Regeneration of carbon-deposited Ni catalyst used for hydrogenation reaction was studied. Deposited carbon was removed by oxidation with various concentrations of oxygen. Activity of the catalysts was tested on aniline hydrogenation as a model reaction. When a carbon-deposited catalyst was treated under oxygen atmosphere, the specific surface area of the catalyst increased and then decreased with the increase of treatment temperature. The treatment temperature which gives maximum specific surface area increased with the decrease of oxygen concentration. Pore size of the support was decreased and sintering of nickel particles was more significant with the increase of oxygen concentration. The catalyst treated under 5 % oxygen concentration recovered its catalytic activity up to 90 % of the initial value, but the treatment under 20 % oxygen concentration gave no significant increase of the catalytic activity. Catalytic activity increased with treatment time when the catalyst was treated under 5 % oxygen concentration, but nearly constant after 1 hour.

고체산화물 연료전지(SOFC)에서 사용되는 연결재의 주 기능은 각 단위 셀의 연료극과 다음 셀의 공기극을 전기적으로 연결하여, 공기와 사용연료의 분리역할을 하기 위하여 사용된다. SOFC용 연결재는 다른 구성요소 소재보다, 높은 전자 전도성, 낮은 이온전도성, 우수한 기계 적강도가 요구되며, SOFC는 고온에서 작동되기 때문에, 상온에서 작동온도까지 다른 요소 소재들과 유사한 열팽창계수와 물리, 화학적으로 안정성이 요구된다. 현재 연결재 제조기술은 EVD, CVD, plasma spraying, tape casting 등 다양하게 연구되고 있으며, 본 연구는 세라믹 연결재 증착방법 중 저렴한 비용으로 대량 생산이 용이한 습식법(dip coaling)을 적용하여, 연료극 지지체식 flat-tube형 고체산화물 연료전지의 지지체를 위해 세라믹 연결재를 제조하고, 그 특성을 연구하였다. 세라믹 연결재로써 선정한 합성조성은 LaCr $O_3$에 Ca이 치환 고용된 L $a_{0.6}$C $a_{0.41}$Cr $O_3$으로 pechini법으로 합성하였다. 합성된 조성은 100$0^{\circ}C$에서 5시간 하소후 가속 Ball Milling하여 0.5$\mu\textrm{m}$의 평균입자크기를 얻을 수 있었다. XRD 상분석결과 perovskite상 (L $a_{1-x}$ Ca/x/Cr $O_3$)과 CaCr $O_4$를 얻을 수 있었다. slurry를 제조하여 막의 밀착성을 증진시키기 위해 sand blasting시킨 flat tube지지체에 진공펌프를 이용하여 소재내부와 외부의 압력차로 dip coating한 후, 140$0^{\circ}C$로 소결 하였다. coating 결과 박리현상은 없었으나, 표면과 단면의 SEM분석결과 다소 porous한 박막층이 형성되었으며, Ca이온이 지지체로 permeation되는 현상이 발생하였다. 이와 같은 결과로부터 보다 치밀한 박막생성을 위해, slurry 제조조건을 변화시켰으며, Ca이온의 migration을 막기 위해 barrier layer를 이용하였다 완전 소결된 지지체는 가스투과도와 전기전도도측정을 통하여 특성을 평가하였다.였다.다.

This study is focused on the effect of the surface properties for the post electrode, which is used in pad formation consisted of SMT such as IC, passive component, combined with fired LTCC substrate, We carried out the surface microstructure of sintered electrode and the basic reliability evaluations with sample fired by microwave sintering to solve the problems occurred in post electrode by electric sintering. We evaluated surface densification status of post electrode according to various conditions of microwave sintering. In additions, it is obtained strong effect on blister improvement of post electrode because of over-sintering and the insufficient out gas in bum out process. As a result of adhesion strength, we confirmed $44.3N/mm^2$ in microwave sintering and $34.5N/mm^2$ in electric sintering, respectively. This result will be used for the basic reliability test. Finally, microwave sintering seems to be economic in process time with 30 min compared to electric sintering with 10 hr. In terms of Mass production and efficiency, microwave sintering are excepted to be higher than electric sintering.

Effect of glass addition on the low-temperature sintering and microwave dielectric properties of $BaTi_4O_9$-based ceramics were studied to develop the materials for the functional substrate of low-temperature co-fired ceramics. When 10 wt% of glass was added, sufficient densification was obtained and the relative density more than 98% was reached at the sintering temperature of$875{\circ}C$. The microwave dielectric properties were k=32, Q＊f=9000 GHz, ${ au}_f$=10 ppm/${\circ}C$. As the amount of glass increased, phase decompositions from $BaTi_4O_9;to;BaTi_5O_{11};and;Ba_4Ti_{13}O_{30}$ was observed.

The effect of substrate surface roughness and sintering temperature on the adhesion strength of Ag-based thick film conductors formed on AlN substrates with excellent thermal conductivity was studied. The adhesion strength of the thick-film conductor manufactured using an AlN substrate having a surface roughness (R_a) of 0.5 was higher than that of a thick-film conductor manufactured using a substrate having a surface roughness greater or smaller than this. In the case of a substrate with a surface roughness of less than 0.5, the contact area between the Ag thick film conductor and the substrate was relatively smaller than that of a substrate with a surface roughness of 0.5, resulting in a lower adhesive strength. On the other hand, when a substrate having a surface roughness of more than 0.5 was used, it was found that the conductor film was not completely adhered to the substrate, and as a result, it was found that the adhesive strength was small. In addition, it was found that the surface smoothness of the Ag-based thick film conductor film obtained by sintering at 850℃ was the best compared to the smoothness of the conductor film obtained by sintering at different sintering temperatures, and as a result, it was found that the adhesive strength of the conductor film was the highest.

Ultrafine TEX>$Al_2O_3$ powders were prepared from $AlCl_3$ and $Al_2(SO_4)_3$3 by using inductively coupled plasma (lCP) of ultrahigh temperature (above 5000 K) in heat source. The prepared $Al_2O_3$ powders had ${\alpha} - group ({\alpha}, {wdelta} ;and; {\theta})$ phase, a narrow size distribution and around 20 nm in meansize. It could be suggested that gas - solid reaction growth and interparticle sintering occured at the center of ICP tail flame (X = 500 mm) through the results of deposited aggregates - flock, whisker and platy on MgO polycrystal plate. And the formation mechanism of $Al_2O_3$ powders In spray - ICP reactor were described from upper results.

During the development of the iridium catalyst for domestic production, the catalyst failure, loss, sintering phenomena are observed by high pressure and temperature. By these abnormal failure of catalyst bed, the performance of thruster is degraded. To figure out the detail phenomena on the damaged catalyst bed, a numerical analysis code is developed by assuming the catalyst bed as an one dimensional porous media. The numerical analysis code is validated with experiment data. Thereby, resulting physical phenomena are examined by considering the variation of catalyst bed characteristics incurred by catalyst granule failure. Through these numerical analyses we figure out the effect of the catalyst loss on the decomposition of hydrazine and ammonia.

We have studied magnetoelectric effect with cobalt ferrite-Pb(Zr, Ti) $O_3$ composites made by solid state reaction. The maximum magnetoelectric voltage coefficient, $(dE/ dH)_{max}$, increased with longer sintering time and higher volume fraction of the cobalt ferrite. The magnetic field for $(dE/ dH)_{max}$ became lower with increasing the sintering time and decreasing the volume fraction of the cobalt ferrite. The phenomena were explained in terms of grain size change, mechanical coupling efficiency, easiness of magnetization and polarization. We obtained the highest magnetoelectric voltage coefficient of 0.174V/cm-Oe, which is about 30% higher than the best value reported.

금속산화물을 이용한 2단계 산화/환원 반응은 GTL, CTL 의 반응원료인 합성가스 및 수소 생산기술이다. 이 기술은 메탄을 환원제로 사용함으로써 비교적 저온에서 산화/환원 반응을 할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 하지만 반복 사이클의 시연에서 금속산화물의 소결현상으로 인한 활성저하가 이 기술의 문제점 중의 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 2.5 kW Xenon arc lamp 가 설치된 solar simulator를 사용 하였으며, 무기물 다공성 폼 (SiC foam)및 유기물 다공성 폼 (Ni, Cufoam)에 $CeO_2/ZrO_2$ 를 코팅하여 연속적인 합성가스 및 수소 생산 가능성을 알아보았다. 반응 전 후의 $CeO_2/ZrO_2$ 의 결정 구조를 SEM 과 XRD 를 통해 분석하였다.
