pearlescent pigment had higher reflectivity of light and stronger interference color than previous products.

Water repellent surfaces may enhance the condensation by efficiently removing the condensed droplets. However, such surfaces may lose their original performance as they are exposed to external mechanical stresses. In this work, we fabricated spray-coated mechanically robust superhydrophobic surfaces using treated titanium dioxide (Type 1) or silica particles (Type 2). Then we compared the mechanical robustness of such surfaces with the silane-coated superhydrophobic surface and PEEK coated surface using a controlled-sand blasting method. The results show that the spray-coated samples can maintain the same level of the contact angle hysteresis than silane-coated superhydorphobic surface after sand blasting at 2 bar. The spray-coating method was applied to the tube type condenser and the condensation behaviors were observed within the environmental chamber with controlled pressure, humidity and non-condensable gas. Previously-reported droplet jumping was observed in the early stage of the condensation event, but soon the droplet jumping stopped and only dropwise condensation was observed since the condensed droplets were pinned on the cracks at spray-coated surfaces. The static contact angle decreases from $158.0^{\circ}$ to $133.2^{\circ}$, and hysteresis increases from $3.0^{\circ}$ to $23.5^{\circ}$ when active condensation occurs on such surfaces. This work suggests the benefits and limitation of spray-coated superhydrophobic condensers and help develop advanced condensers for practical use.
