Electrochromism (EC) is defined as a phenomenon in which a change in color takes place in the presence of an applied voltage. Because of their low power consumption, high coloration efficiency, EC devices have a variety of potential applications in smart windows, mirror, and optical switching devices. An EC devices generally consist of a transparent conducting layer, electrochromic cathodic and anodic coloring materials and an ion conducting electrolyte. EC has been widely studied in transition metal oxides(e.g., WO$_3$, NiO, V$_2$O$\sub$5/) Among these materials, WO$_3$ is a most interesting material for cathodic coloration materials due to its lush coloration efficiency (CE), large dynamic range, cyclic reversibility, and low cost material. WO$_3$ films have been prepared by a variety of methods including vacuum evaporation, chemical vapor deposition, electrodeposition process, sol-gel synthesis, sputtering, and laser ablation. Sol-gel process is widely used for oxide film at low temperature in atmosphere and requires lower capital investment to deposit large area coating compared to vacuum deposition process.

In this study, in using a piezoelectric material of $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-PbTiO_3$ (PMN-PT), which has a high electromechanical coupling coefficient, we have tried to study about this material can be practically available as a new biosensor to detect protein by using surface acoustic wave (SAW). As the results, the filtering of the center frequency of the PMN-PT substrate is a superior result to that of the $LiTaO_3$ (LT) substrate, but the result was not completely satisfactory. Also this study attempts to develop a sensing method to detect mismatched DNA in order to diagnose cancer. We could directly immobilize the MutS to the NTA using the EDC solution. But, we immobilized MutS using nickel and it is judged that is more effective method to detect mismatched DNA.

EAFD (Electric Arc Furnace Dust) is considered as pernicious pollutant, assigned hazardous waste. Since this dust is a by-product of industry, it contains valuable metals such as Fe, Zn, Ni, Cu which can be turned into resources by recycling process. In this study, hydrometallurgical process was applied to recover Zn from Electric Arc Furnace Dusts. The result showed 95% Zn recovery at 3M $H_2SO_4$, Solids/Liquid ratio 1:2 and aeration of 1.8L/min for 2hr. However there was 80% Zn recovery at lower $H_2SO_4$ concentration apply for pilot scale plant.

In this paper, $Pb(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{0.07}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{0.10}(Zr_{0.5}Ti_{0.5})_{0.83}O_3$ ceramics were fabricated by the conventional solid state method to obtain excellent dielectric properties for ultrasonic generators. The effects of 2nd calcination temperature on their microstructure and piezoelectric properties were systematically investigated. The tetragonality increased in the ceramics when 2nd calcination temperature increased to the optimized temperature at $750^{\circ}C$. At that temperature, excellent physical properties ($d_{33}=352\;pC/N$, ${\varepsilon}_r=1,687$, $k_p=0.570$, $Q_m=1,640$) were obtained for ultrasonic generator application.

Flame retardant(FR) properties were investigated with tricredyl phosphate(TCP) and tris(pentafluorophenyl)phosphine(TFPP) as additives for lithium-ion batteries. Thermal stability was improved with additives in $Li/LiNi\frac{1}{3}Mn\frac{1}{3}Co\frac{1}{3}O_2$ cells comparing to non-additive electrolytes. Oxygen evolution reaction of the cathode material was delayed to up $55^{\circ}C$, from $275^{\circ}C\;to\;330^{\circ}C$. Electrolytes with the 1 wt.% additives provided good FR properties while the resonable battery performance is maintained.

층상구조의 전이금속 산화물($LiMO_2$, M=Co, Ni, Mn)은 리튬이차전지용 양극재료로 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 차세대 리튬이차전지 시스템의 개발 및 고성능화를 위해서는 전지의 용량을 결정하는 핵심 부품인 양극재료의 고용량화 및 고안정화는 필수 불가결하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 상업적으로 큰 장점이 있는 고상반응 공정을 이용하여 리튬이차전지용 양극소재를 제조하고, 소재의 전기화학적, 구조적인 특성을 평가하였으며, 다음과 같은 주제를 가지고 연구를 진행하였다. $LiCoO_2$ 양극재료는 리튬이온전지로 널리 사용되고 있다. 높은 에너지 밀도의 리튬이온전지를 얻기 위해서는 $LiCoO_2$ 양극재료가 고용량화 및 고밀도화를 가져야 한다. 여기서 $LiCoO_2$ 분말이 irregular particle morphology를 가지면 tap density가 $2.2-2.4gcm^{-3}$로 에너지 밀도가 낮으나, 구형 $LiCoO_2$의 정극재료는 tap density가 $2.6-2.8gcm^{-3}$로 상대적으로 energy density가 높아지는 효과가 있다. 구형 $LiCoO_2$ 양극재료를 합성하기 위해서는 chelating agent를 이용한 "controlled crystallization" 침전법을 사용하여 합성한 구형 코발트 수화물을 사용하고 있다. "controlled crystallization" 침전법에서 사용되는 chelating agent로는 주로 ammonia가 이용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 chelating agent로 ethylene diamine을 사용하여 sodium hydroxides를 precipitation으로 침전 반응하여 구형 코발트 수화물을 합성하였다. 상기 방법으로 합성된 코발트 수화물과 리튬 수화물($LiOH{\cdot}H_2O$-고순도화학(高殉道化學))을 사용하여 고상법을 통하여 $LiCoO_2$를 합성하였다. 제조된 분말의 결정구조와 전기화학적 특성분석은 X-선 회절분석 및 리트벨트 구조정산, 그리고 충/방전 싸이클링을 수행하였으며, 분말의 미세구조 변화를 SEM을 이용하여 분석하였다.

Rhodanese from mouse liver was purified to near homogeneity by ammonium sulfate precipitation, CM-Sephadex ion exchange, hydroxyapatite and Sephacryl S-200-HR gel filtration chromatographies with a purification of 776 folds. The molecular weight was determined by Sephadex G-150 gel filtration and found to be 34.8 KDa. SOS-PAGE showed molecular weight 34 KDa and two identical subunits splitting by aging for 3 weeks at $-70^{\circ}C$ the molecular weight of which was 17 KDa. The optimal pH of enzyme activity was 9.4 and the pI value of the enzyme was 6.6. Rhodanese showed the optimal reaction temperature of $25^{\circ}C$ and near linear increasing pattern until 10 min. incubation. $K_m$ values of rhodanese for KCN and $Na_{2}S_{2}O_{3}$ as substrates were 12.5 mM and 8.3 mM, respectively. Rhodanese activity was inhibited by more than 70% at a concentration of 100 ${\mu}M$ of $Ni^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$, $Cd^{2+}$, $Hg^{2+}$ and $Cu^{2+}$. Other metal ions, such as $Mn^{2+}$, $Mg^{2-}$, $Ca^{2+}$, and $Fe^{2+}$ showed no effect on rhodanese activity.

Small amounts of additives such as mol % 0.13 NiO and mol % 0.01 $CaCO_3$were added to Cu-Zn-Mg ferrites. Basic composition of the Cu-Zn-Mg ferrites was $Cu_{Cu}$X/$Fe_{0.054}$ /$Zn_{0.486}$$Mg_{0.407}$ $Fe_{1.946}$ $O_4$(group A) and $Cu_{0.263}$$Fe_{0.027}$ $Zn_{0.503}$ $Mg_{0.262}$ $Fe_{1.973}$ $O_4$(group B). Specimens were sintered at different temperatures (1010, 1030, $1050^{\circ}C$) for 2 hours in air followed by an air cooling. Then, effects of various composition and sintering temperatures on the microstructure and the magnetic properties such as inductions, coercive forces, and initial permeabilities of the Cu-Zn-Mg ferrites were investigated. The average grain size increased with the increase of sintering temperature. The magnetic properties obtained from the aforementioned Cu-Zn-Mg ferrite specimens were 1,724 gauss for the maximum induction, 1.0 oersted for the coercive force, and 802 for the initial permeability. These magnetic properties indicated that the specimens could be utilized as the core of IFT (intermediate frequency transformer) and antenna in the amplitude modulation.
