Al-Cu alloy nano powders have been produced by the electrical explosion of Cu-plated Al wire. The porous nano particles were prepared by leaching for Al-Cu alloy nano powders in 40wt% NaOH aqueous solution. The surface area of leached powder for 5 hours was 4 times larger than that of original alloy nano powder. It is demonstrated that porous nano particles could be obtained by selective leaching of alloy nano powder. It is expected that porous Cu nano powders can be applied for catalyst of SRM (steam reforming methanol).

Graphene, a two dimensional plane structure of $sp^2$ bonding, has been promised for a new material in many scientific fields such as physics, chemistry, and so on due to the unique properties. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method using transitional metals as a catalyst can synthesize large scale graphene with high quality and transfer on other substrates. However, it is difficult to control the number of graphene layers. Therefore, it is important to manipulate the number of graphene layers. In this work, homogeneous solid solution of Cu and Ni was used to control the number of graphene layers. Each films with different thickness ratio of Cu and Ni were deposited on $SiO_2/Si$ substrate. After annealing, it was confirmed that the thickness ratio accords with the composition ratio by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The synthesized graphene from CVD was analyzed via raman spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, and 4-point probe to evaluate the properties. Therefore, the number of graphene layers at the same growth condition was controlled, and the correlation between mole fraction of Ni and the number of graphene layers was investigated.

Nano-MgO와 메조페이스 피치로부터 복합 탄소섬유를 만들고 MgO를 제거함으로써 직접 메탄올 연료전지용 촉매 담지체로서의 다공성 탄소섬유를 제조하였다. 이 다공성 탄소섬유의 비표면적은 $8{\sim}58m^2/g$ 이고, 표면기공구조는 마이크로기공이 거의 없이 MgO 입자크기 유래의 메조기공(10~15 nm)으로 구성된 것이 특징이며, MgO 혼입량(1~10 wt%)에 따라 조절할 수 있었다. 본 다공성 탄소섬유를 담지체로 이용하여 함침법으로 60 wt% Pt-Ru 촉매를 담지하였으며, 제조된 Pt-Ru 촉매의 메탄올 산화 특성 및 단위전지 성능 측정 결과 상용촉매에 비하여 5~10% 이상 향상된 값을 나타내었다

각종 전자 방출원 및 디스플레이 응용분야에서 우수한 가능성을 보이고 있는 이중벽 탄소나노튜브를 Tetra Hydro Furan(THF) 열분해 방법으로 대량합성 하였다. 본 연구에서는 Fe-Mo 금속이 MgO 담지체에 담지된 촉매에 THF 를 공급하여 이중벽 탄소나노튜브를 합성하였다. 이 합성된 이중벽 탄소나노튜브는 비정질 탄소파티클이 없는 고순도로 합성되었으며, 탄소나노튜브 다발의 직경은 12 - 20 nm 로 균일하게 분포하였고, 성장 길이는 수십 마이크로미터 였다. TEM 분석 결과 이중벽 탄소나노튜브 5 - 10 가닥이 뭉쳐있는 다발 형태로 존재하였고, 합성된 이중벽 탄소나노튜브의 Raman spectrum 분석 결과 내부 직경이 0.9 - 1.5 nm, 외부 직경이 1.6 - 2.2 nm 의 직경 분포를 갖는 이중벽 구조의 탄소나노튜브가 합성되었음을 확인 할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 사용된 THF 가 이중벽 탄소나노튜브를 합성하는데 적합한 탄소공급원임을 제시한다.

The copper oxide nano powders were synthesized by levitational gas condensation (LGC) method, and were applied to catalyst to fabricate 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-one. Processes of adsorption of Biginelli reaction reagents on the copper nanooxide surface $Cu_2O{\circ}CuO$ were studied by IR-spectroscopy. It was shown that benzaldehyde coordination, acetoacetic ether on the oxide surface is carried out with participation of carbonyl fragments, urea by N-H bonds which affects positively on the reagents reactivity.

Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs) have been of great interest particularly in the automobile industries because of their high energy density and low pollutant emission. However, some of the issues such as, the necessarily high contents of Pt catalysts and their slow kinetics of cathode oxygen reduction reaction remain as obstacles in the commercialization of the PEMFC. In this presentation, after brief explanation on basic principles of PEMFC and its application to FC vehicles, recent researches to improve the activity and durability of Pt-based nano catalysts toward oxygen reduction will be introduced. It covers size and shape control of Pt nano particle, binary and ternary Pt-M alloys, novel core-shell nano structures of Pt, and a little bit about non-Pt catalysts. Strategies and methodologies for design and synthesis of novel catalysts will also be included.

Pt has been widely used as catalyst for fuel cell and exhausted gas clean systems due to its high catalytic activity. Recently, there have been researches on fabricating composite materials of Pt as a method of reducing the amount of Pt due to its high price. One of the approaches for saving Pt used as catalyst is a core shell structure consisting of Pt layer on the core of the non-noble metal. In this study, the synthesis of Pt shell was conducted on the surface of $TiO_2$ particle, a non-noble material, by applying ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. Anatase $TiO_2$ particles with the average size of 20~30 nm were immersed in the ethanol dissolved with Pt precursor of $H_2PtCl_6{\cdot}6H_2O$ and exposed to UV irradiation with the wavelength of 365 nm. It was confirmed that Pt nano-particles were formed on the surface of $TiO_2$ particles by photochemical reduction of Pt ion from the solution. The morphology of the synthesized Pt@$TiO_2$ nano-composite was examined by TEM (Transmission Electron Microscopy).

상온경화 주형용으로 사용되는 상업적 폴리우레탄 수지에 평균 입자크기가 ${\mu}m$ 및 nm 크기의 서로 다른 무기물 파우더를 충전하여 만든 폴리우레탄 복합수지의 중합반응 및 분해반응 특성을 살펴보고 기계적물성의 변화를 연구하였다. 중합반응의 경우, 평균입자크기가 약 $0.5{\mu}m$로서 상대적으로 입경이 큰 Ce500 무기분말을 사용한 충전하는 경우에는 충전량이 많아질수록 최고 반응 속도점의 반응온도는 상대적으로 낮아지는 것으로 나타나는 반면, 나노두께크기의 MMT 충전제를 사용하는 경우에는 충전 함량에는 큰 차이가 없이 최고반응온도가 높아지면서 반응속도도 빨라지는 거동을 보였다. 또한 TGA 열중량 시험결과에 대하여 Kissinger method를 이용하여 분석한 결과로서 Ce500-복합체의 경우에는 분해반응의 활성화 에너지가 139.34 kJ/mol이었고 MMT-복합체의 경우에는 91.12 kJ/mol로 나타났으며 이로부터 MMT 분말의 분해촉매 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 한편, 인장강도는 5phr 정도의 소량 충전함량에서는 별 변화를 보이지 않으나 그 이상의 함량에서는 MMT가 충전된 샘플의 강도 증가 현상이 뚜렷이 나타났다.

Silver as a metal catalyst has been used to remove odorous compounds. In this study, silver particles in nano sizes ($5{\sim}30nm$) were prepared on the surface of $NaHCO_3$, the supporting material, using a sputtering method. The silver nano-particles were dispersed by dissolving $Ag-NaHCO_3$ into water, and the dispersed silver nano-particles in the aqueous phase was applied to remove inorganic odor compounds, $NH_3$ and ${H_2}O$, in a scrubbing reactor. Since ammonia has high solubility, it was removed from the gas phase even by spraying water in the scrubber. However, the concentration of nitrate (${NO_3}^-$) ion increased only in the silver nano-particle solution, implying that the silver nano-particles oxidized ammonia. Hydrogen sulfide in the gas phase was rapidly removed by the silver nano-particles, and the concentration of sulfate (${SO_4}^{2-}$) ion increased with time due to the oxidation reaction by silver. As a result, the silver nano-particles in the aqueous solution can be successfully applied to remove odorous compounds without adding additional energy sources and producing any harmful byproducts.
