With high integration of electronic components, power inductors are also miniaturized. Recently, thick film processes for small size power inductors were developed and commercialized. However, the thick film process to prepare soft magnetic green sheets was not reported enough. In this study, we used Fe-Si magnetic and CIP (carbonyl iron powders) as starting materials to lead to a bimodal particle size distribution in the sheet. We proposed a newly developed 'Modified slurry preparation process' to get well dispersed condition even at high solid contents. Using the new process, it was possible to prepare a well dispersed slurry over 70 vol% of solid. BYK-103 was better than BYK-111 as dispersant in this slurry and the optimum amount was 0.6 wt%. The optimized slurry was formed into a sheet by tape casting process and then the sheet was laminated. We conformed that small size powder, large size powder, and epoxy resin were well dispersed in the green sheet.

Solution plasma is a unique method which provides a direct discharge in solutions. It is one of the promising techniques for various applications including the synthesis of metallic/non-metallic nanomaterials, decomposition of organic compounds, and the removal of microorganism. In the context of nanomaterial syntheses, solution plasma has been utilized to produce carbon nanoparticles and metallic-carbon nanoparticle systems. The main purpose of this study was to synthesize nickel nanoparticles embedded in a matrix of carbon particles by solution plasma in one-step using waste vegetable oil as the carbon source. The experimental setup was done by simply connecting a bipolar pulsed power generator to nickel electrodes, which were submerged in the waste vegetable oil. Black powders of the nickel nanoparticles-embedded carbon (NiNPs/Carbon) particles were successfully obtained after discharging for 90 min. The morphology of the synthesized NiNPs/Carbon was investigated by a scanning electron microscope, which revealed a good dispersion of NiNPs in the carbon-particle matrix. The X-ray diffraction of NiNPs/Carbon clearly showed the co-existence of crystalline Ni nanostructures and amorphous carbon. The crystallite size of NiNPs (through the Ni (111) diffraction plane), as calculated by the Scherrer equation was found to be 64 nm. In addition, the catalytic activity of NiNPs/Carbon was evaluated by cyclic voltammetry in an acid solution. It was found that NiNPs/Carbon did not show a significant catalytic activity in the acid solution. Although this work might not be helpful in enhancing the activity of the fuel cell catalysts, it is expected to find application in other processes such as the CO conversion (by oxidation) and cyclization of organic compounds.

응고 침전법으로 제조한 폴리스티렌(PS)/탄소나노튜브(CNT) 나노복합재료의 유변물성 및 전기적 물성을 고찰하였다. CNT의 분산성 향상을 위해 도입하는 일반적인 방법인 화학적 개질이나 계면활성제 도포 방법은 CNT의 고유 물성을 저하시킬 수 있다. 이를 방지하기 위해 본 연구에서는 PS와 CNT를 dimethylformamide에 분산시킨 후 증류수에 응고 침전시키는 방법으로 나노복합재료를 제조하였다. 응고 침전법에 의한 CNT의 분산은 매우 효과적이어서 제조한 나노복합재료는 우수한 전기 전도도를 나타내었다. 또한 PS 매트릭스에 poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) 가교 입자를 첨가하여 가교 입자 첨가가 유변물성과 전기적 물성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 가교 입자를 첨가한 나노복합재료의 경우 CNT의 전기적 임계점이 0.25 wt%로 감소되었고 전기 전도도는 더욱 증가하였다. 이는 가교입자가 차지하는 부피 내의 CNT가 전기적 통로를 형성하는데 추가적으로 기여했기 때문으로 판단된다.

Ni 금속을 바탕으로 중형 기공성 실리카와 상용 실리카를 담체로 사용하여 메탄화 반응용 촉매를 제조, 특성 비교를 수행하였다. TPR, XRD 분석 결과, 중형 기공성 실리카에 담지된 Ni촉매는 상용 실리카에 담지된 Ni 촉매에 비하여 보다 작은 크기로 Ni 금속이 분산되었으며 보다 강한 금속-담체 상호 결합력을 가짐을 확인하였다. 이와 같은 특성으로 인하여 중형 기공성 실리카를 사용한 촉매와 상용 실리카를 사용한 촉매의 수율은 각각 65%, 58%로 중형 기공성 실리카를 사용한 촉매가 메탄화 반응에서 보다 높은 활성을 보였으며, 반응 후에 회수된 촉매의 특성 분석 결과로부터 중형 기공성 실리카를 사용한 촉매가 구조의 붕괴, 금속 소결 현상으로 인하여 촉매의 비활성화가 진행된 상용 실리카 촉매에 비하여 상대적으로 안정하다는 것을 확인하였다.

In this study, physical characteristics of alumina slurry on variation of pH value and the effect of non-ionic surfactants on alumina slurry for copper chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) slurry have been investigated. After pH value of the slurry with alumina abrasive was changed by adding various amount of $HNO^3$ or KOH, the differences of settling rate, particle size, and zeta-potential were estimated. Better settling rates were shown in slurries with alumina abrasive at near pH 1. Higher zeta-potential was shown at around pH 2 in alumina slurry and the point of zero charge (PZC) was measured at about pH $9\sim10$. Non-ionic surfactant was added in the slurry with 5wt% alumina abrasive to get its effect on slurry practically. Abrasive size was smaller increased when amount of surfactant increased in slurry with P-4 as abrasive; on the other side, it was smaller when amount of surfactant decreased with AES-12. Variation of zeta-potential has no tendency with adding surfactant; however, values of zeta-potential were between $35\sim50mV$. The proper amount of surfactant was $0.1\sim1.0wt%$ in slurry with P-4 and $0.5\sim1.0wt%$ in slurry with AES-12 respectively. Excellent dispersion stabilization was obtained by addition of non-ionic surfactant

Samples of extruded dispersions of 24 vol.% spherical U-2wt%Mo and U-10wt.%Mo powders in an aluminum matrix were annealed for over 2,000 hours at 40$0^{\circ}C$. No significant dimensional changes occurred in the U-1025.%Mo/aluminum dispersions. The U-2wt.%Mo/aluminum dispersion, however, increased in volume by 26% after 2,000 hours at 40$0^{\circ}C$. This large volume change is mainly due to the formation of voids and cracks resulting from nearly complete interdiffusion of U-Mo and aluminum. Interdiffusion between U-10wt.%Mo and aluminum was found to be minimal. The different diffusion behavior is primarily due to the fact that U-2wt.%Mo decomposes from an as-atomized metastable r-phase(bcc) solid solution into the equilibrium r-U and U$_2$Mo two-phase structure during the experiment, whereas U-10wt.%Mo retains the metastable r-phase structure after the 2,000 hours anneal and thereby displays superior thermal compatibility with aluminum compared to U-2wt.%Mo. In addition, the molybdenium supersaturated in U-10wt.%Mo particles inhibits the diffusion of aluminum atoms along the grain boundary into the particle. Also, the dissolution of only a few Mo atoms in UAL$_3$ retards the formation of the intermediate phase, as Mo atoms need to migrate from new intermetallic compounds to unreacted islands.

In anion exchange membrane fuel cells, Pd nanoparticles are extensively studied as promising non-Pt catalysts due to their electronic structure similar to Pt. In this study, to fabricate Pd nanoparticles well dispersed on carbon support materials, we propose a synthetic strategy using mixed organic ligands with different chemical structures and functions. Simultaneously to control the Pd particle size and dispersion, a ligand mixture composed of oleylamine(OA) and trioctylphosphine(TOP) is utilized during thermal decomposition of Pd precursors. In the ligand mixture, OA serves mainly as a reducing agent rather than a stabilizer since TOP, which has a bulky structure, more strongly interacts with the Pd metal surface as a stabilizer compared to OA. The specific roles of OA and TOP in the Pd nanoparticle synthesis are studied according to the mixture composition, and the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR) activity and durability of highly-dispersed Pd nanocatalysts with different particles sizes are investigated. The results of this study confirm that the Pd nanocatalyst with large particles has high durability compared to the nanocatalyst with small Pd nanoparticles during the accelerated degradation tests although they initially indicated similar ORR performance.

Predicting carbon distribution of soil aggregates is difficult due to complexity in organo-mineral formation. This limits global warming mitigation through soil carbon sequestration. Therefore, knowledge of land use effect on carbon stabilization requires quantification of soil mineral cations. The study was conducted to quantify carbon and base cations on soil mineral fractions in Natural Forest, Plantation Forest and Farm Land. Five 0.09 ha were demarcated alternately along 500 m long transect with an interval of 50 m in Natural Forest (NF), Plantation Forest (PF) and Farm Land (FL). Soil samples were collected with soil cores at 0-15, 15-30 and 30-45 cm depths in each plot. Soil core samples were oven-dried at 105℃ and soil bulk densities were computed. Sample (100 g) of each soil core was separated into >2.0, 2.0-1.0, 1.0-0.5, 0.5-0.05 and <0.05 mm aggregates using dry sieve procedure and proportion determined. Carbon concentration of soil aggregates was determined using Loss-on-ignition method. Mineral fractions of soil depths were obtained using dispersion, sequential extraction and sedimentation methods of composite soil samples and sieved into <0.05 and >0.05 mm fractions. Cation exchange capacity of two mineral fractions was measured using spectrophotometry method. Data collected were analysed using descriptive and ANOVA at α_0.05. Silt and sand particle size decreased while clay increased with increase in soil depth in NF and PF. Subsoil depth contained highest carbon stock in the PF. Carbon concentration increased with decrease in aggregate size in soil depths of NF and FL. Micro- (1-0.5, 0.5-0.05 and <0.05 mm) and macro-aggregates (>2.0 and 2-1.0 mm) were saturated with soil carbon in NF and FL, respectively. Cation exchange capacity of <0.05 mm was higher than >0.05 mm in soil depths of PF and FL. Fine silt (<0.05 mm) determine the cation exchange capacity in soil depths. Land use and mineral size influence the carbon and cation exchange capacity of Gambari Forest Reserve.

수환경 내 철 (수산)산화물은 주로 광산 활동에 의해 생성되며 주변 환경을 교란시키는 대표적인 교질물이다. 철 (수산)산화물들 중 지표에 많이 분포하고 있는 적철석은 수환경 내 다양한 환경인자들로 인해 거동 특성이 변한다. 본 연구는 배경용액의 이온 조성과 세기, pH, 자연 유기물 등의 환경적 인자가 교질상 적철석의 거동에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 수행되었다. 특히, 적철석 교질물 입자들의 거동특성을 보다 더 명확하게 해석하고자 동적광산란분석기(dynamic light scatterer, DLS)와 단일입자 유도결합플라즈마질량분석기(single particle ICP-MS, spICP-MS)를 비교하여 분석을 수행하였다. 배경용액의 이온 조성과 세기가 변함에 따라 적철석 입자의 표면 확산이중층의 두께가 변화될 뿐만 아니라, 입자에 미치는 정전기적 힘과 van der Walls의 합력이 변하면서 입자의 응집/분산 특성이 달라지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 수환경의 pH가 적철석 입자의 영전하점(point of zero charge, PZC)에서 멀어질수록 정전기적 반발력이 커져 입자들이 분산되는 것을 확인하였다. 수환경 내 자연 유기물이 적철석의 표면을 코팅함에 따라서 자연 유기물 표면에 존재하는 카르복실기와 페놀기 등과 같은 작용기들로 인하여 적철석 입자의 정전기적 안정화와 구조적 안정화가 증가하는 것으로 조사되었다. 이러한 안정화 효과는 자연 유기물의 농도가 작을수록 증가하지만, 상대적으로 이온포텐셜이 큰 2가 양이온이 1가 양이온보다 자연 유기물로 코팅된 적철석 입자들 사이에서 더 큰 가교역할을 하기 때문에 자연 유기물로 코팅된 적철석 입자들의 안정화(분산)를 방해하는 것으로 확인되었다. 결론적으로, 수환경 내 교질상 적철석의 거동 특성은 이온의 조성과 세기, pH, 그리고 자연 유기물 등과 같은 환경적 인자들에 많은 영향을 받는 것을 정량적으로 확인할 수 있었는데, 그 중 자연 유기물은 수환경에서 교질물의 거동에 매우 지배적이고 주요한 제어인자임을 알 수 있었다. 한편, 적철석 입자의 거동 특성을 정량화할 수 있는 두 분석기법을 비교한 결과, DLS 분석기법은 신속성 및 편의성에서 강점을 지니는 반면 spICP-MS의 분석기법은 입자의 모양 및 응집 형태 등을 고려할 수 있는 장점이 있기 때문에 두 분석기법을 조합하여 활용하면 수환경 내 교질물의 거동 특성을 연구하는데 보다 더 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.
