The co-precipitation process plays a key role in the decontamination of radionuclides from low and intermediate levels of liquid waste. For that reason, the removal of Cs ions from waste solution by the co-precipitation method was carried out. A simulated liquid waste (¹³³Cs) was prepared from a 0.1 M CsCl solution, while wastewater generated by washing steel ash served as a representative of radioactive cesium solution (¹³⁷Cs). By co-precipitation, potassium ferrocyanide was applied for the adsorption of Cs ions, while nickel nitrate and iron sulfate were selected for supporting the precipitation. The amount of residual Cs ions in the CsCl solution after precipitation and filtration was determined by ICP-OES, while the radioactivity of ¹³⁷Cs was measured using a gamma-ray spectrometer. After cesium removal, the amount of cesium appearing in both XRD and SEM-EDS was analyzed. The removal efficiency of ¹³³Cs was 60.21% and 51.86% for nickel nitrate and iron sulfate, respectively. For the ash-washing solution, the removal efficiency of ¹³⁷Cs was revealed to be more than 99.91% by both chemical agents. This implied that the co-precipitation process is an excellent strategy for the effective removal of radioactive cesium in waste solution treatment.

본 연구에서는 폐건전지에 함유되어 있는 이산화망간을 재활용하는 방안을 검토하고자 니켈함유 폐수의 흡착 처리시 흡착제로서 이산화망간을 사용하여 그 특성을 조사하였다. 수중에서 니켈 이온의 거동을 MINTEQ프로그램을 이용하여 조사하고, 흡착질의 초기농도, 반응온도, 그리고 흡착제의 양 및 pH변화에 따른 흡착 특성의 변화양상을 검토하였다. 흡착실험의 결과로부터 흡착질인 $Ni^{2+}$의 초기농도가 증가할수록 흡착량이 감소함을 알 수 있었고, 온도에 따른 $Ni^{2+}$의 흡착특성을 열역학적으로 고찰하였다. 또한 흡착제인 이산화망간의 양이 증가함에 따라 흡착량이 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, pH가 증가함에 따라 평형흡착량은 증가하는 것으로 조사되었다.

A spectrophotometric and first derivative spectrophotometric method was developed in aquatic Tween 80 micellar solutions for selective determination of nickel without using any pre-separation step. 1-(2-Pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN), as a sensitive chromogenic complexing agent formed a red-colored Ni(II)-PAN complex in Tween 80 media with satisfactory solubility and stability. Conditions such as pH, PAN concentration, type and concentration of micellizing agent were optimized. Molar absorptivity of Ni-PAN complex was found $4.62\;{\times}\;10^4L\;cm^{?1}\;mol^{?1}$ at 569 nm, under the optimum condition. Calibration graphs were derived by zero, first and second derivative spectrophotometry at maximum wavelengths of 569, 578 and 571 nm with linear ranges of 30-1800, 20-2500 and 30-2000 ng $mL^{?1}$ , respectively. Precision as standard deviation as well as accuracy as recovery percent were in the range of 1-20 ng $mL^{?1}$, and 93.3-103.3%, respectively, for the entire of the linear ranges. Spectrophotometric detection limit was 3 ng $mL^{?1}$ and effects of diverse ions on the first derivative determination of nickel were studied to investigate selectivity of the method. Interferences of cobalt and copper on the nickel determination were prevented using o-phenanthroline as masking agent. The recommended procedures were applied to the various synthetic and stainless steel alloys, tea leaves and human hair, with satisfactory results.

Solutions of $Ni^{2+}$ and $Cd^{2+}$ were mixed with the solutions of various dibasic organic acids in the presence of cation exchange resin at room temperature. The distribution ratios of the metal ions between resin and solution were measured, using radioactive metal ions as tracer. From the observed variation of the distribution ratios with acid anion concentrations, it was concluded that $Ni^{2+}$ and $Cd^{2+}$ formed one-to-one complexes with succinate, malonate, o-phthalate and tartarate ions in aqueous, 20 % ethanol-water and 20 % acetone-water solutions. The results of the present study indicated that the relative stabilities of the complexes in solution increased generally in the order : $Ni^{2+}$ < $Cd^{2+}$ complexes. Succinate < malonate < o-phthalate < tartarate complexes. Aqueous < mixed solvent systems.

Although many studies on the cytotoxicity of the dental cast base metal alloys and their components have been carried out, the results are rather conflicting because of the different type of cells used and the various experimental procedures taken. Recently a number of scientists have claimed that it would be preferable to focus on the use of cells from relevant specific location of the human bodies. Consequently, the primary cultured oral keratinocyte derived from oral mucous along with nickel chloride and several of widely used dental cast base metal alloys(two Ni-Cr alloys and one Co-Cr alloy)in domestic were selected for this study, from which 1) The amounts of released metal ions were determined using atomic absorption spectrometry, 2) The cytotoxicity of nickel chloride and dental cast base metal alloys was evaluated via MTT assay, and finally, 3) The amounts of released metal ions and the cytotoxicity of nickel chloride were correlated with the cytotoxicity of dental cast base metal alloys And, the results were summarized as follows; 1. Nickel ion from Ni-Cr alloys and Cobalt ion from Co-Cr alloys resulted in maximum releasing rate during first 2h hours, followed by a decrease in releasing rate with time. Chromium ion were found to be minimal in all alloys. 2. In cytotoxic test. with $40{\mu}M,\;80{\mu}M$ of nickel chloride, there were observed an increase in the relative cell number compared to control samples after 24 hours. With $160{\mu}M$, there was found to be no difference in the relative cell number with control, except that 48 hour showed a increase in relative cell number. With $320{\mu}M$, the relative cell number remained constant and decreased after 48 hours, and with $640{\mu}M$, a continuing decrease in relative cell number was observed throughout test period. 3 The sensitivity of primary cultured oral epithelium to nickel was lower compared to the cells used in other studies. 4. CB-80 Soft and Regalloy showed no cytotoxicity to primary cultured oral epithelium and New crown resulted in a slight cytotoxicity. In conclusion, it was shown that the primary cultured oral keratinocytes could be applied successfully as testing cells in cytotoxicity test. Futhermore, the dental cast base metal alloys used in this study were found to be biocompatible.

The pressure-jump relaxation method has been used to determine the rate constants for the formation and dissociation of maganese(Ⅱ), cobalt(Ⅱ), and nickel(Ⅱ) with some dicarboxylates in aqueous solution at zero ionic strength. The carboxylate ligands used are 3-nitrophthalate, 4-nitrophthalate, and phenylmalonate. The activation parameters have alse been obtained from the temperature dependence of the rate constants. A dissociative interchange mechanism with a chelate ring closure step as rate determining is employed to interpret the kinetic data of manganese(Ⅱ) and cobalt(Ⅱ) complexes. The rates of formation of nickel(Ⅱ) complexes are controlled by both the solvent exchange step and the chelate ring closure step.

A new method for the simultaneous determination of seven transition metal ions in water and food by microcolumn high-performance liquid chromatography has been developed. The lead, cadmium, mercury, nickel, cobalt, silver and tin ions were pre-column derivatized with tetra-(4-aminophenyl)-porphyrin ($T_4$-APP) to form the colored chelates which were then enriched by solid phase extraction with $C_{18}$ cartridge. The enrichment factor of 50 was achieved by eluted the retained chelates from the cartridge with tetrahydrofuran (THF). The chelates were separated on a ZORBAX Stable Bound microcolumn ($2.0{\times}50\;mm,\;1.8\;{\mu}m$)with methanol-tetrahydrofuran (95 : 5, v/v, containing 0.05 mol/L pyrrolidine-acetic acid buffer salt, pH = 10.0) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min and detected with a photodiode array detector from 350-600 nm. The seven chelates were separated completely within 2.0 min. The detection limits of lead, cadmium, mercury, nickel, cobalt, silver and tin are 4 ng/L, 3 ng/L, 6 ng/L, 5 ng/L, 5 ng/L, 6 ng/L, 4 ng/L respectively in the original samples. This method was applied to the determination of the seven transition metal in water and food samples with good results.

기공 경사화된 마이크론 단위의 구조 틀 및 나노 수지상 구조 벽을 가지는 니켈-구리 거품 전극을 전기화학적인 방법으로 합성하였다. 전해 도금 시 순수한 니켈은 치밀한 층으로 성장하는 양상을 보였으나, 구리와 함께 도금시키는 경우 그 성장 양상이 순수한 니켈과는 매우 다르게 관찰되었다. 특히, 첨가제로써 염소 이온의 농도가 증가함에 따라 니켈-구리 도금 층의 수지상 성장이 뚜렷해지는 모습을 보였다. 또한, 기재와 먼 부분일수록 도금 층 내 구리 대비 니켈의 상대적인 양이 감소하였으며, 염소 이온 농도가 높아짐에 따라 전 도금 층에 걸쳐 니켈의 양이 증가하였다. 수지상 구조 벽의 가지 내부 조성을 분석한 결과, 중심부로 갈수록 구리 함량이 점차 높아지는 조성 구배를 확인하였으며, 적절한 열처리를 통해 상호 확산을 유도하여 균일한 조성의 니켈-구리 합금을 얻어낼 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 제작된 재료는 기능성 전기 화학 장치용 고성능 전극에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

황산용액 중에 존재하는 니켈을 회수하기 위해 이온교환수지법을 이용한 기초연구를 수행하였다. 제조된 모의 니켈(Ni)용액에 독일 Lanxess사(社)의 Lewatit Monoplus TP 220를 이용하여 회분식 실험을 하였다. 흡착반응에 영향을 미치는 온도, 교반속도, 반응시간, pH, 이온교환수지 양, 니켈이온농도 등에 대해 고찰하였다. 초기 pH(2.0~5.0)와 교반속도는 니켈의 흡착에 거의 영향을 미치지 않았으며, 평형에 도달하기 위하여 72시간의 시간이 필요했다. 평형실험결과 Freundlich 흡착등온식에 적합하였고, 흡착반응속도는 유사 2차 반응 모델(pseudo-second order)로 잘 모사되었다. 한편 니켈을 함유한 실제 도금세정폐액의 흡착 실험을 행하여 모의용액의 흡착거동과 비교하였고, 흡착된 니켈은 황산 농도가 높아짐에 따라 수지로부터 효과적으로 용리되었다.

니켈에 양극산화법을 적용하여 기존의 선행연구에서 보고되었던 nm 단위의 두께를 극복하고 최대 2.3 ${\mu}m$ 두께의 산화니켈 박막을 제조하였다. 전해질은 에틸렌글리콜을 용매로 사용하였으며 $F^-$ 이온을 공급하기 위해 $NH_4F$를 첨가하였다. 전압을 40, 60, 80 V로 변화시키며 최대 12시간까지 양극산화반응을 진행하였으며 시간과 전압을 증가시킴에 따라 산화니켈 박막의 두께도 증가하였다. 그러나 80 V 전압에서는 급격한 산화 작용에 따른 니켈의 파괴가 나타났다. XRD 분석 결과 양극산화에 의해 NiO가 생성되었음을 확인하였다.
