IDS2 Frontiers in Cosmetic Science and Technology Sponsored by COSMAX
In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Polymer Society of Korea (PSK), this special session highlights recent advances and future directions in polymer science and soft materials tailored for the cosmetic industry.
Supported and hosted by COSMAX, a leading global cosmetic company from Korea, this session focuses on the innovative application of soft materials in cosmetics and related technologies. Leading researchers will present their recent achievements and explore the fundamental mechanisms behind cosmetic formulations, covering advanced delivery systems, structural characterization of cosmetic materials, and the physical phenomena governing product stability and efficacy.
By presenting both foundational discoveries and industrially relevant innovations, this session aims to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and stimulate discussion on future challenges and opportunities in cosmetic science for a technologically advanced society.

Topics will include:
- Advanced delivery systems for active cosmetic ingredients (e.g., liposomes and transdermal delivery)
- Structural analysis and characterization of cosmetic materials (e.g., AFM and accelerator-based research)
- Novel soft materials for cosmetic formulations (e.g., hydrogels, exosomes, and alginate-based formulations)
- Physical and chemical phenomena in cosmetic science (e.g., Marangoni flow, piezoelectric effects, and skin absorption simulation)
