Computational technique, based on the minimization of the crystal energy with respect to atomic coordinates, are shown to reproduce successfully complex crystal structure, in this case, strontium hexaaluminate magnetoplumbite, SrAl/sub 12/O/sub 19/. The experimental crystal structure and symmetry of the complex material is well reproduced with our potential models and some crystal physical properties are calculated.

In the trend of world wide environment preservation, researchers tried to find new environment friendly propellant instead of highly toxic propellant, Hydrazine. Among the candidates, ionic liquid propellants have lower toxicity, higher density, and higher specific impulse than Hydrazine. These ionic liquid propellants have high combustion chamber temperature, so catalyst supports such as gamma alumina cannot withstand in that temperature. Therefore, a catalyst that showed stable characteristic in high temperature is needed. Barium dopped alumina can be changed to Hexaaluminate in high temperature, and its characteristic in high temperature is superior than gamma alumina. Barium dopped Alumina is wet impregnated with Platinum and heated up to $1300^{\circ}C$ and $1400^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. Those catalysts were examined by XRD, SEM, EDS, BET, and Drop test.

Mn substituted La, Sr or Ba-hexaaluminate were prepared by $(NH_4)_2CO_3$ co-precipitate method and calcined at $1,200^{\circ}C$ for 5 h. Catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction and $N_2$ physisorption and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Compared to $SrMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ and $BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$, $LaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ in which La located at mirror plane showed better crystallinity and high surface area, 13 $m^2/g$. $LaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ revealed well developed plate-like structure which is characteristic structure of hexaaluminate. The catalytic activity of methane combustion increased in the following order: $LaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ > $SrMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ > $BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ and was dependent on surface area of catalysts. 60 wt% $CeO_2/LaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ calcined at $700^{\circ}C$ showed enhanced methane activity and methane was oxidized completely at low temperature ($700^{\circ}C$). It was confirmed that addition of ceria seems to be effective for the low and middle temperature combustion of methane. But, after calcination at high temperature of $1,200^{\circ}C$, it lost the promoting effect of ceria due to increase of ceria particle size and it had a limit to applying to the high temperature catalytic combustion.

본 연구에서는 PDP용 녹색 형광체의 대안인 $Ba_{1.3}$A $l_{12}$ $O_{19}$:$Mn^{2+}$ 분말을 초음파 분무 열분해법으로 합성하였으며 활성제인 $Mn^{2+}$의 첨가량과 모체를 구성하는 바륨 및 알루미늄의 전구체 물질들의 조합을 변화시킴으로써 형광체 분말의 형태 및 발광특성을 조절하였다. 최적의 발광 휘도를 나타내는 $Mn^{2+}$의 농도는 0.25몰을 첨가하였을 때이며 녹색 발광 영역인 517nm에서 최대 발광 효율을 나타내었다. 바륨의 전구체 물질로는 초산염, 질산염, 염화물 및 수산화물을 사용하였으며 알루미늄 전구체 물질로는 질산염 및 염화물을 사용하였다. 전구체는 합성된 분말의 형상에 영향을 미치는데 구형을 유지하거나 혹은 뭉치거나 구형이 깨지는 등 전구체 조합에 따라 얻어지는 분말의 형태가 달라졌다. 합성된 형광체 분말들은 일반적인 고상 반응의 온도보다 낮은 열처리 온도인 140$0^{\circ}C$, 5시간 유지에서는 좋은 VUV 발광 특성을 가졌다. 또한 전구체의 조합은 형광체 발광 효율에도 영향을 미치는데 바륨과 알루미늄은 염화물을, 망간은 질산염을 사용하였을 때 가장 좋은 발광 휘도를 나타내었다.다.다.다.

$BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ was prepared by urea-induced homogeneous precipitation and characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. At increased precipitant concentrations, AlOOH replaced $Al(OH)_3$ as an Al precursor. $BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ exhibited enhanced catalytic combustion performance and inhibited CO generation. Catalytic performance was also enhanced by the presence of $BaAl_2O_4$ and $BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$. Compared to $BaAl_2O_4$, $BaMnAl_{11}O_{19}$ exhibited superior catalytic combustion activity.

This paper reports the preliminary firing test performed with an ADN-based monopropellant using a 5 N scale thruster. ADN-based propellant and catalyst was fabricated and catalytic combustion of propellant was characterized by DSC-TG analysis. Although an explosion in the catalyst bed was occurred, high temperature in the catalyst bed obtained and demonstrated catalytic combustion of the propellant. Preliminary test results motivates the research for catalysts with better thermal stability.
