Research paper : Products and evaluation device of cosmetics for UV protection (Y. Takao et al.)−148−Synthesiology - English edition Vol.3 No.2 (2010) yourself man) of Claude Lévi-Strauss (Fig. 1(b))[11][13].That local optimization does not equal overall optimization (synthesis error) is an assumption in the natural phenomena such as evolution. Therefore, the aforementioned analogies[3]-[7] are thought to include the solutions of the social elements where the short-term organizational interest is suspended as a cradle of the seeds for next-generation technology in the modern society, which at least is in the maturation stage. This study can be positioned as the segmentation of the aforementioned methodologies[3]-[13] into technological elements (logic and strategy of section 3.1) and social elements (suspension of short-term interest in section 3.2), as in the neutrality in the theory of evolution.5.2 Summary and future developmentThis study can be categorized as an aufheben type[5] as stated by Synthesiology, and the logical and strategic scenario method using powder technology to solve the technological element was combined with the regional cooperation efforts in the form of technical assistance to solve the social element, although no quick-acting scenario was set. As a result, we succeeded in the development of the cosmetics using sericite[15], a regional brand product, as well as the sales of evaluation device through the public venture. Later, these led to the implementation contract and the practical application of the basic research through the “AIST research result used” product label.Current issues are the overcoming of the valley of death upon reaching the product realization after R&D, and the market competition with the existing products, known as the Darwin’s sea, for wider business development of the technology and product[3]-[7]. Since multiple manufacturing processes are combined in the composite particle method, the unit price of the product increases due to increased processes. Its use becomes limited to high-function cosmetics, and its use in general-use product with larger market scale becomes difficult. The LS approximation method is technically complex, and is not sufficiently recognized as a simple ceramic quality control technology. Although the development period was limited, we must reflect on the fact that the functional development of the materials and the consideration of cost versus effect of the manufacturing and evaluation methods were insufficient.In the future, we shall promote the wider use of the product through expansion of morphological control case studies for high-control manufacturing method, pioneer new function and use, clarify the scientific aspects of evaluation parameters, and establish the database and JIS. We shall also emphasize the “reduce” aspect of 3R, utilize the trusting relationship nurtured through the adjustment of interests through regional cooperation, and seek ways to uphold the mission of the Materials Research Institute for Sustainable Development: “to promote innovation and effective use of resource for the development of materials that enable sustainable development”.6 AcknowledgementsI am grateful to Iwao Asai, Senior Research, Sanshin Mining Industry Co., Ltd., who has been working on the development of sericite for 10 years; Yasuhiro Shimada, President, Nano Seeds Corporation, who started up the company while a post-doc at AIST; and Hiroshi Asano, Chief Researcher, Nippon Menard Cosmetic Co., Ltd. that developed the product with “AIST research result used” label; and the guidance of all people involved.Y.
