Perovskite type ceramic membranes which exhibit dual ion conduction (proton and oxygen ion conduction) can permeate water and can aid solving operational problems such as temperature gradient and carbon deposition associated with a working solid oxide fuel cell. From this point of view, it is crucial to reveal water transport mechanism and especially the nature of the surface sites that is necessary for water incorporation and evolution. $BaCe_{0.8}Y_{0.2}O_{3-{\alpha}}$ (BCY20) was used as a model proton and oxygen ion conducting membrane in this work. Four different catalytically modified membrane configurations were used for the investigations and water flux was measured as a function of temperature. In addition, CO was introduced to the permeate side in order to test the stability of membrane against water and $CO/CO_2$ and post operation analysis of used membranes were carried out. The results revealed that water incorporation occurs on any exposed electrolyte surface. However, the magnitude of water permeation changes depending on which membrane surface is catalytically modified. The platinum increases the water flux on the feed side whilst it decreases the flux on the permeate side. Water flux measurements suggest that platinum can block water permeation on the permeate side by reducing the access to the lattice oxygen in the surface layer.

BSCCO tpaes with insulating ceramic barriers such as Zr$O_{2}$, $Al_{2}$$CO_{3}$, and Sr$CO_{3}$ were fabricated and their electrical properties were evaluated. Each filament was dip coated with ceramic slurries and then made 19 multifilamentary tapes by the “powder-in-tube” process. Microstructural investigation showed that filaments were completely decoupled each other and had a significant sausage effect. The critical current of coated tapes was reduced compared to that of non coated one, and its reduction was varied with the coating materials. For tapes with coated with Sr$CO_{3}$, the critical current was measured to be 7.2 A which was 44% reduction to that of non coated one. This reduction is believed to be due to the formation of sausage effect and non-uniform microstructure.

We fabricated single cells with a cathode consisting of a $LaNi_{0.6}Fe_{0.4}O_3-Ce_{0.8}Sm_{0.2}O_{1.9}$ composite (LNF-S20DC composite) active layer and an LNF current collecting layer on a ${0.89ZrO_2}-{0.10Sc_2}{O_3}-0.01{Al_2}{O_3}$ electrolyte sheet. The cathode layers were prepared by the screen-printing method. The cathode properties of these cells were measured by the AC impedance method at $800^{\circ}C$. The cathodes with the ceria-LNF composite active layer exhibited high power performance prior to current loading. We investigated the influence of the mixture ratio of LNF and S20DC on the cathodes properties. The Sm in the ceria particles of the composite cathode was substituted with other rare-earth elements. Cathodes with Pr and Gd co-doped ceria in the active layer provided the better performance than those with Sm- or Gd-doped ceria.

단층활동 과정에서 암석 내 화학조성과 광물 조성 간의 연관성을 이해하기 위한 목적으로 경주시 양북면 용당리에 발달하는 단층암에 대하여 XRF, ICP, XRD, EPMA/BSE 분석을 시행하여 단층암 내의 광물 조성 및 원소의 거동 경향성을 파악하였다. 단층암의 대표적인 주성분으로서 $SiO_2$는 61.6~71.0%의 범위로 가장 높은 함량을 나타내며, $Al_2O_3$는 10.8~15.8%이다. $Na_2O$는 0.22~4.63%, $K_2O$는 2.02~4.89%이고, $Fe_2O_3$는 3.80~12.5% 범위로 나타나 단층암 내에서 특히 이들 원소의 편차가 크다. 각력대에서 비지대로 갈수록 감소하는 경향을 나타내는 원소에는 $Na_2O$, $Al_2O_3$, $K_2O$, $SiO_2$, CaO, Ba, Sr 등이 있고, 증가하는 경향을 나타내는 원소에는 $Fe_2O_3$, MgO, MnO, Zr, Hf, Rb 등이 있다. 이러한 화학적 거동은 각력대가 대부분 석영, 장석류와 같은 주요 조암광물로 구성되는 반면, 비지대는 일라이트와 같은 점토광물이 다량 함유되는 것과 밀접한 관련성이 있다. 본 단층대에서는 기존 광물의 변질과 동시에 점토광물이 생성되는 데 있어 단층 활동에 수반된 유체활동이 큰 영향을 끼쳤다. 단층활동 초기에는 파쇄대가 열수의 통로로 작용하는 과정에서, 주원소 및 미량원소, 희토류원소는 기존 광물로부터 용탈되어 높은 원소 유동성을 나타내었으나, 파쇄대 중심부가 비지대로 점차 변화하는 과정에서는 이차적으로 형성된 점토광물로 인해 단층대의 투수성이 감소하고, 점토광물이 풍부해진 비지대 내에 농집되므로 낮은 원소 유동성을 가진 것으로 해석된다.

본 연구에서는 고정층 반응기(높이 15 cm, 내경 0.5 cm)에서 K-계열 건식 흡수제($K_2CO_3/Al_2O_3$, 한국전력공사 전력연구원)를 이용하여 반응압력 변화에 따른 염화수소 흡수 실험을 수행하였다. 반응온도는 가스화 직후, 필터를 거쳐서 주입되는 것을 가정하여 $400^{\circ}C$로 설정하였으며, 반응기체 농도는 750 ppm HCl ($N_2$ balance)으로 설정하였다. 반응압력은 1, 5, 10, 15, 20 bar로 증가시켰다. 압력이 증가할수록 K-계열 흡수제의 흡수 성능이 증가하였다. 흡수제를 구성하고 있는 주요 물질인 $K_2CO_3$가 HCl 가스와 반응하여 KCl 결정을 형성하였으며, 강한 결합에너지로 인하여 흡수제의 재생이 실질적으로 불가능하였다. 이에 대한 광학적, 물리적, 화학적 특성을 SEM, EDX, BET, TGA, XRD를 이용하여 분석하였다. $400^{\circ}C$, 20 bar 조건(가스화 이후 탈할로겐 공정의 온도 및 압력조건)에서 $K_2CO_3$ 흡수제는 Ca 계열 및 Mg 계열의 흡수제에 비해 높은 HCl 흡수능 및 HCl/$N_2$ 분리 거동을 보였다.

The research and development of hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) and electric vehicle (EV) are intensified due to the energy crisis and environmental concerns. In order to meet the challenging requirements of powering HEV, PHEV and EV, the current lithium battery technology needs to be significantly improved in terms of the cost, safety, power and energy density, as well as the calendar and cycle life. One new technology being developed is the utilization of composite cathode by mixing two different types of insertion compounds [e.g., spinel $LiMn_2O_4$ and layered $LiMO_2$ (M=Ni, Co, and Mn)]. Recently, some studies on mixing two different types of cathode materials to make a composite cathode have been reported, which were aimed at reducing cost and improving self-discharge. Numata et al. reported that when stored in a sealed can together with electrolyte at $80^{\circ}C$ for 10 days, the concentrations of both HF and $Mn^{2+}$ were lower in the can containing $LiMn_2O_4$ blended with $LiNi_{0.8}Co_{0.2}O_2$ than that containing $LiMn_2O_4$ only. That reports clearly showed that this blending technique can prevent the decline in capacity caused by cycling or storage at elevated temperatures. However, not much work has been reported on the charge-discharge characteristics and related structural phase transitions for these composite cathodes. In this presentation, we will report our in situ x-ray diffraction studies on this mixed composite cathode material during charge-discharge cycling. The mixed cathodes were incorporated into in situ XRD cells with a Li foil anode, a Celgard separator, and a 1M $LiPF_6$ electrolyte in a 1 : 1 EC : DMC solvent (LP 30 from EM Industries, Inc.). For in situ XRD cell, Mylar windows were used as has been described in detail elsewhere. All of these in situ XRD spectra were collected on beam line X18A at National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS) at Brookhaven National Laboratory using two different detectors. One is a conventional scintillation detector with data collection at 0.02 degree in two theta angle for each step. The other is a wide angle position sensitive detector (PSD). The wavelengths used were 1.1950 ${\AA}$ for the scintillation detector and 0.9999 A for the PSD. The newly installed PSD at beam line X18A of NSLS can collect XRD patterns as short as a few minutes covering $90^{\circ}$ of two theta angles simultaneously with good signal to noise ratio. It significantly reduced the data collection time for each scan, giving us a great advantage in studying the phase transition in real time. The two theta angles of all the XRD spectra presented in this paper have been recalculated and converted to corresponding angles for ${\lambda}=1.54\;{\AA}$, which is the wavelength of conventional x-ray tube source with Cu-$k{\alpha}$ radiation, for easy comparison with data in other literatures. The structural changes of the composite cathode made by mixing spinel $LiMn_2O_4$ and layered $Li-Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ in 1 : 1 wt% in both Li-half and Li-ion cells during charge/discharge are studied by in situ XRD. During the first charge up to ~5.2 V vs. $Li/Li^+$, the in situ XRD spectra for the composite cathode in the Li-half cell track the structural changes of each component. At the early stage of charge, the lithium extraction takes place in the $LiNi_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ component only. When the cell voltage reaches at ~4.0 V vs. $Li/Li^+$, lithium extraction from the spinel $LiMn_2O_4$ component starts and becomes the major contributor for the cell capacity due to the higher rate capability of $LiMn_2O_4$. When the voltage passed 4.3 V, the major structural changes are from the $LiNi_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ component, while the $LiMn_2O_4$ component is almost unchanged. In the Li-ion cell using a MCMB anode and a composite cathode cycled between 2.5 V and 4.2 V, the structural changes are dominated by the spinel $LiMn_2O_4$ component, with much less changes in the layered $LiNi_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}O_2$ component, comparing with the Li-half cell results. These results give us valuable information about the structural changes relating to the contributions of each individual component to the cell capacity at certain charge/discharge state, which are helpful in designing and optimizing the composite cathode using spinel- and layered-type materials for Li-ion battery research. More detailed discussion will be presented at the meeting.

High Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF) thermal spray coating of nano size WC-Co powder (nWC-Co) has been studied as one of the most promising candidate for the possible replacement of the traditional hard plating in some area which causes environmental and health problems. nWC-Co powder was coated on Inconel 718 substrates by HVOF technique. The optimal coating process obtained from the best surface properties such as hardness and porosity is the process of oxygen flow rate (FR) 38 FMR, hydrogen FR 57 FMR and feed rate 35 g/min at spray distance 6 inch for both surface temperature $25^{\circ}C\;and\;500^{\circ}C$. In coating process a small portion of hard WC decomposes to less hard $W_2C$, W and C at the temperature higher than its decomposition temperature $1,250^{\circ}C$ resulting in hardness decrease and porosity increase. Friction coefficient increases with increasing coating surface temperature from 0.55-0.64 at $25^{\circ}C$ to 0.65-0.76 at $500^{\circ}C$ due to the increase of adhesion between coating and counter sliding surface. Hardness of nWC-Co is higher or comparable to those of other hard coatings, such as $Al_2O_3,\;Cr,\;Cr_2O_3$ and HVOF Tribaloy 400 (T400). This shows that nWC-Co is recommendable for durability improvement coating on machine components such as high speed spindle.

Mg/Al 몰비를 1에서 3 범위에서 변화시켜 Mg-Al 혼합산화물을 공침법으로 제조하였다. 제조된 Mg-Al 혼합산화물은 X-선회절분석, 주사전자현미경분석, 질소흡착에 의한 비표면적 및 기공부피 측정, 이소프로판올의 승온탈착모델 반응으로 제조된 산화물의 특성분석을 수행하였다. 소성된 Mg-Al 혼합산화물은 이소프로판올의 탈수소/탈수반응에 적용하여 산염기 특성을 비교하였다. Mg-Al 혼합산화물에서 Al 함량이 증가함에 따라 비표면적 및 산점세기가 비례적으로 증가하였다. 이러한 산점세기 변화는 이소프로판올의 전환율 및 프로필렌 선택도에 직접적인 영향을 미쳤다.

In this study, Fe-Ni slag, converter slag and dephosphorization slag generated from the steel industry, and fly ash or bottom ash from a power plant, were mixed at an appropriate mixing ratio and melted in a melting furnace in a mass-production process for glass ceramics. Then, glass-ceramic products, having a basalt composition with $SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, CaO, MgO, and $Fe_2O_3$ components, were fabricated through casting and heat treatment process. Comparison was made of the samples before and after the modification of the process conditions. Glass-ceramic samples before and after the process modification were similar in chemical composition, but $Al_2O_3$ and $Na_2O$ contents were slightly higher in the samples before the modification. Before and after the process modification, it was confirmed that the sample had a melting temperature below $1250^{\circ}C$, and that pyroxene and diopside are the primary phases of the product. The crystallization temperature in the sample after modification was found to be higher than that in the sample before modification. The activation energy for crystallization was evaluated and found to be 467 kJ/mol for the sample before the process modification, and 337 kJ/mol for the sample after the process modification. The degree of crystallinity was evaluated and found to be 82 % before the process change and 87 % after the process change. Mechanical properties such as compressive strength and bending strength were evaluated and found to be excellent for the sample after process modification. In conclusion, the samples after the process modification were evaluated and found to have superior characteristics compared to those before the modification.
