For the $CO_2$ reforming of $CH_4$, Ni catalyst was supported on La-hexaaluminate or on $\gamma$-$Al_2O_3$. The catalytic activities of Ni/La-hexaaluminate catalysts were measured at $700^{\circ}C$ using gas chromatography (GC) for 72 h, and the reaction was maintained up to 72 hfor the investigation of catalyst deactivation. The surface of each catalyst after 72 h reaction was investigated using SEM and TEM, and the composition of the carbon deposits was investigated by using EA, TPO and TGA. Ni/La-hexaaluminate shows higher resistance to coke deposition than conventional Ni/$Al_2O_3$ which seems to be due to strong interaction between Ni and the support material. As a result of the reforming reaction, various types of carbon deposits were created on catalyst surface and the amounts of them were much smaller in the case of La-hexaaluminate than on $Al_2O_3$.

Strong solid acid catalysts, NiO/Al2O3-TiO2/WO3 for ethylene dimerization were prepared by the addition of Al2O3 and the modification with WO3. The acid sites and acid strength were increased by the inductive effect of WO3 species bonded to the surface of catalysts. The larger the dispersed WO3 amount, the higher both the acidity and catalytic activity for ethylene dimerization. The addition of Al2O3 to TiO2 up to 5 mol% enhanced acidity and catalytic activity gradually due to the interaction between Al2O3 and TiO2 and consequent formation of Al-O-Ti bond.

Nb-doped $TiO_2$(NTO) coated NiCrAl alloy foam for hydrogen production is prepared using ultrasonic spray pyrolysis deposition(USPD) method. To optimize the size and distribution of NTO particles based on good physical and chemical stability, we synthesize particles by adjusting the weight ratio of the Nb precursor solution(5 wt%, 10 wt% and 15 wt%). The morphological, chemical bonding, and structural properties of the NTO coated NiCrAl alloy foam are investigated by X-ray diffraction(XRD), X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy(XPS), and Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy(FESEM). As a result, the samples of controlled Nb weight ratio exhibit a common diffraction pattern at ${\sim}25.3^{\circ}$, corresponding to the(101) plane, and have chemical bonding(O-Nb=O) at 534 eV. The NTO particles with the optimum weight ratio of N (10 wt%) show a uniform distribution with a size of ~18.2-21.0 nm. In addition, they exhibit the highest corrosion resistance even in the electrochemical stability estimation. As a result, the introduction of NTO coated NiCrAl alloy foam by USPD improves the chemical stability of the NiCrAl alloy foam by protecting the direct electrochemical reaction between the foam and the electrolyte. Thus, the optimized NTO coating can be proposed for excellent protection of NiCrAl alloy foam for hydrocarbon-based steam methane reforming(SMR).

Several plasma spray and metallurgical surface coatings such as $Al_2O_3$, $Cr_2O_3$, WC-Ni, and chromizing coating have been examined for their application in environments with high temperature, wear, and corrosion. The chromizing coating is different from others coatings in the manufacturing process the surface. These coatings' characteristics were tested experimentally, and the results were compared. WC-Ni shows good performance against thermal barrier, wear, and corrosion and is one of the best candidates for the environment considered herein. These coatings were studied for their application in the steel manufacturing industry. The most commonly required functions in this industry are thermal and wear resistance.

Ni/${\gamma}$-Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$의 촉매능 향상을 위하여 고에너지의 전자빔을 사용하여 처리한 후 촉매반응과 표면상태 변화를 관찰하였다. XRD와 XPS 분석 결과로부터 전자빔 처리된 촉매에서 표면의 상대적인 O/Ni의 비가 감소되고 Ni의 산화상태가 변화하였음을 관찰하였다. 2MeV의 준위에서 600 kGy의 선량으로 전자빔을 조사한 촉매에서 가장 높은 전환율과 수득율을 보임으로써 고준위 고선량의 전자빔 처리가 촉매능 향상에 유리함을 알 수 있었다.

현재 바이오디젤(Bio diesel)은 유지와 메탄올을 염기촉매를 넣고 전이에스테르화(Trans-esterification)반응하여 생산한다. 생산된 1세대 바이오 디젤은 분자 내 산소가 다량 함유되어 여러 가지 단점을 가지기 때문에 전이에스테르화 반응을 대체한 탈산소(Deoxygenation)반응이 주목 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 유리지방산(Free fatty acid, FFA)인 올레익 산(Oleic acid)의 탈산소반응을 수행하였다. 하이드로탈사이트(Hydrotalcites) 구조인 MgO-$Al_2O_3$(MgO=70 wt%)를 6시간 동안 $500^{\circ}C$에서 예비소성(Pre-calcination)하여 담체로 사용하였다. 제조된 MgO-$Al_2O_3$ 담체에 함침법(Incipient wetness method)으로 20 wt% Ni을 담지 시켰다. 제조된 Ni/MgO-$Al_2O_3$촉매는 소성온도를 변화시켜 반응 실험을 수행하였다. TPR 분석을 통해 산화-환원특성을 분석하였고 생성물의 원소분석을 통해 생성물의 산소함량을 측정하였다.

For commercialization of molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC), it has some problems to be overcome such as decrease of porosity and thickness of the anode under the operating condition (at $650^{\circ}C$ and working pressure of more than 2 $kg_f/cm^2$). Recently, Ni-Al alloy anode has been proposed to replace the conventional Ni-Cr anode as an alternative material to resist a creep and inhibit the sintering. The objective of this research is to sinter the green sheet of Ni-Al alloy anode during single cell pre-treatment process, which has several advantages like cost down and simplification of manufacturing process. However, the Ni-Al alloy anode prepared with a conventional pre-treatment process showed the phase separation of Ni-Al alloy and formation of micropore(${\leqq}0.4{\mu}m$), resulting in low creep resistance and high electrolyte re-distribution. In order to prevent the Ni-Al alloy anode from phase-separating, nitrogen gas was used in the process of pre-treatment. Introducing the nitrogen, the phase separation from Ni-Al alloy into nickel and alumina was minimized and increased creep resistance. However, there was some micropore formation on the surface of Ni-Al alloy anode during the cell operation due to creation of lithium aluminate. Addition of more amount of electrolyte into a cell, especially at cathode, made the cell performance stable for 2,000 hrs. Consequently, it was possible to make the Ni-Al alloy anode with good creep resistance by the modified in-situ sintering technique.

Structural studies have been performed on precipitation hardening found in $L1_2$ ordered ${\gamma}^{\prime}-Ni_3(Al,Ti)$ alloys using transmission electron microscopy. A uniform solid solution of ${\gamma}^{\prime}-L1_2$ ordered phase supersaturated with Ni can be obtained by solution annealing in a suitable temperature range. The ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ phase hardens appreciably by the fine precipitation of disordered ${\gamma}$. The shape of ${\gamma}$ precipitates formed during aging is initially spherical or round-cubic and grow into platelets as aging proceeds. High resolution electron microscopy revealed that the ${\gamma}$ precipitates are perfectly coherent with the matrix ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ as long as the ${\gamma}$-precipitates are plates. The loss of coherency initiates by the introduction of dislocations at the ${\gamma}/{\gamma}^{\prime}$ interface followed by the step formation at the dislocations. The ${\gamma}$ precipitates become globular after the loss of coherency. The strength of ${\gamma}^{\prime}-Ni_3(Al,Ti)$ increases over the temperature range of experiment by the precipitation of fine ${\gamma}$ particles. The peak temperature where a maximum strength was obtained shifted to higher temperature.

To investigate an effect of sintering atmosphere on microstructure and properties of metallic particle dispersed ceramic based composites, the powder mixtures of $Al_2O_3$/Fe-Ni, synthesized by chemical solution process, were hot-pressed under different atmospheres such as hydrogen or argon gas and different sintering temperature. Hot-pressed composite in a hydrogen atmosphere exhibited less reaction phase of $FeAl_2O_4$ and enhanced mechanical properties than that in an argon atmosphere. Furthermore, decreasing hot-pressing temperature produced a refinement of ceramic matrix and metallic dispersion particles as well as improvement of mechanical properties. The change of mechanical properties in the composites with different sintering conditions was explained by microstructural characteristics relating to reaction phase formation.
