고분자전해질 연료전지에서 사용되는 전도성 카본에 백금이 담지된 전극촉매를 콜로이드법을 이용하여 합성하였다. 콜로이드법 합성을 위한 백금 전구체로는 PSA (platinum sulfite acid)를 사용하였으며, 고가의 전구체를 대체하기 위해 CPA (chloroplatinic acid)를 사용하여 합성하였다. PSA를 전구체로 하여 제조한 전극촉매는 10~40 wt% 담지량에서 3.5 nm 이하의 백금 입자크기와 90% 이상의 백금 담지수율을 보였다. CPA를 전구체로 사용한 경우에는 10~40 wt% 담지량에서 4.4 nm 이하의 백금 입자 크기를 보였으며 담지수율은 80% 이상이었다. 제조한 20 wt% Pt/VXC72 전극촉매로 MEA (membrane electrode assembly)를 제조하여 I-V 곡선을 측정하였으며, 제조한 전극촉매를 이용한 막전극접합체는 상용전극촉매를 사용한 경우와 동등한 성능을 보였다.

Aluminum tri-butoxide was mixed with the water/ethanol solution and then chloroplatinic acid was added to the solution. The solution was dried at $100^{\circ}C$ for 15hrs to remove the solvent and water then it was calcined at $500^{\circ}C$. The catalyst was activated with a gas mixture. During the activation, the temperature was increased from $150^{\circ}C$ to $500^{\circ}C$. The necessary amount of urea was dissolved in 50mL water and injected. Aqueous urea solution was then mixed with the feed gas stream. At low temperatures, nitrogen containing compounds of urea decomposition are used as reductants in the reducton of $NO_X$. However at high temperatures the nitrogen containing compounds are oxidized to NO and $NO_2$ by oxygen instead of being used in the reduction. The activity of the catalyst was dependent on urea concentration in the feed stream when there was not adequate water vapor in the feed. The maximum conversion was shifted from $250^{\circ}C$ to $150^{\circ}C$ when water concentration was increased from 2 to 17%. It seems that the maximum temperature shifts to lower temperatures because the hydrolysis rate of HNCO increases with water, resulting in higher amounts of $NH_3$.

In this work, we have prepared platinum catalyst by various methods, investigated fuel cell performance and compared performance with commercially available $20\%$ Pt supported on carbon (Pt/C) catalyst. We have found that Pt/C prepared by reduction of chloroplatinic acid in mixed solvent (water+ethylene glycol) gives better performance compared to that produced by reduction of aqueous chloroplatinic acid, which can be attributed to smaller catalyst particle size and lower agglomeration in the mixed solvent. We have also prepared a novel platinum electrocatalyst by depositing platinum on Nafion coated carbon powder and it shows great promise. The performance of electrode prepared using $20\%Pt$ onn Nafion coated carbon mixed with Pt/C was found to be higher than the performance of electrodes using commercially available $20\%$ Pt/C, up to a current density of about $1100mA/cm^2$. The cell voltages obtained were respectively 621 and 603mV, at a current density of: $1000mA/cm^2$, in a single cell using $0.25mgPt/cm^2$ and Nafion 10035 membrane at $80^{\circ}C$ using hydrogen/oxygen reactants at 1 atm pressure.

Anionic ring-opening polymerization of 3,4-[(dimethylsilyl)isopropyl]benzo-1,1-dimethyl-1-silacyclopentene in the presence of n-butyllithium and HMPA in THF at - 78 ℃ afforded poly[3,4-(dimethylsilylisopropyl)benzo-1,1-dimethyl-1-silapentene]. The characteristic Si-H stretching frequency in the IR is observed at 2100 cm-1. The polycarbosilane has been modified by chloroplatinic acid catalyzed addition of styrene to the polycarbosilane SiH units. Molecular weights and thermal properties of the polymers were compared. The sol-gel polymerization of 3,4-[(dimethoxysilyl)isopropyl]benzo-1,1-dimethoxy-1-silacyclopentene in the presence of aqueous HCl or NaOH in THF resulted in a cross-linked polysiloxane. The xerogel has a low surface area of 13-14 m2/g and is stable up to about 400 ℃ with only 5% weight loss under a nitrogen atmosphere.

Photoirradiation at > 300 nm onto a suspension of platinized TiO$_2$ (TiO$_2$-Pt) particles in an aqueous solution. of N$_{\varepsilon}$-carbamyI-L-lysine (Lys(CONH)$_2$) induced the selective N-cyclization of Lys(CONH$_2$) into almost optically pure L-pipecolinic acid (PCA) under argon atmosphere at ambient temperature. Among various TiO$_2$-Pt catalysts, a P-25 (Degussa) powder platinized via impregnation from chloroplatinic acid followed by hydrogen reduction at 753 K exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity for Lys(CONH$_2$) consumption and L-PCA production. GC-MS analyses of L-PCA obtained photocatalytically from $^{15}$N$\alpha$-Lys(CONH$_2$) revealed the selective formation $^{15}$N-substituted L-PCA. This implies that the mechanism for L-PCA production contains selective cleavage of C$_{\varepsilon}$-N bond and intramolecular alkylation at $\alpha$-amino group. Effect of pH on the rate of this photocatalytic reaction was investigated in detail and compared with the pH-dependent charge distribution in Lys(CONH$_2$) molecule. It is clarified that protonation-deprotonation of $\alpha$-amino group gives marked influence on the rate and selectivity of the photocatalytic reaction. On the basis of these results, it is concluded that the selective production of optically pure L-PCA, especially in an acidic suspension of TiO$_2$-Pt, was attributed to the enhanced protonation of $\alpha$-amino group to prevent undesirable oxidation by photogenerated positive holes and blocking of $\varepsilon$-amino group to yield racemic Schiff base intermediate.

SnO2-TiO2(Pt or Pd), as raw material for hydrocarbon gas sensors, was prepared by a coprecipitation method. The SnO2-TiO2-based thick film gas sensors were made by screen printing technique. The titanium dioxide synthesized was shown to be anatase structure from XRD peaks and was transformed to rutile structure between 700$^{\circ}C$ and 1000$^{\circ}C$. Titanium dioxide in SnO2-TiO2 thick films devices plays a very important role in the enhancement of the sensitivity to CH4 and C4H10. In the case of SnO2-TiO2(Pt) sensors, titanium dioxide that was rutile structure enhanced the sensitivity of the thick film to CH4. Platinum added to the raw powder at coprecipitation (as chloroplatinic acid VI hydrate) improved the gas sensitivity to hydrocarbon gases. Therefore, it is expected that the SnO2-TiO2(Pt) thick film sensors fabricated in this experiment could be put into practical use as LPG (primary component : C4H10 and C3H8) and LNG (primary component : CH4) sensors.

백금촉매의 분산을 향상시키기 위하여 카본블랙의 표면처리, 용매, 계면활성제 및 초음파분산기에 따른 효과를 고찰하였다. 카본블랙을 산화처리하여 카본블랙 표면에 친수성기인 작용기들을 도입함으로써 작용기들이 염화백금산 이온의 anchorage center역할을 하여 이 염화백금산을 환원시킬 때 백금입자(이온)의 이동이나 성장을 억제시켜 미립화 시킬 수 있다고 생각되었다. 혼합용매, 계면활성제, 초음파분산기 등을 이용한 경우, 염화 백금산이온이 anchorage center 역할을 하고 있는 작용기들에 까지 잘 스며들어감으로써 백금촉매의 분산성이 향상됨을 알았다. 혼합용매에 초음파분산기를 사용하여 공기산화시킨 카본블랙에 백금촉매를 담지시킨 결과, 분산성이 가장 우수하였으며 입자크기는 $30A^{\circ}$ 이하로 미립화 되었다.

다양한 비율의 Pt와 Bi를 carbon black (Vulcan XC-72R)에 담지시킨 Pt-Bi/C 촉매를 환원법을 이용하여 합성하였다. Pt와 Bi의 전구체로는 염화백금산($H_2PtCl_6{\cdot}xH_2O$)과 비스무스트리질산($Bi(NO_3)_3{\cdot}5H_2O$) 수용액을 각각 사용하였으며, 금속을 carbon에 담지하기 전, 금속물질의 분산도를 높여주기 위해 열처리와 산처리를 수행한 carbon black을 사용하였다. XRD (X-ray Diffraction) 분석과 XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy) 분석을 통하여 Pt-Bi/C 촉매 내에 Pt와 Bi가 소성시키기 전에는 BiPt 혹은 $Bi_2Pt$로 존재하지만 $500^{\circ}C}$에서 소성을 한 후에는 Pt 격자구조 안으로 Bi가 침투하여 alloy을 형성하는 것을 확인하였다. 합성한 전극의 메탄올 산화반응은 전기화학분석장치(Potentiostat; Princeton applied research, VSP)를 사용하여 0.5 M $CH_3OH$와 0.5 M $H_2SO_4$의 혼합수용액에서 순환전압법(cyclic voltammetry, CV)을 이용해 측정하였다. 메탄올 산화에 대한 전기화학적 촉매 활성을 평가한 결과 적절한 양의 Bi를 첨가한 경우, 메탄올 산화반응에 대한 높은 촉매활성을 나타냄을 확인하였다. 메탄올 산화에 대한 활성은 전극과 전해질 사이의 안정성과 밀접한 관련이 있다. 정전압법(Chronoamperometry, CA)을 이용하여 전극의 안정성을 평가한 결과 메탄올 산화반응에 높은 활성을 나타내는 촉매일수록 전극의 안정성도 높은 것을 확인하였다.
