The chemical structures of perfluorinated compounds(PFCs) have unique properties such as thermal and chemical stability that make them useful components in a wide variety of consumer and industrial products. Two of these PFCs, perfluorooctane sulfonate(PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid(PFOA), have received attention and were the most commonly detected. In this study it was analyzed the concentrations of 8 PFCs in samples were collected from drinking water treatment plants for 5 years(2012-2016). PFOS and PFOA were also high concentration and frequency. The mean concentrations of PFOA and PFOS were detected 0.0026-0.0069 μg/L and 0.0009-0.0024 μg/L in samples from drinking water treatment plants. These were relatively lower or similar compared to PFOS concentrations in Osaka(Japan). In general, these levels are below health-based values set by international authoritative bodies for drinking water. These results will be serve as the first monitoring data for PFCs in drinking water and be useful for characterizing the concentration distribution and management of PFCs in future studies.

PFCs는 독특한 사용감과 특성으로 인하여 화장품에 응용되어질 때 많은 특장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 이러한 장점에도 불구하고 화장품 제형에 적용하기에 많은 어려움을 가지고 있다. 즉, 물과 오일에 불용성, 높은 비중, 높은 증기압 등과 같은 원료의 특징으로 인하여 PFCs는 화장품에 적용하기 위하여 특별한 안정화 시스템을 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서 PFCs를 안정화하기 위하여 gel network, spherulite lamellar, nanosturucture 이상의 세 가지 시스템을 이용하였으며 사용된 세 가지 시스템 중 nanostructure system이 가장 안정함을 알 수 있었다.
