용융탄산염 연료전지 상용화를 위해서 40,000 시간이상 장기 운전이 가능해야 한다. 장기운전을 위해 크랙 발생이 적고 기계적 강도가 높은 강화 매트릭스의 개발이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $LiAlO_2$에 알루미늄 나노입자를 첨가하여 매트릭스의 기계적 강도를 향상시키는 연구를 수행하였다. 나노 알루미늄 첨가 $LiAlO_2$ 그린 시트를 수소 분위기에서 열처리한 결과, 공기 분위기에서 열처리한 매트릭스에 비해 기계적 강도가 1.5배 증가함을 확인하였다. 이는 환원분위기에서 열처리를 할 경우, 알루미늄의 입자간의 소결으로 인한 neck이 형성 되어 $LiAlO_2$ 입자 간에 다리를 만들어주는 효과가 나타나 매트릭스의 기계적 강도가 크게 증진되었으리라 판단된다.

The three-reactor chemical-looping process (TRCL) for the production of hydrogen from natural gas is attractive for both $CO_2$ capture and hydrogen production. In this study, redox property of $Fe_2O_3$ and $WO_3$ supported with $ZrO_2$ and $MgAl_2O_4$ were studied with temperature programmed oxidation/reduction (TPO/R) experiment. All metal oxides were prepared by ball mill method. Metal oxides supported with $ZrO_2$ showed the good redox property in TPO and TPR tests. Reduction behavior was matched well the theoretical reduction mechanism. Metal oxides supported with $MgAl_2O_4$ formed a solid solution ($MgFe_{0.6}Al_{1.4}O_4$, $MgWO_4$). $Fe_2O_3$ showed more narrow reaction range and lower reaction temperature than $WO_3$.

A damage-reduced trench was investigated in view of the defect distribution along trench sidewall and bottom using high resolution transmission electron microscopy, which was formed by HBr plasma and additive gases in magnetically enhanced reactive ion etching system. Adding $O_2$ and other additive gases into HBr plasma makes it possible to eliminate sidewall undercut and lower surface roughness by forming the passivation layer of lateral etching. To reduce the RIE induced damage and obtain the fine shape trench corner rounding, we investigated the hydrogen annealing effect after trench formation. Silicon atomic migration on trench surfaces using high temperature hydrogen annealing was observed with atomic scale view. Migrated atoms on crystal surfaces formed specific crystal planes such as (111), (113) low index planes, instead of fully rounded comers to reduce the overall surface energy. We could observe the buildup of migrated atoms against the oxide mask, which originated from the surface migration of silicon atoms. Using this hydrogen annealing, more uniform thermal oxide could be grown on trench surfaces, suitable for the improvement of oxide breakdown.

The approximate rates and stoichiometries of the reaction of lithium borohydride, with fifty two selected organic compounds containing representative functional groups under the standard condition (tetrahydrofuran, $0^{\circ}$), were studied.Among the active hydrogen compounds,primary alcohols and compounds containing an acidic proton liberated hydrogen relatively fast, but secondary and tertiary alcohols very sluggishly. All the carbonyl compounds examined were reduced rapidly within one hour. Especially, among the ${\alpha}{\beta}$-unsaturated carbonyl compounds tested, the aldehydes consumed one hydride cleanly, however the cyclic ketones consumed more than one hydride even at $-20^{\circ}$. Carboxylic acids were reduced very slowly, showing about 60% reduction in 6 days at $25^{\circ}$, however acyl chlorides reduced immediately within 30 minutes. On the other hand, the reductions of cyclic anhydrides proceeded moderately to the hydroxy acid stage, however the further reductions were very slow. Aromatic and aliphatic esters, with exception of the relatively moderate reduction of acetate, were reduced very slowly, however lactones were reduced at a moderate rate. Epoxides reacted slowly, but amides and nitriles as well as the nitro compounds were all inert to this reagent. And cyclohexanone oxime and phenyl isocyanate were reduced very sluggishly. Last of all, all sulfur compounds studied were inert to this hydride.

The recovery of copper from $\alpha$-Etchent waste and pure copper solution was studied by the $H_2$reduction process. The results of test were as following: 1) The recovery of copper was increased with increasing hydrogen pressure and stirring speed up to 300 psi and 500 rpm, respectively, and was decreased in the higher values. But the recovery of copper from the fresh copper solution and $\alpha$-Etchent solution reached 90% and 60%, respectively. And in all tests the copper recovery from pure copper solution is higher by 30~40% than that from $\alpha$Etchent solution. 2) The recovery of copper was increased up to 30 minute of reaction time, and after then it became constant. The copper particles prepared in the initial 30 min have the needle-like shapes and in the longer reaction time than 30 min the shape was changed into noudle-like form. The average particle size was about $2~3\mu\textrm{m}$.

The effect of lithium chloride on the borane reduction of organic compounds was studied for three ketones, seven acid derivatives, three epoxides and cyclohexene in tetrahydrofuran at $0^{\circ}$. When compared with borane itself, borane-lithium chloride system enhanced the rates of reductions markedly of 2-heptanone, acetophenone, benzoyl chloride, phthalic anhydride, and three epoxides, whereas the reductions of benzophenone, four esters and cyclohexene showed little or no effect. $BH_3$-LiCl (1 : 0.1) reduced styrene oxide in 2 hr at $0^{\circ}$ to give 94.2 % yield of alcohols, 1-to 2-phenylethanol ratio being 60.8 to 39.2. And in the reduction of cyclohexene oxide, $BH_3$-LiCl (1 : 0.1) gave a quantitative yield of cyclohexanol in 2 hr at $0{\circ}$, however $BH_3$-LiCl (1 : 1) gave 58 % cyclohexanol and 42 % 2-chlorocyclohexanol. In the reduction of cyclohexene oxide, lithium nitrate showed no rate enhancement even when the salt was added in large excess. A formation of lithium chloroborohydride in the$BH_3$-LiCl system is suggested.

수소는 연료전지 등의 에너지원으로 사용될 경우 NOx, SOx, $CO_2$ 등의 한경오염물질, 온실가스를 발생시키지 않기 때문에 친환경 에너지원으로 각광을 받고 있다. 수전해는 수소를 생산하는 가장 간단하고 효율적인 방법 중의 하나로서, 잉여전력 또는 신재생에너지에 의한 전기에너지를 통해 환경오염물질 발생 없이 고순도의 수소를 얻을 수 있으며 분산/대량 생산이 용이하다. 수전해에서 환원전극에서는 수소발생반응이 일어나고, 산화전극에서는 산소발생반응이 일어난다. 이때 주로 산소발생전극 촉매로는 과전압이 작게 걸리고 활성이 우수한 귀금속 계열의 $IrO_2$와 $RuO_2$ 등의 촉매가 현재 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고분자 용액을 만들어 전기방사를 이용하여 공정변수에 따른 직경과 morphology를 확인하였고, 고가의 귀금속 산화물 대신 저렴한 전이금속산화물인 Cu와 Co를 이용하여 1D 나노섬유를 산소발생 촉매로 합성하였다. 합성된 나노섬유의 구조적, 물리화학적 특성을 분석하고 산소발생반응(OER)에 대한 전기화학적 활성 및 내구성을 평가하였다.

The present works were performed that titanium foil was anodized in various dilution ratios of seawater and distilled water with 10V external voltage applied, then annealed at $450^{\circ}C$ to obtain $TiO_2$ on the Ti substrate. The prepared samples were characterized by instruments (XRD, SEM, and photocurrent) and used to investigate rate of hydrogen production in photoelectrochemical cell as well as Cr(VI) reduction. As the results of experiments, the anodized $TiO_2$ in seawater electrolytes, which are ranged from 15 to 50 times dilution of seawater, was showed a relatively higher hydrogen production (ca. 97~110 umol/hr-$cm^2$) and Cr(VI) reduction (ca. 95% reduction).

최근 지구온난화로 인해 국제적으로 이산화탄소 저감에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있으며 특히, 이산화탄소의 분리 및 유용물질 전환 등의 다양한 방법에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 이산화탄소를 메탄으로 전환시키는 생물학적 반응은 acetotrophic methanogen, hydrogenotrophic methanogen 등의 미생물이 관여한다. 본 연구에서는 hydrogenotrohpic methanogen을 이용하여 메탄으로 전환하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 이산화탄소와 수소의 체류시간에 대한 연구를 진행하였으며, 선행 연구로 혐기성슬러지의 혼합배양균으로부터 hydrogenotrophic methanogen을 우점종화 하기 위해 고정층 반응기를 이용하여 이산화탄소와 수소 가스를 주입하여 고농도로 배양하였다. 그 결과, 반응기내의 이산화탄소의 메탄전환 균주로써 수소를 환원제로 이용하는 hydrogenotrophic methanogen이 배양되었음을 확인하였다. 이산화탄소와 수소가스의 체류시간에 따른 이산화탄소의 생물학적 메탄 전환 실험 결과, 약 4시간에서 이산화탄소의 저감률이 99%이었으며, 체류시간이 2시간, 1.5시간인 경우 이산화탄소의 저감률은 각각 71%, 68% 이었다.

수소 및 산소분위기 하에서 2Y-TZP 및 3Y-PZP 세라믹스를 소결하여 각각 제조한 다음, 각 시편의 미세구조 및 25$0^{\circ}C$에서의 등온상전이 거동을 비교하여 고찰하였다. 그 결과 수소분위기에서 소결한 모든 시편의 표면에서는 Zr$_{4+}$ 이온의 환원에 의해 산화분위기에서 소결한 시편에 비하여 색이 검게 변하였으며, 장시간 소결시 시편 표면에 조대 입자의 생성 및 입계 이완이 관찰되었다. 이에따라 수소분위기 하에서 장시간 소결된 시편의 경우 냉각 시 상전이가 일어나 다량의 단사정상이 상온에서 존재하였다. 저온 aging동안 등온상전이 속도는 산소분위기에서 소결한 시편보다 수소분위기에서 소결한 시편에서 낮게 나타났으며, 이러한 경향은 $Y_{2}$O$_{3}$의 고용량이 크고, 입자크기가 적은 시편일수록 증가하였다. 또한 2Y-TZP 시편에서는 입자크기에 상관없이 대부분의 정방정상이 단사정상으로 빨리 등온상전이를 일으켰으나, 3Y-TZP 시편의 경우, 등온상전이는 입자크기가 증가함에 따라 상전이 속도도 증가하였다.
