Rheological, colloidal and micromeritical properties were followed to investigate aging mechanisms of hydrous aluminum oxide suspension using Zeta-meter systems, BET adsorption apparatus, Master sizer and electronmicroscope. The results indicate that hydrous aluminum oxide suspension revealed plastic flow with thixotropy. The viscosity, thixotropy and yield value were increased with increasing concentration. During aging process, the viscosity and thixotropic index were increased by an addition of glycerin, however, sorbitol stabilized aging process of the suspension being accompanied with growth of particle size and reduction in specific surface area, pore area and pore volume, and consistency. Diminution of adsorptive power of the particles was also protected by addition of sorbitol to hydrous aluminum oxide suspension. From these results, one of aging mechanism of hydrous aluminum oxide suspension assumed growth and/or crystallization of colloidal particles in aqueous suspension.

High surface carbon aerogels with hierarchical and tunable pore structure were prepared using ionic liquid as carbon precursor via a simple salt templating method. The as-prepared carbon aerogels were characterized by nitrogen sorption measurement and scanning electron microscopy. Through instant visual observation experiments, it was found that salt eutectics not only serve as solvents, porogens, and templates, but also play an important role of foaming agents in the preparation of carbon aerogels. When the pyrolyzing temperature rises from 800 to $1000^{\circ}C$, the higher temperature deepens the carbonization reaction further to form a nanoporous interconnected fractal structure and increase the contribution of super-micropores and small mesopores and improve the specific surface area and pore volume, while having few effects on the macropores. As the mass ratio of ionic liquid to salt eutectics drops from 55% to 15%, that is, the content of salt eutectics increases, the salt eutectics gradually aggregate from ion pairs, to clusters with minimal free energy, and finally to a continuous salt phase, leading to the formation of micropores, uniform mesopores, and macropores, respectively; these processes cause BET specific surface area initially to increase but subsequently to decrease. With the mass ratio of ionic liquids to salts at 35% and carbonization temperature at $900^{\circ}C$, the specific surface area of the resultant carbon aerogels reached $2309m^2g^{-1}$. By controlling the carbonization temperature and mass ratio of the raw materials, the hierarchically porous architecture of carbon aerogels can be tuned; this advantage will promote their use in the fields of electrodes and adsorption.

This paper describes the adsorption/desorpton efficiency of a modified activated carbon by irradiated microwave to treat toluene. By employing microwave energy, the regeneration time was considerably shortened compared with conventional thermal heating regeneration. New adsorbent called ACB (Activated Carbon-Bentonite) was prepared from powder activated carbon with mixing bentonite as a binder. Specific surface area, average pore size and total pore volume of ACB were calculated from the nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherm. The surface of ACB was characterized with scanning electron microscope(SEM). The results showed that the specific surface area, total pore volume, average pore size of ABC was not influenced by regenerating cycle with microwave irradiation. Toluene was adsorbed onto ACB which desorbed by MW irradiation. Absorption capacity of ACB was 0.117 $g_{toluene}/g_{ACB}$. Desorption efficiency of toluene increased as higher microwave output was applied.

Short pitch fibers were prepared from petroleum based isotropic precursor pitch by melt-blown technology. The pitch fibers were stabilized in oxidizing condition, followed by steam activations at various conditions. The fiber surface and pore structures of the activated carbon fibers (ACFs) were respectively characterized by using SEM and applying BET theory from nitrogen adsorption at 77 K. The weight loss of the oxidized fiber was proportional to activation temperature and activation time, independently. The adsorption isotherms of the nitrogen on the ACFs were constructed and analyzed to be as Type I consisting of micropores mainly. The specific surface area of the ACFs proportionally increased with the weight loss at a given activation temperature. The specific surface area was ranged 850~1900 $m^2/g$ with pores of narrow distribution in sizes. The average pore size was ranged 5.8~14.1 ${\AA}$ with the larger value from the more severe activation condition.

In order to lower porosity of the porous silica, titanium alkoxide solution was filled in the pore of silica in the heating-vacuum condition. The specific surface area of modified samples was decreased effectively from 900 m$^2$/g to 100 m$^2$/g. (The aggregation phenomena in modified samples were improved fairly.) Samples were heated at 600 , and then the titanium alkoxide in the pore was decomposed completely to titanium oxide from TGA-DTA measurement. From SEM result, it was evident that titanium oxide did not coat the surface of the silica. The modified samples were analyzed using SEM, DTA-TGA, BET, and UV-visible spectrometer.

반도체 산업용 9N 이상의 초고순도 N₂, Ar 등 불활성 가스 제조를 위해 가스 정제공정에 사용되고 있는 Ni 촉매의 물성 평가 및 촉매적 특성을 확인하였다. 조성이 다른 원기둥 형태의 C1, 츄러스 형태의 C2의 두 가지 Ni 촉매에 대해 비교 평가를 진행하였다. Ni 촉매의 형상과 미세구조를 분석하기 위해 광학현미경과 FE-SEM을 이용하였으며, 조성 확인 및 물성을 분석하기 위해 EDS, XRD, 그리고 micro-Raman 분석을 이용하였다. 또한 Ni 촉매의 비표면적 및 촉매적 특성을 확인하기 위해 BET, Pulse Titration 분석을 진행하였다. 조성 분석결과, C1의 경우, 상대적으로 graphite가 불순물로 다량 포함되어 있는 것을 확인하였으며, C2는 C1에 비해 Ni의 함량이 높은 것을 확인하였다. 비표면적 분석 결과, C2의 비표면적이 C1보다 약 1.69배 정도 큰 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 촉매적 특성분석 결과, 상온에서 O₂와 CO 불순물 제거 정도가 C2가 우수함을 확인하였다. 따라서 반도체 산업용 초고순도 불활성 기체 제조를 위한 Ni 촉매로는 불순물이 적고, 비표면적이 크며, 상온에서 O₂와 CO 제거 성능이 우수한 C2가 적합함을 확인하였다.

Coal tar pitch was chemically modified with 10 wt% benzoquinone (BQ) to raise the softening point of isotropic pitch precursor and the precursor was melt-spun into pitch fibers, stabilized, carbonized and activated with steam at $900^{\circ}C$. The weight loss of carbon fiber-benzoquinone (CF-BQ) increased with the increase of activation time like other fibers, but was lower than those of Kureha fiber at the same activation time in spite of larger geometric surface area. Those adsorption isotherms fitted into 'Type I' according to Brunauer, Deming, Deming and Teller classification. However, there was very thin low-pressure hysteresis that lower closure points of the hysteresis are about 0.42-0.45. From the pore size distribution curves, there might be some micropores having narrow-necked bottle; a series of interconnected pore is more likely than discrete bottles. FT-IR studies showed that the functional groups such as carboxyl, quinone, and phenol were introduced to ACFs-BQ surface after steam activation. Methylene blue decolorization and iodine adsorption capacity of ACF-BQ increased linearly with the increase of specific surface area and was larger than that of ACF-Kureha at the same specific surface area.

활상탄소섬유는 입상 활성탄에 비해 빠른 흡 · 탈착 속도와 높은 흡착량을 갖기 때문에 흡착재, 촉매, 분자체와 같은 환경 신소재로서 큰 주목을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 안정화 PAN계 탄소섬유를 수증기와 CO2를 이용한 물리적 활성화에 의해 여러 등급의 활성탄소섬유를 제조하였고, 비표면적, 요오드 흡착량, 세공구조 등을 측정하였다. 수증기 활성화에서 77%의 burn-off에서 비표면적이 1019 m2/g을 나타내었고, 반면에 CO2 활성화에서는 52%의 burn-off에서 7168m2/g의 비표면적을 갖는 활성탄소섬유가 제조되었다 그러나, 비슷한 burn-off에서는 CO2로 활성화한 경우에서 세공용적이 0.37 cc/g이고, 요오드 흡착량이 1589 mg/g으로서 수증기 활성화보다 더 큰 세공용적과 요오드 흡착량을 나타내었다. 또한 제조된 활성탄소섬유의 질소 흡착등온선들은 Brunaner-Deming-Deming-Teller의 분류에 따르면 모두 type I으로 주로 미세공들로 이루어져 있음을 알 수가 있었다.

금속 질산염과 urea를 사용하여 연소합성법에 의해 LaCrO3 분말을 제조하고, 용액의 pH를 HNO3와 NH4OH로 조절한 후, 용매의 가열방법에 따른 연소 생성물인 LaCrO3의 형상을 고찰하였다. 연소생성물의 수율은 용액의 pH에 의해 크게 좌우되었다. 용액의 pH가 0.7~4 사이에서는 90% 이상의 수율이 얻어졌으나, 5 이상 또는 0.5 이하의 pH에서는 수율이 크게 감소하였다. 한편, 연소생성물의 형상은 용액의 pH에 무관하였고 용액의 가열방법에 좌우되었다. 용액을 저항가열법으로 가열하여 연소반응시킨 경우의 분말은 미세한 일차입자들이 2차원적으로 연결된 응집체를 형성하고 있었으나, 마이크로파를 인가하여 가열한 경우에는 용액의 pH에 관계없이 미세한 LaCrO3 분말이 얻어졌다. BET 분석 결과, 마이크로파 가열에 의해 얻어진 입자의 비표면적은 25~32m2/g으로 저항가열법으로 가열한 경우의 10-14m2/g에 비해 더 큰 값을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 마이크로파에 의한 연소반응물의 균일한 가열이 연소생성물의 2차원적인 강항 응집체 형성을 억제할 수 있음을 보여 주었다.
