In the development of Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell, one of the serious problems is the dissolution of cathode material. Therefore, the development of the alternative cathode which is stable in molten carbonate is needed. In this research, the licoo, was chosen as alternative cathode material. $LiCoO_2$ powder was synthesized by high temperature calcination method and by citrate sol-gel method. And its structure and physical iharacteristics were analyzed by XRD, 1 R, TCA and porosimeter. The conductivity and solubility of $LiCoO_2$ electrode were also measured. Homogeneous $LiCoO_2$ Powder was obtained by citrate sol-Rel method at 445$^{\circ}C$, however, obtained above 75$0^{\circ}C$ by high temperature calcination method. Homogeneous particle size distribution and fine powder were obtained by the citrate sol-Rel method. $LiCoO_2$ electrode showed higher electric conductivity ($1.7 $\Omega$^{-1}cm^{-1}$) than NiO (0.1 $\Omega$^{-9} cm^{-1}) at $650^{\circ}C$. The solubilities of $LiCoO_2$ electrode in electrolyte were varies 0.6 to 1.0 ppm during 200 hours. So, the solubilities of $LiCoO_2$ were much lower than that of NiO.

The sol-gel technique has been studied to fabricate a homogeneous Fe-Mo/MgO catalyst. Ambient effects (air, Ar, and $H_2$) on thermal decomposition of the citrate precursor have been systematically investigated to fabricate an Fe-Mo/MgO catalyst. Severe agglomeration of metal catalyst was observed under thermal decomposition of citrate precursor in air atmosphere. Ar/$H_2$ atmosphere effectively restricted agglomeration of bimetallic catalyst and formation of highly-dispersed Fe-Mo/MgO catalyst with high specific surface-area due to the formation of Fe-Mo nanoclusters within MgO support. High-quality thin-multiwalled carbon nanotubes (t-MWCNTs) with uniform diameters were achieved on a large scale by catalytic decomposition of methane over Fe-Mo/MgO catalyst prepared under Ar-atmosphere. The produced t-MWCNTs had outer diameters in the range of 4-8 nm (average diameter ~6.6 nm) and wall numbers in the range of 4-7 graphenes. The as-synthesized t-MWCNTs showed product yields over 450% relative to the utilized Fe-Mo/MgO catalyst, and indicated a purity of about 85%.

The electrochemical properties of LixCoyNi1-yO2 compounds (y=0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1.0) prepared by citrate sol-gel method have been investigated. The LixCoyNi1-yO2 compounds were annealed at 850 ℃ for 20 h after preheating at 650 ℃ for 6 h, in air. The x-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns for LixCoyNi1-yO2 have shown that these compounds have a well developed layered structure (R&bar{3} m). From the scanning electron microscopy of LixCoyNi1-yO2, particle size was estimated less than 5 μm. The Li//LixCoyNi1-yO2 electrochemical cell consists of Li metal anode and 1 M LiClO4-propylene carbonate (PC) solution as the electrolyte. The differences in intercalation rate of the LixCoyNi1-yO2 in the first charge/discharge cycle were less than 0.05 e-. The first discharge capacities of LixCoO2 and LixCo0.3Ni0.7O2 were ∼130 mAh/g and ∼160 mAh/g, respectively.

In recent times, much effort has been concentrated on trivalent rare-earth ions activated ceramics or oxide phosphors to develop display industries due to their promising applications in optoelectronic devices and field-emission displays. To prepare efficient phosphors, citrate sol-gel method is one of the best synthetic methods. Green and blue emissive CaLa2ZnO5:RE3+ nanocrystalline materials are synthesized by a citrate sol-gel method. After the samples annealing at $1100^{\circ}C$, morphological and structural properties are investigated by scanning electron microscope images and X-ray diffraction patterns, respectively. At low electron beam voltage of <5 kV, the visible photoluminescence properties are obtained. Various concentrations of the RE3+ ions exhibited their characteristic emission peaks at different excitation wavelengths, respectively. Similarly, at high electron beam anodic voltage, the cathodoluminescence properties are studied as a function of acceleration voltage and filament current. The chromaticity coordinates are calculated for the optimized CaLa2ZnO5 nanocrystalline luminescent materials.

This paper deals with the 0 groups of citrate utilizing variants of Escherichia coli ($Cit^+$ E. coli) isolated from cattle, the production of colicin, hemolysin, K99 antigen, heat stable enterotoxin, and the isolation of plasmid DNA. Among 42 $Cit^+$ E. coli, 12 strains were 020, 9 strains 08, 5 strains 045, 3 strains 0115, 1 strain 064, 1 strain 0139 and remaining strains(11) were untypable. Thirty-nine(81.3%) out of 48 $Cit^+$ E. coli were produced colicin and 13(27.0%) were produced hemolysin. Of 12 $Cit^+$ E. coli bearing K99 antigen, 6(50.0%) were produced heat stable enterotoxin. In gel electrophoresis for the isolation of plasmid DNA, the number of plasmids varied from 1 to 7 in 10 $Cit^+$ E. coli. It's molecular weight ranged from 2 to 50 Mdalton, and 50 Mdalton plasmid was commonly existed in all strains.

Since the 1980's, several kinds of inactivated bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) vaccines have been used to immunize domestic animals such as cattle and goat in Korea. Immunogenicity of the BVDV vaccines has been checked by the Korean Veterinary Authority using laboratory animals. In this study, we applied a molecular method to investigate the genetic characterization of the BVDV genes in six commercial inactivated BVDV vaccines, and determined the efficiency of two extraction reagents (i.e., sodium citrate or isopropyl myristate) to separate the vaccine antigens from the antigen/adjuvant complexes. Six partial non-coding regions (288 bp) were successfully amplified with specific primer sets, which demonstrated that sodium citrate is more efficient in extracting viral RNA from inactivated gel vaccines than isopropyl myristae. In addition, we identified the virus strains from the vaccines by analyzing the nucleotide sequences of the 5' non-coding region (NCR) of BVDV. The nucleotide similarity of the partial 5' NCR ranged from 95.1 to 100% among BVDV vaccine strains, respectively, indicating that a few manufacturers used different BVDV strains to produce their vaccines.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of reaction pH conditions and hardener types on the reactivity, chemical structure and adhesion performance of UF resins. Three different reaction pH conditions, such as traditional alkaline-acid (7.5 → 4.5), weak acid (4.5), and strong acid (1.0), were used to synthesize UF resins which were cured by adding three different hardeners (ammonium chloride, ammonium citrate, and zinc nitrate) to measure adhesion strength. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (¹³C-NMR) spectroscopies were employed to study chemical structure of the resin prepared under three different reaction pH conditions. Adhesion strength of the resins cured with three different hardeners was determined with lap shear specimens in tension. The gel time of UF resins decreased with an increasing in the amount of both ammonium chloride and ammonium citrate added in the resins. However, the gel time increased for zinc nitrate. Both FT-IR and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopies showed that the strong reaction pH condition produce uronic structures in UF resin, while both alkaline-acid and weak acid conditions produce quite similar chemical species in the resins. The maximum adhesion strength was occurred with the resin prepared under strong acid pH condition. However, this study indicated that the weak acid reaction condition provide a balance between increasing resin reactivity and improving adhesion strength of UF resin. The measurement of formaldehyde emission from the panels bonded with the UF resins prepared is planned for future work.

High Tc superconducting with a BiSrCaCuO was prepared by the citrate method. The solid precursor produced by the dehydration of the gel at $120^{\circ}C$ for 12h is not in the a morphous state as expected but in a crystalline state. X -ray diffraction peaks of nearly the same angular position as the peaks of high Tc phase were observed in the precursor.

The preparation of Y-doped $SrZrO_3$powder by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis was investigated as a representative system, in order to produce fine, single phase multicomponent oxide powders. A precursor solution containing metal nitrates, citric acid and ethylene glycol was atomized glycol was atomized with an ultrasonic spray nozzle. Gel particles formed by organic functional groups were pyrolyzed and subsequently calcined at $800^{\circ}C$ to obtain well-crystallized, single perovskite phase. Most of large particles exhibited macroscopic pores and weak agglomeration between primary particles. However, strong agglomeration was observed in the surfaces of large particles. The effect of the microstructures of these particles on size reduction to submicron particles was described.
