$Na-ZnCl_2$ battery, which operates as the same mechanism of $Na-NiCl_2$ battery using solid-electrolyte, is able to reduce its material cost by 40 % comparing to the $Na-NiCl_2$ battery. It has been known that the $Na-ZnCl_2$ battery produces $Na_2ZnCl_4$ as an intermediate phase during charge/discharge process. Therefore, the redox process is divided into four steps having the voltage range of 1.92~2.13 V. However, effects of the critical factors such as the composition of cathode materials, depth of charge and discharge, and additives have not been reported yet. We examined the effect of the Zn/NaCl ratios and revealed that its optimum ratio was in the range of 1.3~1.7.

$Zn(BH_4)_2$ was prepared by milling $ZnCl_2$ and $NaBH_4$ in a planetary ball mill in an Ar atmosphere, and XRD analysis, SEM observation, FT-IR analysis, DTA, and TGA were performed for synthesized $Zn(BH_4)_2$ samples. 90 wt% $MgH_2$+1.67 wt% $Zn(BH_4)_2(+NaCl)$+5 wt% Ni+1.67 wt% Ti+1.67 wt% Fe (named $90MgH_2+1.67Zn(BH_4)_2(+NaCl)$+5Ni+1.67Ti+1.67Fe) samples were also prepared by milling in a planetary ball mill in an $H_2$ atmosphere. The gas absorption and release properties of the $Zn(BH_4)_2(+NaCl)$ and $90MgH_2+1.67Zn(BH_4)_2(+NaCl)_2(+NaCl)$+5Ni+1.67Ti+1.67Fe samples were investigated. An FT-IR analysis showed that $Zn(BH_4)_2$ formed in the $Zn(BH_4)_2(+NaCl)$ samples prepared by milling $ZnCl_2$ and $NaBH_4$. At the first cycle at $320^{\circ}C$, $90MgH_2+1.67Zn(BH_4)_2(+NaCl)$+5Ni+1.67Ti+1.67Fe absorbed 2.95 wt% H for 2.5 min and 4.93 wt% H for 60 min under 12 bar $H_2$, and released 1.46 wt% H for 10 min and 4.57 wt% H for 60 min under 1.0 bar $H_2$.

본 연구에서 유도결합 플라즈마 식각 장치외 $BCl_3/Ar/Cl_2$ 가스 혼합비를 이용하여 ZnO 박막을 식각 하였을 때, 식각 된 ZnO 박막의 표면 반응에 관하여 관찰하였다. ZnO 박막의 식각 실험 조건은 RF 전력 700 W, 직류바이어스 전압 - 150 V, 공정 압력 15 mTorr로 고정하였고, $Cl_2/(Cl_2+BCl_3+Ar)$ 가스 혼합비를 변경하면서 식각 실험을 수행하였다. $Cl_2$ 가스가 3 sccm 일 때, ZnO 박막의 식각속도는 53 nm/min으로 가장 높았으며, 이때 ZnO 박막에 대한 $SiO_2$의 선택비는 0.89 이었다. 식각된 ZnO 박막의 표면은 XRD (X-ray diffraction)와 AFM(atomic force microscopy)를 이용하여 결정상의 변화와 표면의 거칠기를 분석하였다. AFM 분석 결과에서 Ar, $BCl_3$와 $Cl_2$ 플라즈마를 이용하여 식각된 시료의 표면 거칠기 근 값이 식각전의 시료나 $BCl_3/Ar/Cl_2$ 플라즈마로 식각된 시료보다 큰 것을 확인하였다. 이는 식각된 시료에서의 Zn 양의 감소나 비휘발성 식각 잔류물에 의한 영향으로 판단된다. SIMS(secondary ion mass spectrometery) 분석을 통해 검증 하였다.

In this paper, with water-LiCl-$CaCl_2-Zn(NO_3)_2$ mixture which utilizes solar energy at the evaporator heat source, a thermodynamic analysis was performed to provide design data for a double-effect absorption heating system. A comparative study of the water-LiCl-$CaCl_2-Zn(NO_3)_2$ mixture against the water-LiBr pair was conducted by a computer simulation. The computer simulation is based on mass, material and heat balance equations for each part of the system. Coefficients of performance and flow ratios for effects of different operating temperatures are investigated. It is found that the heating COP is higher for the water-LiCl-$CaCl_2-Zn(NO_3)_2$ mixture than for the water-LiBr pair, and FR is lower for the former.

In this study, we have synthesized $ZnGa_2O_4$:Mn,X powder doped with Mn, MnO, $MnF_2$ and $MnCl_2$, low voltage green emitting phosphor, in vacuum atmosphere. From PL spectra, the intensity of the emission peak, the brightness with coactivator show that $ZnGa_2O_4$:Mn,Cl > $ZnGa_2O_4$:Mn,F > $ZnGa_2O_4$:Mn,O > $ZnGa_2O_4$:Mn. These improvement of the brightness are caused by the increase of the concentration of $Mn^{2+}$ ion. In case of $ZnGa_2O_4$:Mn,Cl and ZnGa$_2$O$_4$:Mn,F, the brightness is enhanced much more, which is owed to the decrease of defect of host material. For $ZnGa_2O_4$:Mn,Cl phosphor fabricated with optimized condition, the decay time becomes short from 30 ms of the $ZnGa_2O_4$:Mn and $ZnGa_2O_4$:Mn,O to 6 ms and the brightness of CL at 1 kV, 1 mA is 60 cd/$m^2$.

Chloride-based fluxes such as NaCl-KCl are used in the refining of Al melt. The vapor pressure of the chloride is one of the fundamental pieces of information required for such processes, and is generally high at elevated temperatures. In order to measure the vapor pressure for chlorides, the apparatus for the transpiration method was assembled in the present study. The vapor pressure of $ZnCl_2$ and $FeCl_2$, which is related with the process of aluminum refining and the recovery of useful elements from iron and steel industry by-products, was also measured. In the measurement of vapor pressure by the transpiration method, the powder of $ZnCl_2$ or $FeCl_2$ in a alumina boat was loaded in the uniform zone of the furnace with a stream of Ar. The weight loss of $ZnCl_2$ and $FeCl_2$ after holding was measured by changing the flow rate of Ar gas (10 sccm -230 sccm), and the partial pressures of $ZnCl_2$ and $FeCl_2$ were calculated. The partial pressures within a certain range were found to be independent of the flow rate of Ar at different temperatures. The vapor pressures were measured in the temperature range of 758-901K for $ZnCl_2$ and 963-983K for $FeCl_2$. The measured results agreed well with those in the literature.

Galvanic corrosion tests of Zn/steel couples were conducted in 1 M NaCl and $1M\;MgCl_2$ solutions to investigate the impact of magnesium ion on corrosion behavior of the couples. Two types of Zn/steel couples were used for measurements of open circuit potential (OCP) and galvanic current. From the results of OCP transient of Zn/steel couples, the corrosion potential in $1M\;MgCl_2$ was a more positive value than that in 1 M NaCl during the sacrificial dissolution of Zn. However, earlier increase of OCP of the couples in $1M\;MgCl_2$ solution indicates that the sacrificial dissolution rate of Zn in $1M\;MgCl_2$ was enhanced more than that in 1 M NaCl, agreeing with the results on transients of galvanic current. This result is due to that cathodic reaction on the steel surface of the Zn/steel couple was enhanced in $1M\;MgCl_2$ by the occurrence of hydrogen evolution reaction.

Retardation effect of heavy metals in soils caused by adsorption onto the surfaces of solids particles is well known phenomenon. In this study, we investigated the retardation effect on the mobility of a Zn in a sandy soil by conducting batch and column tests. The column test consisted of monitoring the concentrations of effluent versus time known as a breakthrough curve (BTC). We used NaCl and ZnCl$_2$ solutions with the concentration of 10 g/L as a tracer, and injected them respectively into the inlet boundary of the soil sample as a square pulse type, and monitored the effluent concentrations at the exit boundary under a steady state condition using an EC-meter and ICP-AES. The batch test was conducted based on the standard procedure of equilibrating fine fractions collected from the soil with various initial ZnCl$_2$ concentrations, and analysis of Zn ions in the equilibrated solutions using ICP-AES. The results of column test showed that i) the peak concentration of ZnCl$_2$analyzed by ICP was far less than that of either NaCl or bulk electrical conductivity and ⅱ) travel times of peak concentrations for two tracers were more less identical. The relatively low concentration of Zn can be explained by ion exchange between Zn and other cations, and possible precipitation of Zn in the form of Zn(OH)$_2$due to high pH range (7.0∼7.9) of the effluent. The identical result of travel times of peak concentrations indicates that the retardation effect is not present in the soil. The only way to describe the prominent decrease of Zn ion was to introduce decay or sink coefficient in the CDE model to account for irreversible decrease of Zn ions in the aqueous phase.

The influence of ZnCl2 in portland cement hydration was studied. The hydration reaction was progressed with ZnCl2 solution to observe the adiabatic hydration exothermic and hydration products. To compare with cement hydration, Ca(OH)2 solution reacted with ZnCl2 was carried out. The addition of ZnCl2 solution to the portland cement was retarded hydration quantitatively. Because ZnO which was produced in certain pH adsorbed with unhydrated cement made retarded the hydration reaction.
