Simple ways to build up mixed-metal molecules which can act as potential single-source precursors to multimetallic oxides are reviewed. Emphasis is given to Lewis acid-base reactions between metal alkoxides M(OR)/sub n/, and between metal alkoxides and more accessible oxide precursors, carboxylates M(O₂CR)/sub n/ and β-diketonates M(β-dik)/sub n/. Characterization of the precursors is achieved in the solid state (single crystal X-ray diffraction, FT-IR) and by multinuclear NMR in solution. The reactions proceed toward the formation of aggregates in which the different metals display their usual coordinations numbers, often six for transition metals, as shown. Strategies for fixing the stoichiometry between the metals are developed. The reactivity of the MM species (dissociation, effects of chemical modifiers, of other metallic species, hydrolytic or non-hydrolytic condensation, etc.) will be indicated. Transformations into oxides are illustrated on precursors for titanates or niobates.

Oxidative TCE decomposition over $TiO_2$-supported single and complex metal oxide catalysts has been conducted using a continuous flow type fixed-bed reactor system. Different types of commercial $TiO_2$ were used for obtaining the supported catalysts via an incipient wetness technique. Among a variety of titanias and metal oxides used, a DT51D $TiO_2\;and\;CrO_x$ would be the respective promising support and active ingredient for the oxidative TCE decomposition. The $TiO_2-based\;CrO_x$ catalyst gave a significant dependence of the catalytic activity in TCE oxidation reaction on the metal loadings. The use of high $CrO_x$ contents for preparing $CrO_x/TiO_2$ catalysts might produce $Cr_2O_3$ crystallites on the surface of $TiO_2$, thereby decreasing catalytic performance in the oxidative decomposition at low reaction temperatures. Supported $CrO_x$-based bimetallic oxide systems offered a very useful approach to lower the $CrO_x$ amounts without any loss in their catalytic activity for the catalytic TCE oxidation and to minimize the formation of Cl-containing organic products in the course of the catalytic reaction.

In this study, oxidation of As (III) as well as removal of total arsenic by adsorbents coated with single oxides or multi-oxides (Fe (III), Mn (IV), Al (III)) was investigated. In addition, multi-functional properties of adsorbents coated with multi-oxides were evaluated. Finally, application of activated carbon impregnated with Fe or Mn-oxides on the treatment of As (III) or As (V) was studied. As (V) adsorption results with adsorbents containing Fe and Al shows that adsorbents containing Fe show a greater removal of As (V) at pH 4 than at pH 7. In contrast adsorbents containing Al shows a favorable removal of As (V) at pH 7 than at pH 4. In case of iron sand, it has a negligible adsorption capacity for As (V) although it contains 217.9 g-Fe/kg-adsorbent, Oxidation result shows that manganese coated sand (MCS) has the greatest As (III) oxidation capacity among all metal oxides at pH 4. Oxidation efficiency of As (III) by IMCS (iron and manganese coated sand) was less than that by MCS. However the total removed amount of arsenic by IMCS was greater than that by MCS.

본 연구에서는 복합 수소분리막 중간층의 pin hole, crack 및 defect를 최소화하기 위하여 powder type과 sol type의 금속산화물을 이용하여 복합화하였다. 중간층의 표면 형상과 투과 특성은 주사전자현미경(SEM) 분석과 $N_2$ 투과도 테스트를 통해 평가하였으며, 제조한 수소분리막의 성능평가를 위해 $N_2$와 $H_2$를 이용하여 단일가스 투과 테스트를 수행하였다. Powder type과 sol type의 금속산화물을 각각 이용하여 중간층을 적층한 결과 sol type 금속산화물을 이용하여 적층한 중간층의 표면 조도가 매우 낮았으며, 특히 $TiO_2$ sol로 형성된 중간층의 pin-hole, crack 및 defect가 현저히 감소하였다. Powder와 sol을 복합화하여 적층한 중간층은 sol로 형성된 중간층과 거의 유사한 특성을 보였으며, 이를 기반으로 제조한 수소분리막은 1 bar의 압력구배, 672 K의 온도에서 약 $0.32mol/m^2s$의 수소 투과도를 나타내었으며, 선택도는 약 10,890 이상으로 측정되었다.

Single phase ruthenium oxides with perovskite (ATi1-xRuxO3 (A=Ca, Sr)) and pyrochlore structure (Bi2Ru2O7, Pb2Ru2O6.5) have been prepared reproducibly by solid state reaction methods and their electrocatalytic activities for oxygen evolution have been examined by Tafel plots. Tafel slopes vary from a low value of 42 mV/decade up to 222 mV/decade at room temperature. The high exchange current densities and high Tafel slopes compared with those obtained from the RuO2 DSA electrode at the crystalline single phase metal oxide electrodes suggest that they are better electrocatalysts at low overpotentials. A favorable change in the Tafel slope for the oxygen evolution reaction occurs as the ruthenium content increases. Substitution of Ti for Ru in the perovskite solid solutions enhanced their chemical stability by losing marginal electrochemical activity.

Transition metal oxides formed by a single or heterogeneous combination of transition metal ions and oxygen ions have various types of crystal structures, which can be classified as layered structures and non-layered structures. With non-layered structures, it is difficult to realize a two-dimensional structure using conventional synthesis methods. In this study, we report the synthesis of cobalt oxide into wafer-scale nanosheets using a surfactant-assisted method. A monolayer of ionized surfactant at the water-air interface acts as a flexible template for direct cobalt oxide crystallization below. The nanosheets synthesized on the water surface can be easily transferred to an arbitrary substrate. In addition, the synthesizing morphological and crystal structures of the nanosheets were analyzed according to the reaction temperatures. The electrochemical properties of the synthesized nanosheets were also measured at each temperature. The nanosheets synthesized at 70 ℃ exhibited higher catalytic properties for the oxygen evolution reaction than those synthesized at other temperatures. This work suggests the possibility of changing material performance by adjusting synthesis temperature when synthesizing 2D nanomaterials using a wide range of functional oxides, resulting in improved physical properties.

순수한 아나타제 구조로 이루어진 DT51D $TiO_2$에 $CrO_x,\;FeO_x,\;MnO_x,\;LaO_x,\;CoO_x,\;NiO_x,\;CeO_x,\;CuO_x$와 같은 단일 산화물 촉매를 각각 5 wt.% 담지하여 모델반응으로 선택한 기상 TCE 제거반응을 수행하였으며, 이로부터 얻어진 결과를 바탕으로 $CrO_x/TiO_2$-based 복합 산화물 촉매상에서 TCE 산화반응을 연구함으로써 유해 중금속의 사용량을 최소화하기 위한 최적의 촉매 디자인 방법을 도출하고자 하였다. DT51D $TiO_2$에 담지된 여러 단일 금속 산화물들 중에서 기상 TCE 제거반응에 대하여 $CrO_x$가 가장 우수한 촉매활성을 보이는 것으로 나타났으며, 반응온도의 함수로 얻어진 TCE 제거반응의 활성은 $CrO_x$의 담지량에 의존하였다. 5 wt.% $CrO_x$-based 복합 산화물 촉매는 10 wt.% $CrO_x$만으로 이루어진 단일 산화물 촉매와 거의 동일한 수준의 TCE 제거반응 활성을 보였을 뿐만 아니라 이 복합 산화물 촉매들은 10 wt.% $CoO_x,\;MnO_x,\;FeO_x,\;NiO_x$ 등과 같은 단일 산화물 촉매들보다 높은 반응활성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 단일 산화물 촉매의 반응활성과 비교하였을 때 5 wt.% $CrO_x$-based 복합 산화물 촉매상에서 TCE 제거반응 동안에 얻어지는 반응활성의 증가 정도는 $420^{\circ}C$ 이하의 반응온도 기준으로 약 $10{\sim}80%$ 이상이었다. 따라서, CVOCs 제거반응을 위하여 널리 사용되고 있는 단일 $CrO_x/Al_2O_3$ 촉매보다는 $CrO_x$의 사용량을 최소화하면서도 우수한 반응활성을 얻을 수 있는 $CrO_x/TiO_2$-based복합 산화물 촉매가 보다 바람직하며 하나의 대안적인 촉매 디자인 방법으로 응용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Well-defined surfaces of single-crystalline solid materials are starting points of self-organizationof nanostructures and chemical reactions controlled in nanoscale. Although highly ordered atomicarrangement can be obtained on semiconductor surfaces, they can be maintained only in vacuumand not in air or in aqueous environment. Since single-crystalline metal oxide surfaces arechemically stable and no further oxidation occurs, their atomic structures can be utilized fornanofabrication in liquid processes, nanoelectrochemistry and nanobiotechnology. Sapphire is oneof the most stable metal oxides and its crystalline quality is excellent, as can be applied to electronicdevices that require ultralow defect densities. We recently found that chemical phase separationoccurs on sapphire surfaces by annealing processes and the formed nanodomains exhibit specificproperties in air and in water [1,2]. In our experiments, highly selective and controllable adsorptionof various protein molecules is observed on the phase-separated surfaces though the materials andcrystallographic orientations are identical [3,4]. Planar lipid bilayers supported on thephase-separated sapphire surface also exhibit a specific formation site selectivity [5]. Chemicalnanodomains appear on other metal-oxide surfaces, such as well-ordered titania surfaces. Wedemonstrate that surface chemistry of the nanodomains can be characterized in aqueousenvironment using atomic force microscopy equipped with colloidal tips and then show adsorptionand desorption behaviors of various proteins on the phase-separated surfaces.

Adsorption capacities of toxic heavy metal ions using as-received carbon(AC), single and double surface-modified activated carbon(OAC and DSMC) in wide pH ranges are extensively evaluated. Physical and chemical properties of surface-modified activated carbons are evaluated through BET analysis, surface acidity and oxides measurements. Based oil tile adsorption isotherms of Pb, Cd and Cr ions by AC, OAC and DSMC, the adsorption amount on DSMC was obviously higher than that on the other carbons. Breakthrough behaviors of ternary metal ions in a column packed with three kinds of carbon were also characterized with respect to the variations of the influent pH and concentration. The adsorption capacity of DSMC in a fixed bed stood a favorable comparison with that of as-received carbon.
