A formation of aluminum hydroxide by hydrolysis reaction in the water has been studied by using nano aluminum powder fabricated by pulsed wire evaporation(PWE) method. The hydroxide type and morphology depending on temperature and pH were examined by structural analysis. The Boehmite($Al_2O_3$.$H_2O$ or AIO(OH)) was predominantly formed in high temperature region over 4$0^{\circ}C$, while the Bayerite($Al_2O_3$.$H_2O$ or $Al(OH)_3$) below $30^{\circ}C$ of hydrolysis temperature. The Boehmite formation was preferred to the Bayerite in acidic solution in the same hydrolysis temperature. The slowly formed Bayerite phase showed facet crystalline structure, while the fast formed Boehmite was fine fiber with a large aspect ratio of several nm in diameter and several hundred nm in length, and with much larger specific surface area(SSA) than that of Bayerite. The highest SSA was about $420m^2$/g.

The correlation between polymeric aluminum species of coagulant and its coagulation efficiency was investigated using several commercial polymeric Al(III) inorganic coagulants (Poly Aluminum Hydroxy Chloro Sulfate 2020 (PAHCS2020), Poly Aluminum Hydroxy Chloro Sulfate 2500 (PAHCS2500) which was introduced in Korean water treatment plants. The poly aluminum chloride (PAC), Poly Aluminum Hydroxide Chloride Silicate (PACS)) and the aluminum salts ($AlCl_3$, Alum ($Al_2(SO_4)_3$)) were used for the purpose of comparison. The comparison of the coagulation efficiency of each coagulant was made by turbidity removal through the standard jar testing procedure and the determination of the hydrolytic Al(III) species was made by the ferron method which can differentiate the monomeric aluminum species from the polymeric aluminum species. Overall, PAHCS2020 and PAHCS2500 showed the better performance in turbidity removal than the aluminum salts. The performance of coagulation was even better without adjustment of pH during the coagulation experiment. The positive correlation between polymeric aluminum species of coagulant and coagulation efficiency was found.

The effects of clay, aluminum hydroxide, and carbon powder on the sintering of a Si/SiC mixture from photovoltaic silicon-wafer production were investigated. Sintering temperature was fixed at $1,350^{\circ}C$ and the sintered bodies were characterized by SEM and XRD to analyze the microstructure and to measure the apparent porosity, absorptivity, and apparent density. The XRD peak intensity of SiC in the sintered body was increased by adding 5% carbon to the Si/SiC mixture. From this result, it is confirmed that Si in the Si/SiC mixture had reacted with the added carbon. Addition of aluminum hydroxide decreased the cristobalite phase and increased the stable mullite phase. The measurement of the physical properties indicates that adding carbon to the Si/SiC mixture enables us to obtain a dense sintered body that has high apparent density and low absorptivity. The sintered body produced from the Si/SiC mixture with aluminum hydroxide and carbon powder as sintering additives can be applied to diesel particulate filters or to heat storage materials, etc., since it possesses high thermal conductivity, and anticorrosion and antioxidation properties.

본 논문은 국내에서 소방관이 사용하고 있는 공기호흡기 중 년도별로 폐기처분되는 공기호흡기를 수거 후 절단하여 실린더 재질의 상태를 기기분석을 통하여 관찰하였으며, 공기호흡기 실린더에서 안면부까지의 도관의 오염정도를 확인하고자 도관을 절개하여 오염여부를 확인하였다. 이로부터 공기호흡기용 압축공기가 실린더에 미치는 영향에 대하여 조사하였다. 연구결과 공기호흡기 실린더 내부의 금속표면 이 압축공기에 포함된 수분에 의한 부식이 발생된 것을 볼 수 있다. 부식에 의해 생성된 물질은 100㎛이하의 백색가루로 수분에 의해 부식된 수산화알루미늄이며, 부식으로 인해 발생한 이러한 수산화알루미늄 분말은 호흡 도중 사람의 폐에 들어갈 가능성이 있으며, 인체의 폐에 침착되기 쉽기 때문에 다른 대기오염물질보다 인체 건강에 더 큰 악영향을 초래할 것이다. 소방관이 착용하는 공기호흡기 호흡용 압축공기의 성분 및 조성에 대한 별도의 규정이 조속히 마련되어야 할 것이다.

천연 규산 알루미늄 광인 할로이사이트 광물로부터 고순도 ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$을 합성하기 위해 ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$의 전구물질인 수산화 알루미늄과 암모니움 명반을 합성하였다. 이들에 대한 열분해 반응기구는 열분석, XRD 및 IR 측정으로부터 규명되었고, 열분해로부터 얻어진 ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$의 미세구조 및 비표면적은 SEM 및 BET 측정에 의해 수행되었다. 이때 ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ 입자의 크기는 모두 ${\phi}$ = 0.1∼0.5 ${\mu}$m이었으나, 비표면적의 크기는 암모니움 명반으로부터 얻어진 경우(89.0 m$^2$/g)가 수산화 알루미늄으로부터 얻어진 경우(7.3 m$^2$/g)보다 매우 높은 결과를 얻었다.

Purpose: Due to the many problems with commercially available vaccines, the production of effective vaccines against brucellosis is a necessity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the immune responses caused by the chimeric protein consisting of trigger factor, Bp26, and Omp31 (TBO) along with aluminum hydroxide (AH/TBO) and selenium (Se/TBO) nanoparticles (NPs) as adjuvants in mouse model. Materials and Methods: Recombinant antigen expression was induced in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) bacteria using IPTG (isopropyl-d-1-thiogalactopyranoside). Purification and characterization of recombinant protein was conducted through NiFe₃O₄ NPs, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and Western blot. NP characteristics, including morphology and particle size, were measured in vitro. The recombinant TBO was loaded on to AH and Se NPs and were administered subcutaneously. After mice immunization, measurement of antibody titter and protection assay was performed. Results: The average sizes of AH and Se NPs were about 60 nm and 150 nm, respectively. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay results showed that the serum of mice immunized by subcutaneous injection with both nanovaccines produced significant immunoglobulin G (IgG) responses against the chimeric antigen. The results of TBO-specific IgG isotype (IgG2a/IgG1) analysis showed that both AH and Se NPs induced a type to T-helper immune response. In addition, the results of the challenge with the pathogenic strain of Brucella melitensis 16M showed that vaccinated mice with AH/TBO NPs indicated a higher reduction of bacterial culture than immunized mice with Se/TBO NPs and TBO alone. Conclusion: The results showed that AH NPs carrying chimeric antigen can be a promising vaccine candidate against brucellosis by producing protective immunity.

A study on the effect of the pH of precipitation on the acid consuming capacity, aging stability, physical and chemical properties of hydrous aluminum oxide prepared by the reaction of aluminum chloride and ammonium hydroxide solution was carried out by means of X-ray diffraction, IR spectra and differential thermal analysis. The results from these experiments are as follows: 1. Hydrous aluminum oxide precipitated at lower pH showed better acid consuming capacity, higher stability and more anion contained in the structure than that prepared at higher pH. 2. The hydrous aluminum oxide prepared at lower pH is amorphous and that prepared at higher pH is crystalline hydrated hydrous aluminum oxide, i.e., Bayerite and these results are conformed to Rhee's hypothesis. 3. The rate of loss of reactivity and the end-point reactivity are related to the pH of precipitation.

알루미늄 지금 및 스크랩 용해시 발생되는 알루미늄 폐드로스를 사용하여 황산알루미늄(Alum)과 폴리염화알루미늄(pooly Aluminium Chloride: PAC)을 제조하였다. 알루미늄 폐드로스를 황산과 반응시켜 폐드로스 중에 잔류하는 금속알루미늄을 용액 중으로 침출시켜 황산알루미늄 용액으로 제조하였으며, 알루미늄 폐드로스를 염산과 반응시켜 PAC 용액으로 제조하여 수처리응집제로 재활용하고자 하였다. 이와 같이 알루미늄 폐드로스를 재활용함으로써 수산화알루미늄을 원료로 사용하여 황산알루미늄과 PAC를 제조하는 종래의 방법에 비해 제품의 원료비를 줄일 수 있고, 매립 등으로 폐기시켜야 할 폐드로스의 양을 줄이는 효과가 있었다.

Industry- or regulatory-sponsored research activities on the resolution of Generic Safety Issue (GSI)-191 were reviewed, especially on the chemical effects. Potential chemical effects on the head loss across the debris-loaded sump strainer under a post-accident condition were experimentally evidenced by small-scale bench tests, integrated chemical effects test (ICET), and vertical loop head loss tests. Three main chemical precipitates were identified by WCAP-16530-NP: calcium phosphate, aluminum oxyhydroxide, and sodium aluminum silicate. The former two precipitates were also identified as major chemical precipitates by the ICETs. The assumption that all released calcium would form precipitates is reasonable. CalSil insulation needs to be minimized especially in a plant using trisodium phosphate buffer. The assumption that all released aluminum would form precipitates appears highly conservative because ICETs and other studies suggest substantial solubility of aluminum at high temperature and inhibition of aluminum corrosion by silicate or phosphate. The industry-proposed chemical surrogates are quite effective in increasing the head loss across the debris-loaded bed and more effective than the prototypical aluminum hydroxide precipitates generated by in-situ aluminum corrosion. There appears to be some unresolved potential issues related to GSI-191 chemical effects as identified in NUREG/CR-6988. The United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, however, concluded that the implications of these issues are either not generically significant or are appropriately addressed, although several issues associated with downstream in-vessel effects remain.
