Agglomerated and non-agglomerated SiO$_2$ particles are synthesized in a furnace by oxidation of TEOS vapor. These polydispersed particles are classified with DMA to extract particles. Then these particles are introduced into a thermal precipitator through the ESP(Electrostatic Precipitator) to investigate the themophoretic particle deposition using CNCs(Condensation Nuclei Counter). The efficiency of themophoretic particle deposition according to agglomerated and non-agglomerated particles in the thermal precipitator has been studied as a function of particle size and TEOS mole concentration using monodisperse particles classified by DMA. The results show that the particle deposition efficiency decreases as TEOS mole concentration increases and particle size increases. Thereffre, it is concluded that the thermophoretic deposition efficiency is dependent of the particle morphology.

Nanocrystalline ceria particles were prepared by using the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis method. The prepared ceria particles were found to be spherical and non-agglomerated by the SEM and TEM analyses. It was found that carrier gas influences the size and morphology. It was found that the air stream of carrier gas results in porous agglomerated structure of ceria abrasives, whereas solid nano-sphere can be obtained in a more oxidizing atmosphere.

The influence of powdered and colloidal nano-silica (NS) on the mechanical properties of cement mortar has been investigated. Powdered-NS (~40 nm) was synthesized by employing the sol-gel method and compared with commercially available colloidal NS (~20 nm). SEM and XRD studies revealed that the powdered-NS is non-agglomerated and amorphous, while colloidal-NS is agglomerated in nature. Further, these nanoparticles were incorporated into cement mortar for evaluating compressive strength, gel/space ratio, portlandite quantification, C-S-H quantification and chloride diffusion. Approximately, 27 and 37 % enhancement in compressive strength was observed using colloidal and powdered-NS, respectively, whereas the same was up to 19 % only when silica fume was used. Gel/space ratio was also determined on the basis of degree of hydration of cement mortar and it increases linearly with the compressive strength. Furthermore, DTG results revealed that lime consumption capacity of powdered-NS is significantly higher than colloidal-NS, which results in the formation of additional calcium-silicate-hydrate (C-S-H). Chloride penetration studies revealed that the powdered-NS significantly reduces the ingress of chloride ion as the microstructure is considerably improved by incorporating into cement mortar.

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.

Nano crystalline or non-crystalline particles have been widely used in various industrial area, such as ceramics, catalysis, electronics, metallurgy and optic device. In all applications, synthesizing the particles as small as possible and controlling the crystalline phase according to its purpose are necessary for the enhancement of processing performance. In some cases, non-agglomerated particles may be necessary for solving the packing problems. This motivates our attempt of controlling size, morphology, phase of nano titania and silica particles. If one can enhance sintering rate of small aggregates independently of collision rate, one may expect that original aggregates can be changed into volume equivalent spheres and thereby the decrease of collision frequency due to the change leads to much smaller rate of growth of the particles. This is the basic idea of our control strategy.

나노기술의 실제적인 응용을 위해 응집되지 않은 나노입자 상태를 얻는 것이 매우 중요하다. 나노입자를 사용하는 제품의 기능성을 향상시키기 위해, 그들의 합성 과정에서 입자 크기 분포의 더 정밀한 제어가 요구된다. 그러나 합성된 나노입자들은 물리적 혹은 화학적인 이유로 응집되기 쉬워 나노입자의 고유한 특성이 가려져 실제적인 응용에 있어서 문제를 일으킨다. 본 연구는 단분산된 나노입자만을 분리하기 위하여 초음파 무화 효과에 의한 무화입자를 분리장으로 사용한 나노입자 분리방법을 제안하였다. 0.002 wt. %의 농도를 갖는 $TiO_2$ 나노입자 현탁액을 무화시켜 분리포집된 현탁액에 포합된 나노입자들의 입도분포를 측정하였다. 그 결과들로부터 제안된 방법을 이용하여 단분산 입자의 분리 포집이 가능함을 확인 할 수 있다.

구리입자를 코딩한 분말 합성은 Kelex 100 solvent extraction으로부터 silica powder에 수소압력 stripping copper에 의하여 생성하였다. Solvent extraction의 범위내인 일정한 조건에서 loading level과 stripping rate등을 재생하였으며 stripping copper kinetics는 divalent상태에서 metallic 상태로 감소하면서 silica 입자에 침적하였다. Copper들은 seed 입자에 heterogeneous 핵을 형성하면서 이들은 agglomeration 상태로 생성되었고 불균일한 분말로 형성하였다.

Continuous synthesis process for monodispersed zirconia powders with ultrasonic wave mixing was developed. Reactant solutions were flowed through a T-tube with small diameter and then mixed in a microscale with ultrasonification. Reaction and aging were followed during the mixed solution of reactants is in plug flowing through a narrow long teflon tubing. Zr(n-OC4H9)4 in ethanol and H2O in ethanol were used as reactants. From this process monodispersed, spherical, non-agglomerated, singlet hydrated zirconia powders with 0.6 $\mu\textrm{m}$ average size were obtained. Geometrical standard deviation of the particle size distribution was less than 1.2 with ultrasonic mixing, and the geometrical standard deviation was not affected by the flow rate of the reactants.

Two-component ceramic (alumina-zirconia) composites were fabricated by a soft-solution process in which polyethylene glycol (PEG) was used as a polymeric carrier. Metal salts and PEG were dissolved in ethyl alcohol without any precipitation in 1:1 volume ratio of alumina and zirconia. In the non-aqueous system, the flammable solvent made explosive, exothermic reaction during drying process. The reaction resulted in formation of volume expanded, porous precursor powders by a vigorous decomposition of organic components in the precursor sol. The PEG content affected the grain size of sintered composites as well as the morphology of precursor powders. The difference of microstructure in sintered composite was attribute to the solubility and homogeneity of metal cations in precursor sol. At the optimum amount of the PEG polymer, the metal ions were dispersed effectively in solution and a homogeneous polymeric network was formed. It made less agglomerated particles in the precursor sol and affected on uniform grain size in sintered composite.

Pure and fine, two-component titanate powders (barium titanate, calcium titanate etc.) were synthesized by an ethylene glycol method. Titanium isopropoxide and other metal ionic salts were dissolved in liquid-type ethylene glycol without any precipitation. In non-aqueous system, the amount of ethylene glycol affected the solubility and homogeneity of metal cation sources in the solution. At the optimum amount of the polymer, the metal ions were dispersed effectively in solution and a homogeneous polymeric network was formed. Most of the synthesized powders had sub-micron or nano-size primary particles after calcination and the agglomerated calcined powders were easily ground by ball milling process. All synthesized titanate powders had stable crystallization behavior at low temperature and high specific surface area after ball milling. The crystallization behavior and the microstructures of the calcined powders were affected on the ethylene glycol content.
