| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed ultrasound techniques which enable us to evaluate the diameter, the stiffness and the surface properties of microparticles in liquid without dilution and drying of the sample. In this study, thermo-responsive gel particles which showed drastic change in the diameter upon temperature stimulation were analyzed in order to simultaneously evaluate the size and the elasticity of the particles. The technique could be a promising tool for industrial applications, such as ink, cosmetics and so on, since these are difficult to be observed by conventional optical techniques.
