The roles of Na, Mn, W and silica, and the synergistic effects between each metal in the $MnNa_2WO_4/SiO_2$ catalyst have been investigated for oxidative coupling of methane (OCM). The crystallisation of amorphous silica during calcination at $900^{\circ}C$ was promoted primarily by Na, but Mn and W also facilitated this process. The interaction between Na and Mn tended to increase the extent of conversion of $Mn_3O_4$ to $Mn_2O_3$. The formation of $Na_2WO_4$ was dependent on the order in which Na and W were introduced to the catalyst. The impregnation of W before Na resulted in the formation of $Na_2WO_4$, but this did not occur when the impregnation order was reversed. $MnWO_4$ formed in all cases where Mn and W were introduced into the silica support, regardless of the impregnation order; however, the formation of $MnWO_4$ was inhibited in the presence of Na. Of the prepared samples in which a single metal oxide was introduced to silica, only $Mn/SiO_2$ showed OCM activity with significant oxygen conversion, thus demonstrating the important role that Mn plays in promoting oxygen transfer in the reaction. The impregnation order of W and Na is critical for catalyst performance. The active site, which involves a combination of Na-Si-W-O, can be formed in situ when distorted $WO_4^{2-}$ interacts with silica during the crystallisation process facilitated by Na. This can only occur if the impregnation of W occurs before Na addition, or if the two components are introduced simultaneously.

토양에서 화강암 지역은 $Al_2O_3,\;Na_2O$, 천매암 지역은 $Fe_2O_3,\;MnO,\;MgO$, 혈암 지역은 $SiO_2,\;CaO$에서 높았다. 이 화강암 지역과 천매암 토양의 원소 특성은 이들 토양 중의 광물 차이를 반영한다. 상관관계에서 화강암, 천매암, 혈암 3지역 공히, 정의 관계가 $Al_2O_3-K_2O,\;Fe_2O_3-MgO$ 쌍에서, 부의 관계가 $SiO_2-CaO$ 쌍에서 나타났다. 인삼에서 동일 연생 인삼의 지역적 비교 시 2, 3년에 관계없이 혈암 지역이 높은 함량 원소가, 화강암 지역이 낮은 함량의 원소가 많았다. 즉 2년생은 천매암 지역의 Fe, Ca, 혈암 지역의 Al, Mn, Na, Ti에서, 3년생은 화강암 지역의 Mn, Na, 천매암 지역의 Ca, 혈암 지역의 Al, Fe, Ti에서 높은 값이 나타났다. 같은 지역 인삼의 연생 차이별 비교에서 3지역 공히 2년생에서 Al, Na, Ti가 높았다. 또한 화강암 지역은 2년생의 Al, Mn, Mg, Na, Ti, 3년생의 Fe, Ca에서, 천매암 지역은 2년생의 Al, Fe, Mg, Ca, Na, Ti, 3년생은 Mn, K에서 높았다. 지상부의 무기성분 함량에 대한 2, 3년의 지역 별 비교에서 혈암 지역이 높은 원소가 많았고 화강암 지역이 낮은 원소가 많았다. 2년생의 경우 화강암 지역은 Ca, 천매암 지역은 Fe, Ca, 혈암 지역은 Al, Mn, Na, Ti에서, 3년생의 화강암 지역은 Mn, 천매암 지역은 Ca, 혈암 지역은 Al, Fe에서 높았다. 상관관계에서 2, 3년생의 경우 공히 Al-Ti, Mn-Na쌍에서 정의 관계가 나타났다. 뿌리의 무기성분 함량에서 2년생은 화강암 지역에서 높은 원소가 많았고, 천매암 지역이 낮은 원소가 많았다. 3년생은 혈암 지역에서 높은 원소가 많았고, 천매암 지역이 낮은 원소가 많았다. 즉 2년생은 화강암의 Al, Mn, Na, 천매암 지역의 Fe, Ca, 혈암지역의 Ti에서, 3년생은 화강암 지역의 Ca, Na, 혈암 지역의 Al, Fe, Mn, Ti에서 높았다. 2년생은 화강암 지역의 Fe, 천매암 지역의 Al, Mn, Na, Ti, 혈암 지역의 Ca, 3년생은 화강암 지역의 Fe, 천매암 지역의 Al, Mn, Na, Ti, 혈암 지역의 Ca, K에서 낮았다. 지상부와 뿌리 부분 비교에서 지역에 관계없이 수 배 차이로 Fe, Mn, Ca는 지상부가, Ti는 하부가 높았다. 지역에 관계없이 Mn, Ca, Fe, Al, Na, Ti 순서로 지상/하부 비율이 내려갔다. 토양과 인삼의 무기성분 함량관계에서 지역에 관계없이 Ca는 수 십 배의 차이로, Mn는 수 배에서 수 십 배 차이로 인삼이 높았고, Na, Fe, Ti, Al은 수배의 차이로 토양이 높았다. 인삼과 토양의 비에서 대부분 지역이 2년생이 크고 3년생이 작았으며, 지역에 관계없이 공히 Al, Mn, Na는 2년생이 크고 3년생이 작았다. 이 결과는 인삼의 연령이 증가함에 따라 토양 중 원소를 흡수하여, 더욱더 토양의 특성을 반영하기 때문으로 생각된다.

Using first-principles calculations, we successfully investigate the electrochemical performance of the monoclinic $NaMnO_2$ for the sodium ion batteries. $NaMnO_2$ possesses a voltage window of 3.54-2.52 V and theoretical reversible capacity of $136mAh\;g^{-1}$. Besides, we find that the metallicity of the monoclinic $NaMnO_2$ gradually increases during Na extraction. Moreover, the computational Na migration energy barrier in the monoclinic $NaMnO_2$ is 0.18 eV, ensuring ideal conductivity and reversible capacity. Although the Jahn-Teller distortion effects limit the enhancement of the reversible capacity of the monoclinic $NaMnO_2$, it is still a right cathode material for the sodium ion batteries. The computational results are well in consistent with the experimental investigations.

A simple and effective method for the synthesis of LiMn$_{2}$O$_{4}$ powder as a cathode material for lithium secondary battery is reported. Micrometer size LiMn$_{2}$O$_{4}$ was prepared by combustion synthesis technique employing initial mixture of l.l LiNO$_{3}$ -1.3Mn-0.7MnO$_{2}$-1NaCl composition. Parametric study of the combustion process including molar ratio of Mn/MnO$_{2}$ and NaCl concentration were carried out under air atmosphere. The combustion products obtained were additionally heat treated at the temperature 900$^{\circ}C$ and the washed by distilled water. The results of charging-discharging characteristics revealed that LiMn$_{2}$O$_{4}$ cell synthesized in the presence of NaCl had a high capacity and much better reversibility than one formed without NaCl An approximate chemical mechanism for LiMn$_{2}$O$_{4}$ formation is proposed.

As one of the thermochemical water splitting hydrogen production cycles, which could be operated at the lower temperature below 1200 K, we investigated the feasibility of the cyclic operation of Ispra Mark 2 cycle with the addition of $ZrO_2$. The cycle is theoretically composed of three reaction steps; (1) 1st step($2MnO_2{\rightarrow}Mn_2O_3+0.5O_2$), (2) 2nd step($Mn_2O_3+4NaOH{\rightarrow}2Na_2O{\cdot}MnO_2+H_2+H_2O$) and (3) 3rd step($2Na_2O{\cdot}MnO_2H_2O{\rightarrow}4NaOH+2MnO_2$). From the TPR tests, the temperature ranges for $O_2$ production in 1st step and $H_2$ production in 2nd step were $550{\sim}750^{\circ}C$ and $650{\sim}750^{\circ}C$, respectively. In $MnO_2/Mn_2O_3/NaOH$ system, the formation of molten products due to the reaction between manganese oxides and NaOH were greatly decreased with the addition of $ZrO_2$. In addition, the results of a cyclic test were discussed with the viewpoint of $H_2$ production amounts and the feasibility of the process improvement.

본 연구에서는 세 가지 다른 방법으로 제조된 망간사에 의한 용존 $Mn^{2+}$의 제거특성을 회분식 및 칼럼실험을 통하여 조사하였다. 실험실 규모에서 망간의 주입농도를 달리하여 망간사 제조시, 모래에 코팅된 망간 코팅량은 주입된 망간 농도에 비례하여 나타났다. 망간사에 의한 용존 망간의 제거는 용액의 pH 증가에 따라 증가하는 양이온형 흡착경향을 따랐다. 흡착을 통한 용존 망간의 제거는 망간사 코팅방법 및 코팅량에 거의 영향을 받지 않고 모든 pH 영역에서 유사하게 나타났다. NaClO를 산화제로써 주입하였을 때 망간사에 의한 용존 망간의 제거는 NaClO 농도에 비례하였다. 이러한 결과는 NaClO 주입농도 증가에 따라 용존 망간이 망간산화물로 산화되고 이때 생성되는 산화망간이 망간사 표면으로의 코팅이 증가되어 나타난 현상으로 여겨진다. 칼럼반응기를 이용한 용존 망간제거 실험에서, NaClO를 주입하지 않은 경우에는 4,100 bed volume 이 후 땅간의 파과가 이루어졌지만, NaClO를 주입하였을 경우에는 파과가 1.6배 지연되어 나타나서 산화제를 사용하는 것이 용존 망간의 제거율을 높이는 것임을 또한 확인할 수 있었다.

Electrical properties and microstructure were investigated on the effects of $MnO_2$ and the lead-free $(Na_{0.44}K_{0.52}Li_{0.04})(Nb_{0.83}Sb_{0.07}Ta_{0.1})O_3$ ceramics with the addition of $MnO_2$ were fabricated by a conventional mixed oxide method. A gradual change in the crystal and microstructure was observed with the increase of $MnO_2$ addition. For the NKN-LST-xmol%$MnO_2$ sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$, bulk density increased with the addition of $MnO_2$ and showed maximum value at addition 1.0mol% of $MnO_2$. Curie temperature of the NKN-LST ceramics slightly decreased with adding $MnO_2$. The dielectric constant, piezoelectric constant ($d_{33}$) and electromechanical coupling factor ($k_p$) increased below 0.25mol% of $MnO_2$ addition, which might be due to the increase in density. The high piezoelectric properties = 145 pC/N, electromechanical coupling factor = 0.421 and dielectric constant = 2883 were obtained for the NKN-LST-0.25mol%$MnO_2$ sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$ for 4h.

Lead-free piezoelectric ($Na_{1/2}K_{1/2}$)$NbO_3$ ceramics doped with CuO and $MnO_2$ were fabricated using the conventional oxide-mixing technique. With increasing content of CuO and $MnO_2$, the dielectric constant(${\varepsilon}_{33}$) and mechanical quality factor($Q_m$) value increased, while electromechanical coupling factor($K_p$) and piezoelectric constant($d_{33}$) decreased. The piezoelectric and dielectric properties ($Na_{1/2}K_{1/2}$)$NbO_3$ ceramics doped with CuO 2.461 wt% and $MnO_2$ 0.538 wt% at sintered temperature $1050\;^{\circ}C$ were attained ${\varepsilon}_{33}$ = 403, $K_p$ = 15, $Q_m$ = 122 and $d_{33}$ = 36 pC/N. Based on response surface methodology results using design of experiment, it was concluded that ($Na_{1/2}K_{1/2}$)$NbO_3$ doped with CuO 0.477 wt% and $MnO_2$ 0.269 wt% has possibility composition of being used for piezoelectric transformer.
