Ni-YSZ (Yttria Stabilized Zirconia) composite powders for SOFC were fabricated by glycine nitrate process. $ZrO(NO_3)_2{\cdot}2H_2O$, $Y(NO_3)_3{\cdot}6H_2O$, $Ni(NO_3)_2{\cdot}6H_2O$ and glycine were chosen as the starting materials. The structural properties of the sintered Ni-YSZ cermets have been investigated with respect to the volume contents of Ni. A porous microstructure consisting of homogeneously distributed Ni and YSZ phases together with well-connected grains was observed. The sintered Ni-YSZ cermets showed a porous microstructure consists of homogeneously distributed Ni and YSZ phases and the grains were well-connected. It was found that the open porosity is sensitive to the volume content of Ni. The Ni-YSZ cermet containing 35 vol% Ni seems to be suitable for the electrode material of SOFC since it provides sufficient open porosity higher than 30%.

The complex formation from Ni(II) ion and 2-(2-Hydroxyethylamino)-2-(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-propanediol(Monotris) in aqueous solution at $25^{\circ}C$ and at ionic strength of 0.10M has been studied potentiometrically. In the Monotris(L) comlex $NiL^{2+}$, hydroxyl oxygen atom as well as the amine nitrogen of the ligand are coordinated to the Ni(II) ion.. The complex $NiL^{2+}$ undergoes further dissociation as the pH is increased forming triply deprotonated dinuclear complex $Ni_2L_2H_{-3}^+$.

The correlation was investigated between the observed heat of ligation and calculated quantum chemical quantities for octahedral $[M(H_2O)_{6-x}(NH_3)_x]^{2+} (M=Fe(II),\;Ni(II))$ complexes by EHMO(Extended Huckel Molecular Orbital) and ZINDO/1(Zerner's Intermediate Neglected of Differential Overlap)method. The net charge of $Fe^{2+}$ and $Ni^{2+}$ ion of octahedral $[M(H_2O)_{6-x}(NH_3)_x]^{2+}(M=Fe(II),\;Ni(II))$ complexes(x=O, 1, …, 6) decreased with substituting $NH_3$ for $H_2O$ molecules. It has found that a good correlation exists between the observed heat of ligation and the calculated quantum chemical quantities such as net charge of central atom, enthalpy of formation, and total dissociation energy. From this finding, we have obtained the following semiempirical linear equation ${\Delta}H_{obs}=-0.2858_{qFe}+0.8813(r=0.97),\;{\Delta}H_{obs}=-0.8981_{qNi}+1.7929(r=0.95),\;{\Delta}H_{obs}=-0.0031H_{f(Fe)}+0.5725(r=0.97),\;{\Delta}H_{obs}=-0.0095H_{f(Ni)}+0.9193(r=0.97),\;{\Delta}H_{obs}=0.0476E_{diss(Fe)}+0.6434(r=0.94),\;{\Delta}H_{obs}=0.1401E_{diss(Ni)}+1.1393(r=0.93)$.

The objective of this works was to synthesize the$Mg_2Ni$ hydrogen storage materials economically and to eliminate the intial activation process. $Mg_2NiH_x$ was mechanically alloyed under purified hydrogen gas atmosphere using pure Mg and Ni chips. M.A(Mechanical Alloying) was carried out using planetary ball mill for times varying from 12h to 96h under 20bars of hydrogen gas pressure. $Mg_2NiH_x$ started to form after 48h and the homogeneous $Mg_2NiH_x$ composites was synthesized after 96h. From TG analysis, the dehydriding reaction of $Mg_2NiH_x$ started at around $200^{\circ}C$. The result of P-C-T at $300^{\circ}C$ revealed the hydrogen storage capacity of $Mg_2NiH_c$ reached 3.68 wt% and the effective hydrogen storage was 2.38 wt%. The enthalpy difference of absorption-desorption cycling for the hydride formation and the hysteresis were reduced and the plateau flatness and the sloping were improved according to M.A time.

$MgH_2$ was employed as a starting material instead of Mg in this work. A sample with a composition of 94 wt% $MgH_2-6$ wt% Ni (called $MgH_2-6Ni$) was prepared by reactive mechanical grinding. The hydriding and dehydriding properties were then examined. An $MgH_2-Ni$ hydrogen storage alloy that does not require an activation process was developed. The alloy was prepared in a planetary ball mill by grinding for 4 h at a ball disc revolution speed of 250 rpm under a hydrogen pressure of about 12 bar. The sample absorbed 3.74 wt% H for 5 min, 4.07 wt% H for 10 min, and 4.41 wt% H for 60 min at 573 K under 12 bar $H_2$, and desorbed 0.93 wt% H for 10 min, 1.99 wt% H for 30 min, and 3.16 wt% H for 60 min at 573 K under 1.0 bar $H_2$. $MgH_2-6Ni$ after reactive mechanical grinding contained ${\beta}-MgH_2$ (a room temperature form of $MgH_2$), Ni, ${\gamma}-MgH_2$ (a high pressure form of $MgH_2$), and a very small amount of MgO. Reactive mechanical grinding of Mg with Ni is considered to facilitate nucleation, and to reduce the particle size of Mg. $Mg_2Ni$ formed during reactive mechanical grinding also increases the hydriding and dehydriding rates of the sample.

It has been prepared by a coprecipitation method for Ferroxplana $Ni_2Y\;(Ba_2Ni_2Fe_{12}O_{22}$ magnetic particles, which is one of the Hexagonal ferrite. The coprecipitates were synthesized by adding aqueous solution of $BaCl_2{\cdot}2H_2O,\;NiCl_2{\cdot}6H_2O\;and\;FeCl_2{\cdot}4H_2O$ (of which the mole ratio is $Ba^{2+}:Ni^{2+}:Fe^{2+}$=1:1:6) to a mixture of NaOH and $Na_2CO_3$ solution. The shape of Ferroxplana $Ni_2Y$ magnetic particles obtained at the calcined temperature 1,100($^{\circ}C$) was hexagonal plate-like, average particle size was 2(${\mu}m$), and aspect ratio was more than 7.

The thermal behavior of NiFe$_2$O$_4$ prepared by a solid-state reaction was investigated for H$_2$ generation by the thermochemical cycle. The reduction of NiFe$_2$O$_4$ started from 800 $^{\circ}C$, and the weight loss was 0.2-0.3 wt％ up to 1000 $^{\circ}C$. At this reaction, NiFe$_2$O$_4$ was reduced by release of oxygen bonded with the Fe$^3$ion in the B site of NiFe$_2$O$_4$. In the $H_2O$ decomposition reaction, H$_2$ was generated by oxidation of reduced NiFe$_2$O$_4$. The crystal structure of NiFe$_2$O$_4$ for redox reaction maintained spinel structure. Then, NiFe$_2$O$_4$ is excellent material in the thermochemical cyclic reaction due to release oxygen at low temperature for the reduction reaction and produce H$_2$ maintaining crystal structure for redox reaction.

Tolaasin secreted by Pseudomonas tolaasii is a peptide toxin and causes brown blotch disease on the cultivated mushrooms by collapsing cellular and fruiting body structure. Toxicity of tolaasin was evaluated by measuring hemolytic activity because tolaasin molecules form membrane pores on the red blood cells and destroy cell membrane structure. In the previous studies, we found that tolaasin cytotoxicity was suppressed by $Zn^{2+}$ and $Ni^{2+}$. $Ni^{2+}$ inhibited the tolaasin-induced hemolysis in a dose-dependent manner and its $K_i$ value was 1.8 mM. The hemolytic activity was completely inhibited at the concentration higher than 10 mM. The inhibitory effect of $Zn^{2+}$ on tolaasin-induced hemolysis was increased in alkaline pH, while that of $Ni^{2+}$was not much dependent on pH. When the pH of buffer solution was increased from pH 7 to pH 9, the time for 50% hemolysis ($T_{50}$) was increased greatly by $100{\mu}M$ $Zn^{2+}$; however, it was slightly increased by 1 mM $Ni^{2+}$ at all pH values. When the synergistic effect of $Zn^{2+}$ and $Ni^{2+}$ on tolaasin-induced hemolysis was measured, it was not dependent on the pH of buffer solution. Molecular elucidation of the difference in pH-dependence of these two metal ions may contribute to understand the mechanism of tolaasin pore formation and cytotoxicity.
