A basic objective is the preparation and surface studies of supported molten salt catalysts because molten salts can stay as the liquid phase in the range of the ordinary reaction temperature. Many kinds of metal salt mixtures for the formation of molten salt phase are appliable but CuCl and KCl were selected in this study because Cu is considered catalytically reactive in many reactons. The loading of the molten salt was selected as 25 vol% of the total pore volume of ${\gamma}-alumina$ to provide reasonable exposed surface area. The surface structure of catalysts containing molten salts in the ${\gamma}-alumina$ was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). CuCl and KCl were added into the ${\gamma}-alumina$ using concentrated hydrochloric acid solution by the impregnation technique. The surfaces of the prepared catalysts before and after heat treatments were compared and they suggested that the heat treatment of catalysts helped the formation of molten-salt although the surface compositions of CuCl and KCl were not uniform.

산화물 사용후핵연료를 대상으로 하는 파이로 공정은 고온 용융염 매질에서 산화물을 금속으로 전환시키는 전해환원 공정으로부터 시작된다. 이후, 전해정련 공정이 도입되어 전해환원 공정에서 금속으로 환원된 생성물을 처리하게 된다. 전기화학적 공정인 이 두 공정에는 전류전달 매질인 전해질로 용융염이 사용된다. 그러나 전해환원 공정은 LiCl 염을 기반으로 하는 반면 전해정련은 LiCl-KCl 공융염 조건에서 운전하여 두 공정의 연계성 향상 및 공정 안정성 확보를 위해서는 전해환원 공정에서 생성되는 금속전환체에 존재하는 잔류염을 제거하는 공정의 도입이 두 공정사이에 고려되고 있다. 전해환원 공정에서 산화물이 금속으로 환원되는 동안 고체입자의 외형이 유지되며 따라서 제거된 산소에 의해 금속전환체에는 공극이 발생하게 된다. 또한, 전해환원에 도입되는 산화물의 물리적 형태가 분말 또는 펠렛 등 다양한 형태로 도입 가능하여 단위 입자들 사이에 많은 공극이 발생하게 된다. 이렇게 기존재하거나 또는 공정 운전에 의해 새롭게 생성된 공극에는 전해환원 매질인 LiCl 염이 침투하여 금속전환체는 염에 의해 젖게 되며 공정 종료시 고화되어 금속전환체에 포함된다. LiCl을 제거하기 위해서는 가열에 의한 증류가 연구되고 있다. 그러나 LiCl의 낮은 증기압에 의해 비교적 낮은 온도에서 증발시키기 위해서는 감압조건이 필수적으로 고려되어야 한다. 한국원자력연구원에서는 다공성 모의 금속전환체를 사용하여 LiCl에 의한 Wetting 후 적절한 증발 조건 결정을 목적으로 온도 및 압력 조건 설정을 위한 기초실험에 결과를 수행하였다. 본 연구의 기초 실험 결과 $700^{\circ}C$온도 조건과 감압조건이 잔류염 제거를 위한 공정조건임을 밝혔다. 또한 모의 금속전환체를 담고 있는 미세 다공성 Basket은 고온조건에서 공극의 변형에 의해 증발에 대한 저항으로 작용하여 증발 효율을 저하시키는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 잔류염 제거를 위해서는 전해환원 Basket이 비교적 큰 공극을 지녀야 할 것으로 판단된다.

This study was performed to test the combustive properties of pinus rigida specimens treated with methylpiperazinomethyl-bis-phosphonic acid $M^{n+}$ ($PIPEABPM^{n+}$)s and methylpiperazinomethyl-bis-phosphonic acid (PIPEABP). Pinus rigida Plates were painted in three times with 15 wt% $PIPEABPM^{n+}s$ and PIPEABP solutions at the room temperature respectively. After drying specimen treated with chemicals, combustive properties were examined by the cone calorimeter (ISO 5660-1). It was indicated that the specimens treated with $PIPEABPM^{n+}s$ showed the lower speed to peak mass loss rate ($MLR_{peak}$), (0.104~0.121) g/s than that of PIPEABP plate. In adition, the specimens treated with $PIPEABPM^{n+}s$ showed both the lower total smoke release rate (TSRR), (224.4~484.0) $m^2/m^2$ and $CO_{mean}$ production (0.0537~0.0628) kg/kg than those of PIPEAB plate. Especially, for the specimens treated with $PIPEABPM^{n+}$ by reducing the smoke production rate except 2nd-smoke production rate (2nd-SPR), (0.0254~0.02270) g/s treated with $PIPEABPNi^{2+}$, 2nd-SPR (0.0117~0.0146) g/s was lower than that of PIPEABP plate. Thus, It is supposed that the combustion-retardation properties were improved by the partial due to the treated $PIPEABPM^{n+}s$ in the virgin plate.

Each pinus rigida plates were painted three times with 15 wt% $PIPEABPM^{n+}s$ or PIPEABP solutions at the room temperature. After drying specimens treated with chemicals, combustive properties were examined by the cone calorimeter (ISO 5660-1). It was indicated that the speed to peak mass loss rate ($MLR_{peak}$), (0.104~0.121) g/s for specimens treated with $PIPEABPM^{n+}s$ was lower than that of PIPEABP plate. In addition, the total smoke release rate (TSRR), $(224.4{\sim}484.0)m^2/m^2$ for $PIPEABPM^{n+}s$ treated specimens except specimen treated with PIPEABPAl3+ and $CO_{mean}$ production (0.0537~0.0628) kg/kg was smaller than that of PIPEABP plate. In particular, for the specimens treated with $PIPEABPM^{n+}$ by reducing the smoke production rate, the second-smoke production rate (2nd-SPR) $(0.0117{\sim}0.0146)m^2/s$ was lower than that of PIPEABP plate. It can thus be concluded that combustion-retardation properties of the treated $PIPEABPM^{n+}s$ were partially improved compared to those of the virgin plate.

The processes for the smelting of a metal product and the solidification of a molten salt were developed respectively to treat the products from the electrochemical reduction process. The method for the separation of a metal product in a magnesia container from the residual. salt and consequent smelting of it to a metal ingot by the multi step heating in vacuum was proposed. The new concept using a dual vessel and a salt valve was also suggested for the solidification of a molten salt into a regular size and shape which is suitable for the transport and measurement. The results obtained in the study will be applied to the design of the hot cell demonstration system of the Advanced Spent Fuel Conditioning Process of KAERI.

The experiments have been performed to obtain zinc complex compound with smaller particle sizes, which is used as a charge control agent in manufacturing toner. Metallic salts and polyhydric alcohols have been studied to investigate their effects on the formation and the triboelectric charge of zinc complex-compound particle with different sizes. Reactants such as zinc chloride and 3,5-di-tert.-butyl salicylic acid have been used to form the complex compound. Polyethylene glycol (PEG-300), glycerin and ethylene glycol have been added into the zinc chloride solution beforehand to lower the reaction rate in the formation of zinc complex-compound. Aluminium(III) chloride has been mixed in the zinc chloride solution beforehand to restrain the particle size from growing. When PEG-300 and aluminium(III) chloride are used to lower the reaction rate and to restrain the particle size from growing, the average particle size of zinc complex compound decreases from $5.28{\mu}m$ to $2.33{\mu}m$, which was 44.1% of $5.28{\mu}m$.

Waterborne polyurethane dispersions (PUD) were synthesized from poly (carbonate diol), isophrone diisocyanate and dimethylol propionic acid at different NCO/OH molar ratios. Subsequently, the PUD was mixed with different types of alkali metal salts ($LiClO_4$, $NaClO_4$, and $KClO_4$) to prepare antistatic waterborne polyurethane coating solutions. Effects of the types and amounts of alkali metal salts were investigated on the surface resistances of the resulting coating films. The surface resistances of coating films were decreased with increasing the amounts of alkali metal salts added in the PUD. The coating films prepared with the same amount of alkali metal salts showed increased ionic conductivity with the order of $LiClO_4$ > $NaClO_4$ > $KClO_4$. Also, the surface resistances of coating films were increased with increasing the molar ratios of NCO/OH in the PUD.

금강 퇴적물의 지화학적 특성을 파악하기 위하여 상류에서 하류까지 21개의 표층 퇴적물을 채취하고 총금속(Al, Fe, Mn, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Pb) 입도별 금속 및 존재형태별 금속을 분석하였다. 또한 하천에서 연안역까지 미량금속의 공간적 변화를 보기 위해 부유물 을 일정 간격으로 채취하여 미량금속을 분석하였다. 퇴적물 중 미량 금속 함량을 평균 입도 와 밀접히 관계하여 변화하며 세립질실트 이하 부분에서 가장높은 함량을 보였고 이 높은 함량은 하천 부유물 중 금속 함량과 Mn을 제외하고 거의 유사한 수준이었다. Pb은 조립질 모래에서도 높은 함량을 보이는데 이는 조립질 모래에 많이 포함된 정장석에 의한 영향이 되고 세립질 실트에서의 높은 금속 함량은 세립한 중광물에 의한 영향이다. Mn과 Pb을 제 안한 금속들은 퇴적물 중 주로(70% 이상) 결정 격자와 관계하여 존재하는데 이는 퇴적물의 주구성 입도가 조립하여 금속이 풍부하고 세립한 중광 물에 의한 영향이 크기 때문이다. 하 천에서 염하구로 금속 함량이 급격히 감소하는데 이는 용존 $Mn^{+2}$이온이 $MnO_2$로 변화하는 산화반응과 하천구역에서의 퇴적 그리고 염하구에서 금속이 적어 진 입자(염하구 내에서 유기물 분해/용해로 만들어지거나 재부유 작요에 의한 조립질 물질) 와 하천 부유물과의 혼합작용에 의해 이루어진다.
