  • Transition metal oxide nanocrystalline materials are playing major role in energy storage application in this scenario. Nickel oxide is one of the best antiferromagnetic materials which is used as electrodes in energy storage devices such as, fuel cells, batteries, electrochemical capacitors, etc. In this research work, nickel oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by combustion route in presence of organic fuels such as, glycine, glucose and and urea. The prepared nickel oxide nanoparticles were calcined at 600℃ for 3 h to get phase pure materials. The calcined nanoparticles were preliminarily characterized by XRD, particle size analysis, SEM and EDAX. To prepare nickel oxide electrode materials for application in supercapacitors, the calcined NiO nanoparticles were mixed with di-methyl-acetamide and few drops of nafion solution for 12 to 16 h. The above slurry was coated in the graphite sheet and dried at 50℃ for 2 to 4 h in a hot air oven to remove organic solvent. The dried sample was subjected to electrochemical studies, such as cyclic voltammetry, AC impedance analysis and chrono-coulometry studies in KOH electrolyte medium. From the above studies, it was found that nickel oxide nanoparticles prepared by combustion synthesis using glucose as a fuel exhibited resulted in low particle diameter (42.23 nm). All the nickel oxide electrodes have shown better good capacitance values suitable for electrochemical capacitor applications.

  • The Sokli complex in the northeastern Baltic Shield (Finland) forms a part of the extensive Devonian Kola Alkaline Province. The complex contains ultramafic lamprophyres occurring as dikes of millimetric to metric thickness. The Sokli ultramafic lamprophyres have petrographical and geochemical affinities with aillikite. High concentrations of Cr and Ni with low Al$_2$O$_3$ content of the Sokli aillikites indicate a strongly depleted harzburgitic source. However, compared to the kimberlites, the lower Cr and Ni contents and mg-number with weaker HREE depletion of the Sokli aillilkites imply a smaller proportion of garnet in the source and thus suggest a shallower melting depth of the source. In order to account for high concentrations of all incompatible elements and LREEs, with high volatile content (especially CO$_2$), an additional enriched material is thought to have been incorporated into the Sokli aillikite source. An anomalous enrichment of K in the Sokli aillikites, compared to nearby ultrapotassic rocks and world-wide ultramafic lamprophyres, indicate a presence of K-rich phase (probably phlogopite) in the source mantle.

  • 정보화 기술이 급속히 발전함에 따라서 보다 많은 양의 data를 전송, 처리, 저장 하게 되면서 이를 처리 할 수 있는 대용량, 고속, 비휘발성의 차세대 메모리의 개발이 요구 되고 있다. 이 중 저항 변화 메모리(ReRAM)는 일반적으로 전이금속산화물을 이용한 MIM 구조로서 적당한 전기 신호를 가하면 저항이 높아서 전도되지 않는 상태(Off state)에서 저항이 낮아져 전도가 가능한 상태(On state)로 바뀌는 메모리 특성을 가진다. ReRAM은 비휘발성 메모리이며 종래의 비휘발성 기억소자인 Flash memory 보다 access time이 $10^5$배 이상 빠르며, 2~5V 이하의 낮은 전압에서 동작이 가능하다. 또한 구조가 간단하여 공정상의 결함을 현저히 줄일 수 있다는 점 등 많은 장점들이 있어서 Flash memory를 대체할 수 있는 유력한 후보로 여겨지고 있다. 저항 변화의 특징을 잘 나타내는 물질에는 $TiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, $NiO_2$, $HfO_2$, $ZrO_2$등의 많은 전이금속산화물들이 있다. 본 연구에서는 Reactive DC-magnetron Sputtering 방법과 DC-magnetron sputter를 이용하여 Ti를 증착한 후 Oxidation 방법으로 각각 증착한 $TiO_2$박막을 사용하여 저항변화특성을 관찰하였다. $TiO_2$상부에 Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD)를 이용하여 $HfO_2$ 박막을 증착하여 표면처리를 하고, 또한 $TiO_2$에 다른 전이 금속박막 층을 추가 증착하여 저항변화 특성에 접합한 조건을 찾는 연구를 진행하였다. 하부 전극과 상부 전극 물질로는 Si 100 wafer 위에 Pt 또는 TiN을 사용하였다. 저항변화 특성을 평가하기 위해 Agilent E5270B를 이용하여 current-voltage (I-V)를 측정하였다. X-ray Diffraction (XRD)를 이용하여 증착 된 전기금속 박막 물질의 결정성을 관찰했으며, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)을 이용하여 증착 된 샘플의 표면을 관찰했다. SEM과 TEM을 통해서는 sample의 미세구조를 확인 하였다.

  • Arsenopyrite in arsenic and polymetallic ores from calcic Fe-W skarn deposit of the Ulsan mine, Republic of Korea, has been investigated by means of electron microprobe analysis and X-ray diffractometry. As a result, it is revealed that the Ulsan arsenopyrite may be classified into the following three species with different generation on the basis of its mode of occurrence, chronological order during polymetallic mineralization and chemical composition; arsenopyrites I, II and III. 1) Arsenopyrite I-(Ni, Co)-bearing species belonging to the oldest generation, which has crystallized together with (Ni, Co)-arsenides and -sulpharsenides in the early stage of polymetallic mineralization. In rare cases, it contains a negligible amount of antimony. It occurs usually as discrete grains with irregular outline, showing rarely subhedral form, and is diffused in skarn zone. The maximum contents of nickel and cobalt are 10.04 Ni and 2.45 Co (in weight percent). Occasionally, it shows compositional zoning with narrow rim of lower (Ni+Co) content. 2) Arsenopyrite II-arsenian species, in which (Ni+Co) content is almost negligible, may occur widely in arsenic ores, and its crystallization has followed that of arsenopyrite I. It usually shows subhedral to euhedral form and is closely associated with $l{\ddot{o}}llingite$, bismuth, bismuthinite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, bismuthian tennantite, etc. It is worthy of note that arsenopyrite II occasionally contains particles consisting of both bismuth and bismuthinite. 3) Arsenopyrite III-(Ni, Co)-free, S-excess and As-deficient species is close to the stoichiometric composition, FeAsS. It occurs in late hydrothermal veins, which cut clearly the Fe-W ore pipe and the surrounding skarn zone. It shows euhedral to subhedral form, being extremely coarse-grained, and is closely associated with pyrite, "primary" monoclinic pyrrhotite, galena, sphalerite, etc. Among three species of the Ulsan arsenopyrite, arsenopyrite I does not serve as a geothermometer, because (Ni+Co) content always exceeds 1 weight percent. In spite of the absence of Fe-S minerals as sulphur-buffer assemblage, the presence of $Bi(l)-Bi_2S_3$ sulphur-buffer enables arsenopyrite II to apply successfully to the estimation of either temperature and sulphur fugacity, the results are, $T=460{\sim}470^{\circ}C$, and log $f(S_2)=-7.4{\sim}7.0$. With reference to arsenopyrite III, only arsenopyrite coexisting with pyrite and "primary" monoclinic pyrrhotite may serve to restrict the range of both temperature and sulphur fugacity, $T=320{\sim}440^{\circ}C$, log $f(S_2)=-9.0{\sim}7.0$. These temperature data are consistent with those obtained by fluid inclusion geothermometry on late grandite garnet somewhat earlier than arsenopyrite II. At the beginning of this paper, the geological environments of the ore formation at Ulsan are considered from regional and local geologic settings, and physicochemical conditions are suspected, in particular the formation pressure (lithostatic pressure) is assumed to be 0.5kb (50MPa). The present study on arsenopyrite geothermometry, however, does not bring about any contradictions against the above premises. Thus, the following genetical view on the Ulsan ore deposit previously advocated by two of the present authors (Choi and Imai) becomes more evident; the ore deposit was formed at shallow depth and relatively high-temperature with steep geothermal gradient-xenothermal conditions.

  • Tetragonal $K_2NiF_4$-type $La_{2-2x}Sr_{2x}Cu_{1-x}Fe_xO_{4-y}$ solid-solution have been synthesized by citrate based sol-gel method. The valence state of iron was determined by Mossbauer spectroscopy and subsequent iodometric titration clearly showed that the copper ions in this solid-solution are in the mixed valence state Cu(II/III). When x ${\geq}$ 0.3, Fe(III) is competing with the mixture of Cu(II) and Cu(III) and $La_{2-2x}Sr_{2x}Cu_{1-x}Fe_xO_{4-y}$ exhibits a metallic character. No evidence for Cu(II)-O-Fe(IV) ${\leftrightarrow}$ Cu(III)-O-Fe(III) valence degeneracy was observed. In contrast, a small amount of Fe(IV) is observed with increasing x (x = 0.4 and 0.5), revealing a semiconducting behavior. These results suggest that the electronic interaction of Cu(III)-O-Fe(III) contributes greatly to the metallic character, while the electronic interaction of Cu(II)-O-Fe(IV) deteriorates the metallic character of $La_{2-2x}Sr_{2x}Cu_{1-x}Fe_xO_{4-y}$.

  • CCU (Carbon Capture & Utilization) has a potential technology for the reduction and usage of carbon dioxide which is greenhouse gas emitting from a fossil fuel buring. To decompose the carbon dioxide, a three phase gliding arc plasma-catalytic reactor was designed and manufactured. Experiments of carbon dioxide reduction was performed by varying the gas flow rate with feeding the $CO_2$ only as well as the input power, the catalyst type and steam supply with respect to the injection of the mixture of $CO_2$ and $CH_4$. The $CO_2$ decomposition rate was 7.9% and the energy efficiency was $0.0013L/min{\cdot}W$ at a $CO_2$ flow rate of 12 L/min only. Carbon monoxide and oxygen was generated in accordance with the destruction of carbon dioxide. When the injection ratio of $CH_4/CO_2$ reached 1.29, the $CO_2$ destruction and $CH_4$ conversion rates were 37.8% and 56.6% respectively at a power supply of 0.76 kW. During the installation of $NiO/Al_2O_3$ catalyst bed, the $CO_2$ destruction and $CH_4$ conversion rates were 11.5% and 9.9% respectively. The steam supply parameter do not have any significant effects on the carbon dioxide decomposition.

  • In this study, a Ni0.9Co0.05Mn0.05(OH)2 precursor used as an anode active material using a black powder leaching solution of a recycled lithium ion battery was prepared through coprecipitation synthesis with co-precipitation time, NH4OH concentration, pH, and stirring time as variables. The characteristics of the prepared powder were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), particle size analysis (PSA), and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). It was confirmed that the single crystal thickness of the LiNi1-x-yCoxMnyO2 (NCM) precursor changes depending on the NH4OH concentration and reaction pH value, and thicker single crystals are formed at 2 M NH4OH compared to 1 M and at pH 10.8-11.8 compared to pH 11.8-12.0. NCM precursor particles increased with coprecipitation time, and it was confirmed that the 72 hours NCM precursor had the largest particle size. Through ICP-OES analysis, it was confirmed that the NCM precursor was synthesized with the target composition of Ni2+:Co2+:Mn2+=90:5:5.

  • The major and trace constituents of Mongolian chromite were analyzed by ICP-AES. The dissolution procedures, mixed acid ($HClO_4+H_3PO_4$) digestion and fusion with $Na_2O_2$ flux, have been studied to dissolve the chromite. The optimum dissolution method was found to be a fusion with $Na_2O_2$ flux. The effect of large amount of Na on major and trace constituents was examined when these elements were determined by ICP-AES. There was no effect on major elements at a concentration of Na 250 mg/L solution. The emission intensity of trace constituents containing Na 1,250 mg/L decreased to 1.0-5.2% according to elements and wavelengths. The result of this method was compared with that of neutron activation analysis (NAA) to confirm the accuracy of this procedure. The results between two methods were in a good agreement within less than 5% for $Al_2O_3$, $Cr_2O_3$, MgO and -20 to 8% for Co, Mn, V, Zn, respectively.

  • The recovery of rare earth elements (REE) including La, Nd and Ce from spent batteries is important issues to reuse scarce resources. Herein, we present a simple recovery process to obtain lanthanum oxide ($La_2O_3$) from spent Ni-MH batteries, and demonstrate the conversion mechanism from $NaLa(SO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$ to $La_2O_3$. This strategy requires the initial preparation of $NaLa(SO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$ and subsequent metathesis reaction with $Na_2CO_3$ at $70^{\circ}C$. This metathesis reaction resulted in the crystalline lanthanum carbonate hydrate ($La_2(CO_3)_3{\cdot}xH_2O$) powder with plate-like morphology. On the basis of TGA result, the $La_2(CO_3)_3{\cdot}xH_2O$ powder was calcined in air at three different temperatures, that is, $300^{\circ}C$, $500^{\circ}C$, and $1000^{\circ}C$. As the calcination temperature increased, the morphology of powder was changed; prism-like ($NaLa(SO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$) ${\rightarrow}$ platelike ($La_2(CO_3)_3{\cdot}xH_2O$) ${\rightarrow}$ aggregated irregular shape ($La_2O_3$). Futhermore, XRD results indicated that the crystalline $La_2O_3$ could be synthesized after the metathesis reaction with $Na_2CO_3$, followed by heat-treatment at $1000^{\circ}C$, along with a change of crystallographic structures; $NaLa(SO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$ ${\rightarrow}$ $La_2(CO_3)_3{\cdot}xH_2O$ ${\rightarrow}$ $La_2O_3$.

  • The purpose of this paper was to investigate the effect of deposition configuration on the mechanical properties of the flame sprayed titania ceramic coating. The sprayed deposition configuration was made in different five types with titania ceramic and Ni-base alloy on the mild steel substrate. The composite coating exhibited superior mechanical properties such as hardness, adhesive strength, thermal shock resistance and corrosion resistance, whereas the mixed coating proved to be more resistant to erosion. Especially graded coating, which consist of Ni-base alloy undercost, intermediate grade coat and titania ceramic overcost, showed excellent mechanical properties.
