본 연구에서는 염산처리에 의하여 표면 개질된 활성탄소 섬유에 TNB (titanium n-butoxide) 용액을 침투시켜 $ACF/TiO_2$ 광촉매를 제조하였다. 염산 처리에 의하여 표면 기능기가 증가된 다공성 탄소에 형성된 $TiO_2$의 특성화에 연구의 관점을 두었다. TNB가 $TiO_2$로 변화되는 산처리 효과는 $ACF/TiO_2$ 광촉매제조에 상당히 중요한 요소임을 확인하였다. 표면 특성분석 결과로부터, BET 비표면적과 전체 동공부피는 산처리 양이 증가함에 따라 표면의 이산화티탄 화합물 형성과 함께 감소함을 나타내었다. 염산처리에 의해 형성된 $ACF/TiO_2$ 계에 대한 X-선 회절 변화로부터, 염산을 처리하지 않은 FT와 0.05, 0.1 M 처리된 FT1, FT2의 3가지 시료의 경우, 주요한 회절선의 피크는 아나타제의 결정상을 나타내었으며, 0.5M 처리된 FT3의 경우 아나타제와 루타일의 두 가지 형상이 나타났다. SEM 결과로부터, 전처리 하기전과 후에 활성탄소섬유 주변에 형성된 화합물들의 분포가 현저하게 다름을 알 수 있었으며, 이러한 현상은 산처리 효과의 우수성을 설명하고 있다. EDX 결과에 의하면, 모든 시료의 스펙트럼은 C, Ti와 O의 피크가 주요한 특징적 피크로 크게 나타났음을 보여 주고 있다. 마지막으로 MB (methylene blue)의 제거 효율에 근거하여, MB 농도 감소는 활성탄소섬유의 흡착효과와 $TiO_2$의 우수한 광분해 효과에 대한 두 가지 복합적인 결과로 설명할 수 있다.

Different weight percentages of Ag, Pt, and Au doped nano $TiO_2$ were synthesized using the acetic acid hydrolyzed sol-gel method. The crystallite phase, surface morphology combined with elemental composition and light absorption properties of the doped nano $TiO_2$ were comprehensively examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), $N_2$ sorption analysis, transmission electron microscopic (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray, and DRS UV-vis analysis. The doping of noble metals stabilized the anatase phase, without conversion to rutile phase. The formation of gold nano particles in Au doped nano $TiO_2$ was confirmed from the XRD patterns for gold. The specific surface area was found to be in the range 50 to 85 $m^2$/g. TEM images confirmed the formation a hexagonal plate like morphology of nano $TiO_2$. The photocatalytic activity of doped nano $TiO_2$ was evaluated using 4-chlorophenol as the model pollutant. Au doped (0.5 wt %) nano $TiO_2$ was found to exhibit higher photocatalytic activity than the other noble metal doped nano $TiO_2$, pure nano $TiO_2$ and commercial $TiO_2$ (Degussa P-25). This enhanced photocatalytic activity was due to the cathodic influence of gold in suppressing the electron-hole recombination during the reaction.

$V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ 촉매의 질소산화물 환원반응에 있어서 $V_2O_5$ 함량이 NO 환원 및 $N_2O$ 생성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 분말촉매를 사용한 미분반응기에서 실험 연구를 수행하였다. 고정된 비율의 $WO_3$와 $TiO_2$에 $V_2O_5$ 함량을 1에서 8 wt%까지 변화시킨 촉매에서 NO 환원반응과 암모니아 산화반응 특성이 조사되었다. $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ 촉매에서 NO 환원 반응은 $200^{\circ}C$ 이하에서도 상당량 진행되지만, $V_2O_5$ 함량을 1 wt% 촉매의 경우 700 ppm의 NO를 99.9%이상 전환시키는 최저 반응온도가 $340^{\circ}C$에서 아주 좁은 활성 온도창으로 일어났다. 그리고 이 활성온도는 촉매의 $V_2O_5$ 함량이 증가됨에 따라 점점 저온 쪽으로 이동하여, 6 wt% 촉매의 경우 $220{\sim}340^{\circ}C$에서 높은 활성을 보였다. $V_2O_5$ 함량이 8 wt% 촉매의 경우 전 온도 구간에서 6 wt% 촉매보다 낮은 NO 환원율을 보였다. 그러나 반응온도 $340^{\circ}C$ 이상에서는 촉매의 $V_2O_5$ 함량이 증가함에 따라 NO 전환율이 감소하였다. 이는 $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ 촉매의 NO 환원을 위한 촉매 활성점 상당 크기 이상의 $V_2O_5$ 입자와 관계되는 것으로 판단되며 촉매 입자가 클수록 $320^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 암모니아 산화에 의해 발생되는 $N_2O$ 생성을 고려하여야 한다. $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ 촉매는 배기가스 중의 질소산화물 제거를 위하여 현재 통상적으로 $350{\sim}450^{\circ}C$의 영역에서 운전되고 있으나, 고온 영역에선 2차 오염물인 $N_2O$의 발생을 피할 수 없고 에너지 소비량이 많으므로, $250{\sim}320^{\circ}C$의 저온 영역에서 적합한 촉매로써 $V_2O_5$ 함량이 높은 $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ 촉매의 사용이 권장되었다.

Various Semiconductor/Metal structured nanowires were synthesized from the simple thermal annealing of ball-milled compound powders and the thermal evaporation of metals. Their structural properties were investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy(TEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDX). Depending on the type of metals and the material of nanowires, uniform somiconductor/metal nanowires(GaN/Al, GaN/Ag) or isolated metal particles on semiconductor nanowires$(SnO_2/Ti,\;Si/Ti)$ were formed on the surface of nanowires.

We report a novel method to synthesize nanocomposites composed of titania nanoparticles and phosphotungstate ions with various composition ratios ranging from W/Ti = 12/10 to 12/500 by inducing the electrostatic interaction between the positively charged protonated titania sol-particles and the negatively charged phosphotungstate anions to flocculate and precipitate. The precipitates showed varied features depending on the composition. The precipitate from the tungsten-richest W/Ti = 12/10 reaction is amorphous in its powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Raman spectroscopy data. This material shows the Type II adsorption characteristics in its N2-adsorption isotherm, but with quite low surface area of 34 m2/g. To the contrary, the precipitates from the titanium-richer reactions (W/Ti = 12/50- 12/500) are composed of anatase nanoparticles of 2-6 nm by XRD, TEM and Raman and show the Type I adsorption characteristics. The surface area linearly increases with the titanium content from 131 m2/g for W/ Ti = 12/50 to 228 m2/g for 12/500. The precipitate from the reaction with the intermediate composition W/Ti = 12/20 is composed of anatase nanoparticles and does not have any pore accessible to N2. With the wide variety of the physical properties of the precipitates, the present method can be a novel, viable means to tailor synthesis of nanocomposite materials. A formation mechanism of the precipitates is based on the electrostatic interactions between the titania nanoparticles and phosphotungstate ions.

Titanium, which has excellent strength and toughness characteristics, is increasingly used in the aerospace field. Among the titanium alloys used for body parts, more than 80 % are Ti-6Al-4V alloys with a tensile strength of 931 MPa. The spark plasma sintering (SPS) method is used for solidification molding of powder manufactured by the mechanical milling (MM) method, by sintering at low temperature for a short time. This sintering method avoids coarsening of the fine crystal grains or dispersed particles of the MM powder. To improve the mechanical properties of pure titanium without adding alloying elements, stearic acid was added to pure titanium powder as a process control agent (PCA), and MM treatment was performed. The properties of the MM powder and SPS material produced by solidifying the powder were investigated by hardness measurement, X-ray diffraction, density measurement and structure observation. The processing deformation of the pure titanium powder depends on the amount of stearic acid added and the MM treatment time. TiN was also generated in powder treated by MM 8 h with 0.50 g of added stearic acid, and the hardness of the powder was higher than that of Ti-6Al-4V alloy when treated with MM for 8 h. When the MM-treated powder was solidified in the SPS equipment, TiC was formed by the solid phase reaction. The SPS material prepared as a powder treated with MM 8 h by adding 0.50 g of stearic acid also formed TiN and exhibited the highest hardness of Hv1253.

In this research we tried to make nano-sized TiNx by using planetary milling, and we made the composites double layered of titanium and nano-sized TiNx by using spark plasma sintering apparatus after mixing with the different ratio of pure titanium powder, and they were heat treated at $850^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. The crystal structures of nano-sized TiNx powders and the composites were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The microstructures of the powders were analyzed by using scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and the 40-50 nm size of nano-sized TiNx particle on the surface of agglomerated particles was investigated. With increasing the ratio of nano-sized TiNx of the composites, the microvickers hardness of the composites was increased.

To verify the fate and transport of engineered nanoparticles (ENP), it is essential to understand its interactions with organic matter. Previous research has shown that dissolved organic matter (DOM) can increase particle stability through steric repulsion. However, the majority of the research has been focused on model organic matter such as humic or fulvic acids, lacking the understanding of organic matter found in field conditions. In the current study, organic matter was sampled from wastewater treatment plants to verify the stability of engineered nanoparticles (ENP) under field conditions. To understand how different types of organic matter may affect the fate of ENP, wastewater was sampled and separated based on their size; as small organic particular matter (SOPM) and large organic particular matter (LOPM), and dissolved organic matter (DOM). Each size fraction of organic matter was tested to verify their effects on nano-zinc oxide (nZnO) and nano-titanium oxide (nTiO₂) stability. For DOM, critical coagulation concentration (CCC) experiments were conducted, while sorption experiments were conducted for organic particulates. Results showed that under field conditions, the surface charge of the particles did not influence the stability. On the contrary, surface charge of the particles influenced the amount of sorption onto particulate forms of organic matter. Results of the current research show how the size of organic matter influences the fate and transport of different ENPs under field conditions.

Different colloidal particles generally co-exist in the water and wastewater. Thus, there needs to identify practical electrokinetic characteristics of the particles, comparing with the case when each colloidal material is independently distributed. In this study, changes of overall zeta potential was examined through mixed dispersions of $TiO_{2}$ and $MnO_{2}$. The mixing ratios were classified into 3-type in order to distinguish the effects of the proportions of each particle from those of total concentration in colloidal suspensions. The types are single colloidal dispersions of $TiO_{2}$ and $MnO_{2}$ (1:0, 0:1), mixed dispersions at different ratios (0.75:0.25, 0.5:0.5, 0.25:0.75), and a mixed dispersion with doubled concentration (1:1), respectively. It showed that the overall variation of zeta potential as a function of pH was intensified in a colloidal dispersion with the ratio of 1:1. It was concerned that the double action of ion would contribute to this result. On the one hand, the zeta potentials of each colloidal dispersion commonly decreased at the state of strong acid and base under the influence of compression of the electric double layer. The changing patterns were also considered through calculating total interaction energy between colloidal particles based on DLVO theory and measuring turbidity of the colloidal dispersions.
