초록

폴리아닐린 기반 이산화티타늄 복합체(폴리아닐린-이산화티타늄 복합체)를 다른 소성온도 조건에서 제조하여 일반 공기질 수준의 트리클로로에틸렌과 테트라클로로에틸렌에 대한 제어 적용성 연구를 수행하였다. 모든 조사대상 오염물질에 대하여 폴리아닐린-이산화티타늄 복합체의 제어효율은 제조 시 적용된 소성온도 변화에도 아무런 경향을 나타내지 않았다. 대신에, 소성온도를 $350^{\circ}C$에서 $450^{\circ}C$로 증가시켰을 때 3시간의 광촉매 공정 동안에 폴리아닐린-이산화티타늄 복합체의 제어효율은 트리클로로에틸렌과 테트라클로로에틸렌에 대하여 61%에서 72%로, 21%에서 39%로 각각 증가하였다. 그러나, 소성온도를 $450^{\circ}C$에서 $550^{\circ}C$와 $650^{\circ}C$로 더 증가시켰을 경우에는 폴리아닐린-이산화티타늄 복합체에 의한 트리클로로에틸렌과 테트라클로로에틸렌의 제어효율이 점진적으로 감소하였다. 이러한 결과는 폴리아닐린-이산화티타늄 복합체 내 아나타제 결정상의 생성량과 입자의 비표면적 변화 때문으로 판단되었고, 이러한 특성 변화는 X-선 회절과 주사전자현미경 분석결과를 통하여 확인하였다. 가장 낮은 주입농도(0.1 ppm) 조건에서 트리클로로에틸렌과 테트라클로로에틸렌의 평균 제어효율은 각각 72%와 39%이었고, 반면에 가장 높은 주입농도(1.0 ppm) 조건에서는 트리클로로에틸렌과 테트라클로로에틸렌의 평균 제어효율은 각각 52%와 18%로 나타났다. 공급 유량을 0.1 L $min^{-1}$에서 1.0 L $min^{-1}$로 증가시켰을 때 트리클로로에틸렌과 테트라클로로에틸렌의 평균 제어효율이 각각 약 100%에서 47% 그리고 약 100%에서 18%로 감소하였다. 또한, 상대 습도를 20%에서 95%로 증가시켰을 때 트리클로로에틸렌과 테트라클로로에틸렌의 평균 제어효율이 각각 약 100%에서 23% 그리고 약 100%에서 8%로 대폭 감소하였다. 본 연구결과를 종합해볼 때, 작동조건을 최적화할 경우 폴리아닐린-이산화티타늄 복합체가 일반 공기질 농도 수준의 염소계 화합물질 제어를 위해서 효율적으로 이용될 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, polyaniline (PANI)-based $TiO_2$ (PANI-$TiO_2$) composites calcined at different temperatures were prepared and their applications for control of trichloroethylene (TCE) and tetrachloroethylene (TTCE) at indoor air levels were investigated. For these target compounds, the photocatalytic control efficiencies of PANI-$TiO_2$ composites did not exhibit any trend with varying calcination temperatures (CTs). Rather, the average control efficiencies of PANI-$TiO_2$ composites over 3-h photocatalytic process increased from 61 to 72% and from 21 to 39% for TCE and TTCE, respectively, as the CT increased from 350 to $450^{\circ}C$. However, for both the target compounds, the average control efficiencies of PANI-$TiO_2$ composites decreased gradually as the CT increased further to 550 and $650^{\circ}C$. These results were ascribed to contents of anatase crystal phase and specific surface area of different particle sizes in the PANI-$TiO_2$ composites, which were demonstrated by the X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy images, respectively. At the lowest input concentration (IC, 0.1 ppm), average control efficiencies of TCE and TTCE were 72 and 39%, respectively, whereas at the highest IC (1.0 ppm) they were 52 and 18%, respectively. As stream flow rate increased from 0.1 to 1.0 L $min^{-1}$, the average control efficiencies of TCE and TTCE decreased from ca. 100 to 47% and ca. 100 to 18%, respectively. In addition, the average control efficiencies of TCE and TTCE decreased from ca. 100 to 23% and ca. 100 to 8%, respectively as the relative humidity increased from 20 to 95%. Overall, these findings indicated that as-prepared PANI-$TiO_2$ composites could be used efficiently for control of chlorinated compounds at indoor air levels;if operational conditions were optimized.
