촉매 생산에서 마지막으로 중요한 단계는 촉매성형이다. 여기서 압출성형은 촉매 성형방법 중 저렴하고 비교적 간단한 방법 중 하나이다. 여기서 중요한 것은 바인더의 선택과 입자 사이즈가 가장 중요한 요인이 된다. 촉매 압출성형에서 많이 쓰이는 바인더로 PVA(Polyvinyl Alcohol)와 MC(Methyl Cellulose), CMC(Carboxymethyl Cellulose)가 있다. CMC 바인더의 경우, 촉매의 접착력이 현저히 떨어져 촉매의 바인더로 사용하기 어려웠다. PVA, MC 바인더의 경우, 촉매의 접착력이 우수하고 압출성형이 잘 되었다. 그러나 PVA 바인더의 경우, 열중량 분석을 통해 재 소성과정에서 바인더가 완전히 제거되지 않아서 촉매의 물성 변화 및 활성에 좋지 않은 영향을 주었다. 그러나 MC의 경우에는 재소성과정에서 바인더가 완전히 제거되어 촉매의 물성변화에 영향을 주지 않았으며, 촉매의 활성 변화에도 영향을 주지 않았다. 그래서 메탄 수증기 개질 촉매의 압출 성형에 적합한 바인더로 MC가 적합하다고 판단된다. 그리고 압출용 반죽 제조를 위한 미분쇄된 촉매 입자의 사이즈에서 너무 작은 입자를 사용하게 되면 반죽은 잘 되나 촉매의 물성변화로 인해 촉매 활성이 저하되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그래서 볼밀로 정밀하게 입자 사이즈를 $10{\mu}m$ 이하로 조절하면 촉매 활성에 영향이 거의 없는 압출성형 촉매를 제조할 수 있다.

As the need for miniaturization in water purification filter increases, the development of filter media for single filtration with multiple function was strongly required. In this study, the molded activated carbon composed of single unit was manufactured by extrusion-sintering process, and then the flow rate, density and porosity were investigated using the molded activated carbon manufactured at various extrusion temperature. We confirmed that it was possible to manufacture the single unit-molded activated carbon when the extrusion temperature was $140{\sim}230^{\circ}C$ more than $133^{\circ}C$ being of polymer binder melting point, and the optimal extrusion temperature for the molded activated carbon with maximum flow rate was $170^{\circ}C$ since the molded activated carbon had low density and high through porosity. Also we confirmed that the flow rate through the molded activated carbon was strongly dependent upon through pore porosity compared to total porosity for the molded activated carbon.

The technology enabling the large-scale production of catalysts by extrusion is very important for the commercialization of the Fischer-Tropsch process. In this study, the influence of the binder on the extrudate of Fe-based catalyst well known as FT catalysts has been studied. Inorganic binders such as kaolin, bentonite, alumina sol and silica sol and organic binders were added during extrudate preparation. The extrudates have been prepared with various compositions, and the physicochemical properties of the extrudates have been examined by XRD, BET, PSD, TPR and UTM. The optimum binder composition of extrudate was established by comparing the FT reaction activity.

진공압출성형 공정을 이용하여 한쪽 끝단이 막힌 다공질 탄화규소 캔들 필터를 단일공정으로 제조하는 기술을 확립하였다. 캔들 필터 지지층의 특성 최적화를 위해 탄화규소 출발입자와 무기바인더의 첨가량 변화를 통해 기계적 특성과 기공크기 등의 분석을 수행하여 상용 캔들 필터의 수준에 대응할 수 있는 조합을 도출하였다. Mullite와 clay를 소결조제로 사용하고, $30{\mu}m$ 입도의 탄화규소 입자로 지지층을 제조한 경우, 30% 이상의 기공율을 보유하면서 50 MPa 이상의 상온 3점 굽힘강도를 나타낼 수 있는 조건이 확립됨에 따라 $125{\mu}m$ 입도의 탄화규소와 bi-modal로 사용할 경우, 상용제품의 특성을 상회하는 탄화규소 캔들 필터가 제조될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The objective of this study is optimization of extrusion process for preparation of pellet-type adsorbents employed with alum sludge. Effects of water content and methyl cellulose as a binder on the possibility of extrusion and physical properties of pellet-type adsorbents were investigated. The physical characteristics of the pellet-type adsorbents were studied using nitrogen adsorption and compression strength. With a ratio of water to sludge, 63/100, the adsorbent was well extruded with a cylindrical form and the compressive strength was the highest. With increasing methyl cellulose content, the compressive strength of pellet-type adsorbent could be improved, but the specific surface area decreased. The breakthrough time of the hydrogen sulfide could be increased significantly through calcination and the breakthrough capacity reached to 1,700 mg/g, which seems to be due to increase of surface area during calcination.

To fabricate the continuously porous alumina bodies by multi-extrusion process, carbon powder and ethylene vinyl acetate were used as a pore forming agent and a binder, respectively. As the change of extrusion pass number, reduction ratio as well as the volume fraction of core and tube, the porous alumina bodies having various kind of pore size and porosity could be obtained. The porous bodies showed continuous pore shape, high specific surface as well as high bending strength, which were compared with those of commercial alumina bodies. In-vitro study was carried out using MG-63 osteoblast cells to investigate of their biocompatibility. As a result, the cells grew well on top and bottom as well as inside surface of pore. From the result of in-vivo study of 3-dimensional porous alumina bodies using rats, it was confirmed that any inflammatory response was not found in the subcutaneous tissue around porous body. Also the porous bodies removed from the rats were fully covered with well-developed fibrous tissues and showed the formation of new capillary blood vessels.

In this study, the pellet-type adsorbents were prepared by extrusion using water treatment sludge. Effects of binder and calcination on physical and chemical properties of pellet-type adsorbents were investigated. The porous structure and surface characteristics of the adsorbents were studied using nitrogen adsorption, compression strength, scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, and infrared spectroscopy of adsorbed pyridine. With increasing of binder content to 5 wt%, the compressive strength of pellet-type adsorbent could be improved more than three times, but the surface area reduced by 30%, and thus the breakthrough time of trimethylamine was shortened. The breakthrough time of the trimethylamine, a basic gas, could be increased more than three times through calcination, which seems to be due to generation of acid sites composed of Lewis acid and Br$\ddot{o}$nsted acid sites on the adsorbent surface.

A heat-resisting diatomite protection tube, using diatomite as a main component, was manufactured through an extrusion molding of ceramic slurry in different component ratios. And its mechanical strength, carbon analysis and microstructural non-homogeneity were investigated. After fixing $60wt\%$ of porous diatomite whose particle size was $50\~100\;{\mu}m$, the optimum mixture ratio with composition variables by changing $1\;wt\%$ of each component that was silica sol$(4.3\~7.3\;wt\%)$ as an inorganic binder, CMC (Sodium CarboxyMethyl Cellulose $(6\~9\;wt\%)$) as an organic binder and paper powder$(4.7\~7.7\;wt\%)$ was obtained. As a result of the investigation on a composition containing $60\;wt\%$ diatomite, $5.3\;wt\%$ silica sol, and $7\;wt\%$ CMC, a heat-resisting protection tube that could be used as a molten steel probe for measuring the temperature and components of molten steel was developed. The bending strength, compressive strength, and elastic modulus of the protection tube developed, that contained $\le2.3\;wt\%$ carbon, were 7.1 MPa, 7.5 MPa, and 1090 MPa, respectively.

Diesel particulate filter (DPF) is a typical application field of cordierite (Mg₂Al₄Si₅O₁₈) honeycomb. Green body for DPF honeycomb was extruded using slurry paste and sintered at the temperature range of 980~1450℃. Quantitative crystal phase analysis was carried out by using Rietveld refinement method for powder XRD data. In conjunction with the quantitative Rietveld analysis, SEM-EDS analysis was carried for the crystal phases (indialite, cordierite, cristobalite, alumina, spinel, mullite, pro-enstatite). After removing amorphous phase on the sintered surfaces by chemical etching method, the shape and composition of the crystal phases can be clearly identified by SEM-EDS method. By combining the Rietveld refinement method and SEM-EDS analysis, crystal phase evolution process in DPF cordierite ceramics could be clarified. In addition, the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of the DPF honeycombs were measured and compared with the calculated CTEs based on the quantitative crystal phase analysis results.
