Steam reforming of n-hexadecane, a major component of diesel over Ni-based hydrotalcite-like catalyst was carried out at $900^{\circ}C$ at atmospheric pressure with space velocity of $10,000h^{-1}$ and feed molar ratio of steam/carbon=3.0. Ni-based hydrotalcite catalyst was prepared by a solid phase crystallization (spc) method and characterized by $N_2$-physisorption, CO chemisorption, TPR., XRD, and TEM techniques. It was found that spc Ni/MgAl catalyst showed higher catalytic stability and inhibition of carbon formation than Ni/$\gamma-Al_2O_3$ catalyst under the tested conditions. The results suggest that the modified spc-Ni/MgAl catalyst after optimization may be applied for the SR reaction of diesel.

용융탄산염 연료전지 양극 재료인 tape casting된 다공성 Ni-Cr 합금과 Ni-Al 합금의 전기화학적 특성과 소결 및 creep특성이 양극조건의 분위기 $650^{\circ}C$에서 조사되었다. 이들 전극재료의 전류밀도는 100 mV의 과전압에서 약 100~150㎃/$\textrm{cm}^2$의 크기이었다. Ni-Al 합금에서는 Ni 표면에 형성된 $Al_2$O$_3$의 영향으로 소결저항성이 큰 것으로 나타났으며, Creep 특성도 Al 첨가량의 증가에 의해 향상되었다.

Ni/Ti/Al multilayer system was tested for low-resistance ohmic contact formation to Al-implanted p-type 4H-SiC. Compared with conventional process using Ni, Ni/Ti/Al contact shows perfect ohmic behavior, and possesses much lower contact resistance of about $2.5\times10^{-4}\Omega{\cdot}cm^2$ after $930^{\circ}C$ RTA, which is about 2 orders of magnitude smaller than that of Ni contact. Contact resistance gradually increased as the RTA temperature was lowered in the range of 840 ~ $930^{\circ}C$, and about $3.4\times10^{-4}\Omega{\cdot}cm^2$ was obtained at the lowest RTA temperature of $840^{\circ}C$. Therefore, it was shown that RTA temperature for ohmic contact formation can be lowered to at least $840^{\circ}C$ without significant compromise of contact resistance.

IrMn을 반강자성체로 사용하고 순수한 Al을 자연산화시켜서 제작한 Al203를 절연층으로 사용한 spin-valve 형태의 NiFe/Co/Al2O3/Co/IrMn 터널링 접합의 자기저항효과를 조사하였다. IrMn의 두께가 약 100$\AA$이상일 경우 강자성체와의 교환상호작용이 발생하기 때문에 NiFe(183$\AA$)/Co(17$\AA$)/Al-oxide(16$\AA$)IrMn(100$\AA$) 터널링 접합에서 자기저항효과가 관찰되며 TMR비(%)는 $\pm$20 Oe의 인가자장에서 10% 이상의 값을 갖는다. 하부 자성층인 NiFe/Co의 길이방향으로 수행한 자장 중 열처리에 의해 저항은 다소 감소하고 TMR비(%)는 열처리온도에 따라 증가하여 20$0^{\circ}C$에서 23%의 최대값을 갖는다. 자성층의 폭을 변호시켜 접합면적을 달리한 시료의 TMR비(%)는 접합면적이 증가할수록 증가하고 저항은 감소한다.

Here, we report preparation of cyan ceramic nano-pigment for inkjet printing and the Ni substitutional effects on the cyan color. $MgAl_2O_4$ was selected as the crystalline host network for the synthesis of nickel-based cyan ceramic nano-pigments. Various compositions of $Ni_xMg_{1-x}Al_2O_4$ ($0{\leq}x{\leq}1$) powders were prepared using the polymerized complex method. The powder was then preheated at $400^{\circ}C$ for 5 h and finally calcined at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 5 h. XRD patterns of $Ni_xMg_{1-x}Al_2O_4$ showed a single phase of the spinel structure in all the compositions. The particle sizes ranged from 20 to 50 nm in TEM observations. The characteristics of the color tones of $Ni_xMg_{1-x}Al_2O_4$ were analyzed by UV-Visible spectroscopy and CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ measurement. CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ measurement results indicate that the pigment color changes from light cyan to deep cyan due to the decrease of the $a^*$ and $b^*$ values with an increase of an Ni substitutional amount. In addition, the thermal stability and the binding nature of $Ni_xMg_{1-x}Al_2O_4$ are also discussed using TG-DSC and FT-IR results respectively.

Precipitation behavior has been studied in NiTi-based ordered alloy using transmission electron microscopy. The hardness after solution treatment is high in NiTi alloy suggesting the large contribution of solid solution strengthening in this alloy system. However, the amount of age hardening is not large as compared to the large microstructural variations during aging. At the beginning of aging, the $L2_1-type$ $Ni_2AlTi$ precipitates keep a lattice coherency with the NiTi matrix. By longer periods of aging $Ni_2AlTi$ precipitates lose their coherency and change their morphology to the globular ones surrounded by misfit dislocations. Misfit dislocations, which are observed on {100} planes of H-precipitates have the Burgers vector of a <100> with a pure edge type. The lattice misfits of $NiTi-Ni_2AlTi$ system is estimated from the spacings of misfit dislocations to be 1.3% at 1273 K. The lattice misfits decrease with increasing aging temperature in this system.

The effects of boron or manganese added as $B_4C$, Mn, $TiB_2$, B on TiC-30vo1.%$Ni_3Al$ cermet sintered at 1380 and $1400^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour, were examined in relation with shrinkage, relative density, microstructure, lattice parameter, hardness and fracture toughness ($K_{IC}$). The results are summarized as follows: 1) The highest shrink-age showed about 30.5% in the specimen added B$_4$C and the maximum relative density was about 99% in the specimen added $TiB_2$; 2) The grains of TiC were grown during sintering and made the surrounding structure by adding boron and manganese. The largest grain size showed about $2.8\mutextrm{m}$ in the specimen with boron sintered at $1400^{\circ}C$;3) The lattice parameter of TiC was about $4.325\AA$ and $Ni_3Al$ about $3.592\AA$ by adding other elements; 4) The highest hardness was about $1100kgf/\textrm{mm}^2$ in the specimen with B4C; 5) The fracture toughness ($K_{IC}$) showed about $15MNm^{-3/2}$ in the specimen added $TiB_2$.

The metal monolith catalyst coated with 15wt% Ni/$MgAl_2O_4$ is applied to the natural gas steam reforming for hydrogen production. To address the improvement of adherence between metal monolith and catalyst coating layer, the pre-calcination temperature as well as the coating conditions of $Al_2O_3$ sol are optimized. When the Fe-Cr alloy monolith is pre-calcined at $900^{\circ}C$ for 6 h, $Al_2O_3$ layer was formed uniformly on the entire surface of the metal substrate. It is seen that the formation of $Al_2O_3$ layer on the monolith surface is essential for the uniform coating of $Al_2O_3$ sol onto the monolith substrate. The monolith catalyst coated with 10wt% $Al_2O_3$ sol shows high $CH_4$ conversion and good thermal stability as compared with the monolith catalyst without $Al_2O_3$ sol coating under severe reaction conditions with high GHSV of 30,000 $h^{-1}$ at $700^{\circ}C$. In addition, the metal monolith catalyst shows higher catalytic activity and better thermal conductivity than 15wt% Ni/$MgAl_2O_4$ pellet catalyst.

Ni-Cr-Al metal-foam-supported catalysts for steam methane reforming (SMR) are manufactured by applying a catalytic Ni/Al₂O₃ sol-gel coating to powder alloyed metallic foam. The structure, microstructure, mechanical stability, and hydrogen yield efficiency of the obtained catalysts are evaluated. The structural and microstructural characteristics show that the catalyst is well coated on the open-pore Ni-Cr-Al foam without cracks or spallation. The measured compressive yield strengths are 2-3 MPa at room temperature and 1.5-2.2 MPa at 750℃ regardless of sample size. The specimens exhibit a weight loss of up to 9-10% at elevated temperature owing to the spallation of the Ni/Al₂O₃ catalyst. However, the metal-foam-supported catalyst appears to have higher mechanical stability than ceramic pellet catalysts. In SMR simulations tests, a methane conversion ratio of up to 96% is obtained with a high hydrogen yield efficiency of 82%.

An optimum route to fabricate the $A1_2O_3/Fe-Ni$ alloy nanocomposites with sound microstructure and enhanced mechanical properties as well as magnetism was investigated. To prepare homogeneous nanocomposite powders of Fe-Ni alloy and $Al_2O_3$, the solution-chemistry routes using $Al_2O_3 \; Ni(NO_3)_2{\cdot}6H_2O$ and $Fe(NO_3)_3{\cdot}9H_2O$ powders were applied. Microstructural observation of the powder mixture revealed that the Fe-Ni alloy particles of about 20 nm in size were homogeneously surrounded $A1_2O_3$, forming nanocomposite powder. The hot-pressed composite showed improved fracture toughness and magnetic response. These results suggest that the synergy materials with an improved mechanical properties and excellent functionality can be fabricated by controlled powder preparation and consolidation processing.
