In this study, in order to increase piezoelectric properties of the low temperature sintering ceramics for multilayer piezoelectric transformer, PCW-PMN-PZT ceramics added with $Li_2CO_3$, $Bi_2O_3$ and CuO as sintering aids were manufactured according to the amount of $MnO_2$ addition, and their microstructural, dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated. When the sintering aids was added, specimens could be sintered at $950^{\circ}C$. However, sintering aids added specimens showed lower piezoelectric properties than those of non-added specimens. $0.1wt%MnO_2$ added specimen at $950^{\circ}C$ showed ${\varepsilon}_r$, of 1503, $k_p$ of 0.57 and $Q_m$ of 1502 were shown, respectively, and showed optimum properties for multilayer piezoelectric transformer.

고주파 저손실 재질로 사용되고 있는 Mn-Zn 페라이트의 제조공정 중 소결조건과 Ta2O5첨가가 Mn-Zn 페라이트의전력손실에 미치는 영향에 대해서 연구하였다. 등조성선을 따라 냉각하기 위하여 컴퓨터를 사용해서 정확하게 산소분압을 조절하였으며 적절한 등조성선을 선택함으로써 보다 좋은 손실특성을 얻을 수 있었다. CaO-SiO2 첨가계에 Ta2O5를 0ppm에서 400ppm으로 변화시켜 가며 첨가하였으며, Ta2O5 가 400ppm 첨가되었을 경우 균일한 grain 성장과 더불어 낮은 전력손실을 나타내었다. 온도에 상응하는 상평형 산소분압을 정확히 맞춰 냉각할 경우 전력손실 최소값이 질소 분위기에서 냉각시킨 시편보다 높은 온도쪽으로 이동됨도 확인할 수 있었다.

TiO$_2$의 첨가가 Mn-Zn ferrites의 전자기적 물성에 미치는 효과에 대해 연구하였다. TiO$_2$의 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 밀도와 전기비저항이 증가된 반면 초기투자율은 감소하였다. TiO$_2$의 첨가에 따라 Fe$^{2+}$ ion의 증가에 기인하여 전력손실의 최소 값을 나타내는 온도가 저온으로 이동하였다. TiO$_2$를 0.12wt% 첨가한 시편의 경우, 100 kHz, 200 mT, 8$0^{\circ}C$ 측정 조건에서는 소결온도가 증가함에 따라 전력손실이 감소하였으며 125$0^{\circ}C$ 소결한 시편이 340 mW/㎤으로 가장 낮은 값을 보였다. 500 kHz, 50 mT, 8$0^{\circ}C$의 측정 조건에서는 소결 온도가 감소함에 따라 전력손실이 감소하였으며 115$0^{\circ}C$ 소결한 시편이 105 mW/㎤으로 가장 낮은 전력손실 값이 관찰되었다.

Among dusts which were generated in AOD process producing a medium-low carbon ferromanganese, the dust collected in bag filter contained manganese about 63% and its phase was $Mn_3$$O_4$. the maximum extraction of Mn by nitric acid is about 67% because of remaining amorphous $MnO_2$. Therefore this research investigated reducibility of the activated charcoal in Mn extraction from the dust. Addition of charcoal over 10% of pulp density made possible Mn extraction of 90% at $70^{\circ}C$, 0.5N $HNO_3$. To convert $Mn_3$$O_4$ to MnO by reducing roasting, the minimum mixture ratio of activated charcoal was 5% in $750^{\circ}C$, 1 hour. Extraction of Mn from the reduced dust was over 99% with nitric acid at $25^{\circ}C$, 6N $HNO_3$, pulp density 150 g/l§.

The objective of this study was to assess the catalytic activities of manganese oxide (MnO, $MnO_2$, $Mn_2O_3$, and $Mn_3O_4$) catalysts for odors (acetaldehyde and propionaldehyde) removal. We used a fixed bed reactor as the experimental apparatus and the catalytic performance were carried out over the temperature range of $200{\sim}470^{\circ}C$. The properties and performance of catalysts were characterized by the X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Brunauer Emmett Teller (BET). The catalytic activities of manganese oxide catalysts for acetaldehyde combustion were in the order of MnO < $MnO_2$ < $Mn_2O_3$ < $Mn_3O_4$, and it is similar to that of propionaldehyde combustion. We also confirmed that the reactions have well followed the kinetic model of Power-Rate Law and the reaction order (n) is 1 for both of the acetaldehyde and propionaldehyde combustion. In addition, the reaction activation energy of acetaldehyde and propionaldehyde combustion over $Mn_3O_4$ were found to be $72.42\;kJmol^{-1}$ for 487~503 K and $51.14\;kJmol^{-1}$ for 473~533 K, respectively.

The effect of the addition of Cu on the catalytic activity of the $Mn/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ catalyst for the low-temperature SCR reaction of NO was investigated. Three different amounts of Cu, 5, 10, and 15 wt%, were impregnated on the $Mn/CeO_2-ZrO_2$ catalyst. The characteristics of the synthesized catalysts were examined by BET, XRD, XPS, and $H_2-TPR$ analyses. The de-NOx efficiency of the Cu-added catalysts increased with the amount of Cu. When 15 wt% Cu was impregnated, the deNOx efficiency was the highest, reaching as high as 99%. The increased deNOx efficiency is attributed to the enhanced reducing power stemming from the interaction between Mn and Cu on the catalyst surface.

In order to investigate the effect of Mn on the dielectric and piezoelectric properties of PMN-PT [$Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-PbTiO_3$], four different types of 71PMN-29PT samples were prepared using the solid-state single crystal growth (SSCG) method: (1) Undoped single crystals, (2) undoped polycrystalline ceramics, (3) Mn-doped single crystals, and (4) Mn-doped polycrystalline ceramics. In the case of single crystals, the addition of 0.5 mol% Mn to PMN-PT decreased the dielectric constant ($K_3{^T}$), piezoelectric charge constant ($d_{33}$), and dielectric loss (tan ${\delta}$) by about 50%, but increased the coercive electric field ($E_C$) by 50% and the electromechanical quality factor ($Q_m$) by 500%, respectively. The addition of Mn to PMN-PT induced an internal bias electric field ($E_I$) and thus specimens changed from piezoelectrically soft-type to piezoelectrically hard-type. This Mn effect was more significant in single crystals than in ceramics. These results demonstrate that Mn-doped 71PMN-29PT single crystals, because they are piezoelectrically hard and simultaneously have high piezoelectric and electromechanical properties, have great potential for application in fields of SONAR transducers, high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), and ultrasonic motors.

In this study, the application of recovered metals from spent batteries by extraction was investigated for ozone decomposition as a catalyst. Among the recovered metals, Mn contents was the most important factor for ozone decomposition. It was also found that the deactivation rate of the catalyst was dependent on the Zn contents, while K contents and activities were not perfectly correlated for ozone decomposition. In addition, the catalytic activity the $TiO_2$ added catalyst was decreased, due to the reduction of Mn contents. The structural characteristics of maganase oxide was not associated with the catalytic activity for ozone decomposition.

The effect of aliovalent dopants, $ Nb_2O_5$ and MnO, on the phase stability of 12 mol% ceria partially-stabilized zirconia (Ce-TZP) polycrystals was studied. Both dopants (MnO and $ Nb_2O_5$) significantly increased the stability of the tetragonal zirconia phase (Mb temperature lower than liquid nitrogen temperature). The enhancement of the stability of the tetragonal phase in Ce-TZP doped with 1 mol% of Mno(Ce-TZP/MnO) andCe-TZP doped with 1 mol% of $ Nb_2O_5$(Ce-TZP/$ Nb_2O_5$) were explained by the significant reduction of the driving force, -${\Delta}$Gchem, for the tetragonal-to-mono-clinic phase transformation caused by the addition of MnO and $ Nb_2O_5$. The enhanced stability of the tetragonal phase in the Ce-TZP and Al2O3 composite (Ce-TZP/$Al_2O_3$) is believed to be caused by smaller grain size, moderate reduction in the chemical driving force and increase in the strain energy barrier to the transformation. Mechanical properties of the Ce-TZP and the Ce-TZP/$Al_2O_3$ with (i) the same grain size and (ii) the same Mb temperature were examined by measuring stress-strain behavior in 3 point bending. The Ce-TZP/$Al_2O_3$ composite doped with 1.3w% MnO (Ce-TZP/$Al_2O_3$/MnO), which had the same grain size as the Ce-TZP and De-TZP/$Al_2O_3$ showed more transformation plasticity than either the Ce-TZP or the Ce-TZP/$Al_2O_3$ composite. The Ce-TZP wihch had the same Mb temperature as that of the Ce-TZP/$Al_2O_3$/MnO did not show any transformation plasticity.
