$NaAl(OH)_2CO_3$was synthesized using colloidal earth (Allophane) as the starting material and some of its were studied in detail. It was found that Dawsonite was formed in the pH range (pH 12.5~12.0) that the concentration of $HCO_3^-$ was just begun to increase and the presence of $HCO_3^-$ in the product was clarified from the infrared absorption spectrum. The chemical formular of Dawsonite was therefore presumed as $NaAlO (OH) HCO_3$. From toahhe results of X-ray powder diffraction, both peaks at 5.7 $\AA$ and 2.8 $\AA$ were observed, and fibrous crystalline structure was observed from electron micrograph and also found from the microscopic electron diffraction at 5.7 $\AA.$ Therefore the fibrous axis was considered as =Al=O2=Al=O2=Al=(*image) direction. True specific gravity of Dawsonite was 2.44 and its porosity was 91.4%. It was practically insoluble in water, but decomposed in the boiling water to form Pseudo Boehmite. Stable pH range of Dawsonite was about 4.5~11.5. From the results of D.T.A. and T.G.A., it was observed that $CO_2$was liberated at $350^{\circ}C$, and $H_2O$ at $650^{\circ}C$, and converted into strongly hygroscopic $NaAlO_2$, which was easily decomposed in water into $\beta-Al(OH)_3(Bayerite)$ and NaOH.

The formation mechanism of unstable alkali and its existing states in the clinker were studied. The relation of unstable alkali content vs. other water-soluble components porosity and the distributionof potassium were investigated. The results are as follows :1) Two states of unstable alkali seem to exist in clinker ie compounds of $K_2O-Al_2O_3$ system and free $K_2O$ 2) The content of water-soluble $Al_2O_3$ tends to increase with increase of unstable alkali content, 3) Most of alkalies in clinker are concentrated in liquid phase at high temperature. Therefore it is possible to make various $K_2O-Al_2O_3$ system compounds according to the content of $K_2O$ in the liquid phase of clinker. In this experiment we found out a $K_2O-Al_2O_3$ compound of high $Al_2O_3$ content (34%) and high $K_2O$ content (33%) in clinker with 1.09% unstable alkali. 4) The porosity of clinker tends to increase with increase of unstable alkali content. 5) The amount of trapped alkali vapor may increase in closed pore in the clinker with high alkali and low $SO_3$ condecent. Therefore free $K_2O$ is the condensed alkali on the wall of closed pore in the clinker.

This study aims to evaluate arsenic adsorption efficiencies over various metal oxides (CeO₂, TiO₂, Fe₃O₄, ZrO₂, AlOOH, SiO₂, α-Al₂O₃, and γ-Al₂O₃) and investigate the correlation between physico-chemical characteristics of metal oxides and their efficiencies. From XPS, XRD BET analysis and isotherm adsorption test, TiO₂ powder showed that the best adsorption efficiency, and it's mechanism was highly depended on the chemical adsorption.

The alumina-zirconia composite powders of core particle ZrO2 coated with Al2O3 were prepared by the hydrolysis-deposition of the mixed aluminum salt solution of Al2(SO4)3-Al(NO3)3-Urea. The effects of hydrolysis reaction and coating parameters on characteristics of coated powders and composites were also investigated. The degree of coating could be estimated from the ratio of tetra-/mono-ZrO2 present at the room temperature after heat-treating coated powders at 120$0^{\circ}C$ and the result of TEM observations. When the content of ZrO2 in the dispersed coating system, the coating time, and the volume ratio of water/solution were 50 mg/g, 180 min, and 5, respectively the coating efficiency was maximum (the ratio of tetra-/mono-ZrO2 was 87/13). The relative densities of coated Al2O3-ZrO2 composites sintered at 1$650^{\circ}C$ for 4 hrs were about 91~98% and the maximum ratio of tetra-/mono-ZrO2 in Al2O3-20wt% ZrO2 composites was 62/38.

Nanostructured Cu-$Al_2O_3$ composite powders were synthesized by thermochemical process. The synthesis procedures are 1) preparation of precursor powder by spray drying of solution made from water-soluble copper and aluminum nitrates, 2) air heat treatments to evaporate volatile components in the precursor powder and synthesis of nano-structured CuO + $Al_2O_3$, and 3) CuO reduction by hydrogen into pure Cu. The suggested procedures stimulated the formation of the gamma-$Al_2O_3$, and different alumina formation behaviors appeared with various heat treating temperatures. The mean particle size of the final Cu/$Al_2O_3$ composite powders produced was 20 nm, and the electrical conductivity and hardness in the hot-extruded bulk were competitive with Cu/$Al_2O_3$ composite by the conventional internal oxidation process.

The alumina-titania composite powders coated with Al2O3 were prepared by the method of hydrolysis-deposition of mixed aluminium salt solution of Al2(SO)4-Al(NO3)3-Urea. The effects of coating-process parameters on the characteristics of coated composite powders were also investigated. As the content of TiO2 dispersed in deionized water increased, the coated composite powders were found to be more uniform in size and unagglomerated. When TiO2 powders were coated for 30 min, the optimum TiO2 content in the coating process was 400 mg/ι. The size of TiO2 particle was increased approximately from 0.7${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ to 1.0${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ through coating of Al2O3. The IEP of coated composite powders was pH=8.3 identical to the value of aluminium hydroxides and the zeta-potential showed nearly similar values each other. When heat treating coated composite powders at 130$0^{\circ}C$, only two phases of TiO2(rutile) and Al2TiO5 were observed. These results showed that the suface of TiO2 could be uniformly coated with the aluminium hydroxide.

Hydrolysis of aluminum isopropoxide with excess water in the presence of excess isopropyl alcohol resulted in the formation of boehmite in independence of temperature of hydrolysis and aging. Stoichiometric and substoichiometric amount of water hydrolyzed aluminum isopropoxide to pseudo-boehmite and amorphous one, respectively. $\alpha$-Al2O3 with 0.3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in median size was produced by calcination of boehmite, bseudo-boehmite and amorphous boehmite at 125$0^{\circ}C$, 120$0^{\circ}C$, and 115$0^{\circ}C$ for one hour, respectively. Singnificant reduction in particle size was found during transition from $\theta$-Al2O3 to $\alpha$-Al2O3. $\alpha$-Al2O3 produced in this study was relatively uniform spherical and its purity was found to be over 99.9%.

High purity Al2O3 has been extracted from serlcite of clayminerals, selicite was treated by H2SO4(2N∼18N) solution, NH4OH treatment(PH8.5∼10.0) and metallic impurities such as Fe were removed by NaOH treatment. The tendency of extraction yield of ${\alpha}$-Al2O3 have been investigated by relating reaction time, acid concentration. Reaction products were analyzed by DT-TGA, chemical analysis and X-ray diffractometer. Prepared ${\alpha}$-Al2O3 power is fired in air at 1400$^{\circ}C$, 1600$^{\circ}C$ 2hr. The results are as follows; 1. The most suitable extracting conditions of ${\alpha}$-Al2O3 from Selicite were N-H2SO4, 120 min acidtreating time. 2. The optimum pH condition was 9.0. 3. Physical properties of sintered Al2O3 bodies were as follows. Relative density is 99%. Water absorption is 0.26%. Rock well hardness is 89.

A nickel foam, one of metal foams was seleced as a catalyst support instead of conventional ceramic materials. $Al_2O_3$ was coated on the surface of nickel foam to increase the surface area. $Al_2O_3$ coating process was based on sol-gel process. SEM image was obtained and $Al_2O_3$ coverage was confirmed. Combustion experiments were carried out using SUS combustor and $H_2$/air mixture. Temperatures were measured with different equivalence ratios and $H_2$ flow rates. $H_2$ conversion rates were calculated by the analysis of product gas using gas chromatography. Catalytic combustion of $H_2$ was complete and stable with Pt/$Al_2O_3$ coated nickel foam and influences of water vapor were confirmed during the beginning of combustion.

본 연구에서는 메탄 습식 개질 반응용 Ni/Al₂O₃ 촉매에 첨가된 Ce_xZr_1-xO₂(CZ)가 촉매 반응 효율에 미치는 효과를 조사하였다. 반응 실험 결과, CZ 조촉매가 첨가된 Ni/Al₂O₃ 촉매는 동일 온도, 동일 steam to carbon ratio에서 Ni/Al₂O₃ 촉매보다 높은 메탄 전환율과 수소 수율을 보였다. 특성 분석 결과, 두 촉매 모두 유사한 기공 구조와 비슷한 Ni 분산도를 가지고 있어 이는 반응 효율에 영향을 미치는 요소가 아님을 확인하였다. 하지만, 라만 분광 분석결과에서 CZ 조촉매 첨가 Ni/Al₂O₃ 촉매는 Ni/Al₂O₃ 촉매와 달리 CZ상에서 oxygen vacancy가 존재하고, 이는 상대적으로 낮은 반응 온도에서 물 활성화를 촉진시키는 것으로 확인되었다. CZ 조촉매 상의 oxygen vacancy에 의한 물 활성화는 저온 영역에서 CZ 조촉매 첨가 Ni/Al₂O₃ 촉매의 습식 개질 반응 성능을 증대시켰다.
