Outline of Final Research Achievements	The continuous production technique of uniform particles controlled to millimeter scale from nanometer scale were investigated by combination method with electrostatic atomization and emulsion template method. Two electric emulsification apparatus as batch-type and flow-type were produced by author. The influence of an electric field and the operation conditions on emulsion droplets diameter were investigated by both sides of an experiment and simulation. The continuous production of oil-containing capsules of 100 µm succeeded by optimization of device constitution and operation condition.
