Nano core shell structures of $TiO_2$ particles coated on surface of ZnO nanoparticles were prepared by the polymerized complex and sol-gel method. The average particle size of ZnO by the polymerized complex method showed 100 nm and the average particle size of $TiO_2$ by the sol-gel method showed below 10 nm. The average particle size of $ZnO@TiO_2$ nano core shell struture represented about 150 nm. The agglomeration between the ZnO particles using the polymerized complex method was highly controlled by the uniform absorption of $TiO_2$ colloid on the spherical ZnO surfaces. The driving force of heterogeneous bonding between ZnO and $TiO_2$ was induced by the Coulomb force. The ZnO and $TiO_2$ particles electrified with + and - charges, respectively, resulted in strong bonding by the difference of iso-electric point (IEP) when they laid neutrality pH area, depending on the heterogeneous surface electron electrified by the different zeta potential on the pH values.

$TiO_2$-nanoparticle-dispersed silicone was applied to a LED package and the light efficiency of the LED package was evaluated in this study. The addition of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles in silicone increased refractive index, which improved the light efficiency of the LED package. The $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were fabricated by hydrothermal synthesis and were dispsersed by a vinyl silane coating treatment. After the silane treatment, the $TiO_2$ nanoparticles dispersed with diameters of 10~40 nm but rod-shape $TiO_2$ nanoparticles with lengths of 100 nm were also observed. The refractive index increased with the $TiO_2$ concentration in silicone, while the transmittance decreased with the $TiO_2$ concentration. The light efficient of the LED package with $TiO_2$+silicone encapsulant was higher than that of the LED package with no $TiO_2$ in silicone encapsulant.

In this work, HA/$TiO_2$ biocomposite to get high mechanical properties with biocompatibility were prepared. HA/$TiO_2$ biocomposite powders were prepared by mixing $TiO_2$ and HA powders which were synthesized through sol-gel, precipitation and hydrothermal methods. The mixing ratio was fixed at 1:1 ratio (HA/$TiO_2$, wt%). HA/$TiO_2$ biocomposite powders showed different microstructures depending on their particle size and shape. The smaller particles were coated on the surface of larger particles, whereas they were well mixed and dispersed when both $TiO_2$ and HA were nanocrystallites. HA/$TiO_2$ biocomposite powders with homogeneous microstructure showed high sintered density and good mechanical properties.

$BaTiO_3$는 현재 전기 전자 부속 산업엣 필수적인 재료로서, multilayer capacitor,positive temperature coefficient(PTC) resistor, grain-boundary battier layer capacitor(GBBLC)등에 쓰이고 있다. $BaTiO_3$의 전기적 특성을 최대화하기 위해서는 미세구조가 최적화 되어야만 하는데 일반적으로 수 마이트로 이내의 작고 균일한 크기의 입자크기가 바람직하다. 그러나 $BaTiO_3$계에서 화학양론의 조성이 정확하게 일치하지 않거나 $La^{3+}$나 $Nb^{5+}$같은 첨가제가 들어가지 않으면 비정상 입자 성장은 자발적으로 일어난다. 그러나 첨가제는 $BaTiO_3$의 강자성 특성에 영향을 주게 되므로 첨가제 없이 비정상 입자 성장을 억제할 수 있는 것이 바람직한 방법이며, 이 것이 본 실험의 목표이다. 본 실험에서는 0.4-mol%-$TiO_2$가 첨가된 $BaTiO_3$ 분말을 디스크 형태로 성형하여 $H_2$ 분위기, 1250에서 5시간동안 열처리한 후, 공기 중, 1300도에서 48시간까지 소결한 후 미세조직을 관찰하였다. 소결 전에 $H_2$ 분위기에서 열처리를 함으로서 초기 입자 크기는 증가하게 되고 이로 인한 계의 성장 구동력 감소로 비정상 입자 성장이 억제되었으며 균일하고 미세한 입자 크기를 가지는$BaTiO_3$ 소결체를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 비정상이 억제되지 않은 $BaTiO_3$의 유전 특성보다 우수한 유전 특성을 나타내었다. 본 실험을 통해서 첨가제를 사용하지 않고 우수한 유전 특성을 가지는 미세한 균일한 입자의 $BaTiO_3$를 제조하는 새로운 기술을 개발하였다.

이성분 산화물인 ZnO/$TiO_2$ core-shell 나노입자는 core-shell 구조의 특성과 이성분 산화물의 상호작용에 의해서 염료감응형 태양전지의 효율향상을 기대할 수 있다. Znic acetate($Zn_2(CH_3COO)$)와 Titanium(IV) butoxide($Ti(OBu)_4$)를 이용하여 ZnO 나노입자를 수열합성하고 그 주의에 $TiO_2$을 가수분해 반응을 이용하여 둘러싸는 core-shell형태의 물질을 합성하였다. 그 이후 결정성 및 유기물 제거를 위해서 4시간 동안 고온에서 소성하였다. SEM 결과에 따르면 소성 온도를 600도까지 증가시키면 ZnO의 경우 나노입자의 크기가 증가하는 경향을 확인하였다. 하지만 core-shell의 경우는 ZnO의 뭉침현상을 $TiO_2$이 방해하여 초기합성된 크기와 동일한 크기를 유지하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 XRD 결과에 따르면 주변에 형성된 $TiO_2$ 이외에 $Zn_2TiO_4$의 spinel 구조를 가지는 물질이 합성되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 합성된 core-shell 구조의 나노입자는 약 40~50 nm의 크기를 가지고 600도에서 소성된 입자의 경우 산소 정공이 거의 없는 약 3 eV의 밴드갭을 가지는 물질로 합성이 되었다. Core-shell 나노입자의 경우 염료 감응형 태양전지의 반도체 물질로 응용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

Composite membranes consisting of TiO₂ nanoparticles (NPs) and porous polymers have been widely utilized in photocatalytic water treatment because the composite membranes can allow an easy recovery of NPs after the photocatalytic reaction as well as the reduction of fouling in the membrane. However, the photocatalytic efficiency of the immobilized TiO₂ NPs in the composite membranes has been discussed to a limited degree. In this study, we prepared polyethersulfone (PES)/TiO₂ composite membranes to study the photocatalytic decomposition of organic dyes under light illumination. The decomposition kinetics of dye molecules by the PES/TiO₂ composite membranes and colloidal TiO₂ NPs have been compared to discuss the photocatalytic efficiency of NPs before and after their immobilization on the polymer membrane.

In this study, the effect of surface deposition of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles at polyethersulfone (PES) microfiltraiton (MF) membrane on humic acid fouling was investigated. The effect was observed as a function of crystal structures of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles and solution chemistries including pH and divalent cation such as calcium. Our results showed clearly that $TiO_2$-deposited membrane could mitigate membrane fouling significantly. However, this effect was observed to be dependent upon crystal structures of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles and solution chemistries. In the absence of calcium, fouling mitigation was less pronounced for both anatase and hybrid $TiO_2$-deposited membrane than for rutile $TiO_2$-deposited membrane while opposite trend was observed after addition of calcium. In the presence of calcium, the adsorption of humic acid to $TiO_2$-deposited membrane can be reduced by electrostatic repulsions between humic acid and $TiO_2$ surface. Addition of calcium provided further beneficial effect on fouling mitigation particularly at higher pH for the anatase $TiO_2$ deposited membrane, implying that both increased hydrophilicity due to $TiO_2$ nanoparticles and negative surface charge of the membrane should affect fouling mitigation. However, rutile $TiO_2$ having more inertness generally than the anatase $TiO_2$ showed relatively robust effect on the fouling mitigation regardless of solution properties.

In this study, physically and chemically stable core-crosslinked amphiphilic polymer (CCAP) nanoparticles were prepared using amphiphilic reactive precursors via soap-free emulsion process. Obtained CCAP nanoparticles were used as templates for synthesis of nanostructured $TiO_2$ nanoparticles. First, CCAP nanoparticles dispersed aqueous solutions were mixed with titanium isopropoxide to prepare stable organic-inorganic hybrid sols, and then obtained sols were spin coated onto glass substrate to prepare hybrid thin films onto glass, and then hybrid thin films were calcinated at various temperature to remove CCAP. Nanostructure of calcinated thin fims were examined by SEM. To study effect of CCAP nanoparticles on nanostructure of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles, the morphology of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles prepared using various CCAP templates was compared with that of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles prepared using conventional organic template, nonionic surfactant, Triton X-100.

The Titanium oxide ($TiO_2$) is an attractive ceramic material which shows non-toxic, high refractive index, catalytic activity and biocompatibility, and can be fabricated at a low cost due to its high chemical stability and large anisotropy. $TiO_2$ nanoparticles have been prepared by sol-gel method. The pH of solution can affect the $TiO_2$ crystallinity during the formation of nanoparticles. The prepared nanoparticles were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, photoluminescence spectroscopy in order to investigate their structural and photoluminescence properties. Through these analysis, the size of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were found to be smaller than 5 nm. As the crystallinity of the nanoparticles increased, the emission of PL in the 550 nm region increased. Therefore, luminescence characteristics can be improved by controlling the crystallinity of the $TiO_2$ nanoparticles.
