Ag-deposited graphite powder was prepared by a chemical reduction method of metal particles onto graphite powder. X-ray diffraction observation of Ag-deposited graphite powder revealed that silver existed in a metallic state, but not in an oxidized one. From SEM measurement, ultrafine silver particles were highly dispersed on the surface of graphite particles. Cylindrical lithium ion secondary battery was manufactured using Ag-deposited graphite anodes and $LiCoO_2$ cathodes. The cycleability of lithium ion secondary battery using Ag-deposited graphite anodes was superior to that of original graphite powder. The improved cycleability may be due to both the reduction of electric resistance between electrodes and the highly durable Ag-graphite anode.

New Ag-deposited graphite anodes were developed using wet chemical reduction methods for depositing Ag metal onto graphite particles. In this paper, we investigated X-ray diffraction pattern and charge-discharge behavior for Ag-deposited graphite anode. The Lithium ion cello using Ag-deposited graphite anode showed a high average discharge voltage of 3.6∼3.W and a excellent cycle ability than that of conventional graphite. Little capacity loss in this battery may be due to the highly durable Ag-deposited graphite anodes.

In this study, nitrogen oxide (NO_x) removal experiments were performed using a graphene based ceramic filter coated with a V₂O₅-WO₃-TiO₂ catalyst. Graphene oxide (GO) was prepared by Hummer's method using graphite, and the reduced graphene oxide was produced by reducing with hydrazine (N₂H₄). Vanadium (V), Tungsten (W), and Titanium (Ti) were coated by the sol-gel method, and then a metal oxide-supported filter was prepared through a calcination process at 350 ℃. A NO_x removal efficiency test was performed for the catalytic ceramic filters with UV light in a humid condition. When graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) were present on the filter, the NOx removal efficiency was superior to that of the conventional ceramic filter. Most likely, this is due to an improvement in the adsorption properties of NOx molecules on graphene coated surfaces. As the concentration of graphene increased, higher NO_x removal efficiency was confirmed.
