본 연구는 방사성 폐액의 처리를 목적으로 화학처리와 한외여과막의 결합공정에 의해서 Cs과 Co이온의 제거 특성을 조사하였다. 실험은 회분식 UF Stirred Cell을 이용하였고, 화학결합제로서 Cs에 대해서는 시안화철구리화합물, 그리고 Co에 대해서는 Polyacrylic Acid(PAA)를 주입하여 Cs이온과 Co이온의 제거 거동을 조사하였다. Cs의 결합특성은 Langmuir Isotherm형태의 식으로 나타내어 평가하였으며, Cs/K$_2$Cu$_3$(Fe(CN)$_{6}$)$_2$의 몰비가 1.5에서 효율적인 조건임을 알 수 있었다. Co의 제거효율은 용액의 pH, PAA및 Co이온의 몰비에 의해서 결정되었다. Co의 제거거동은 리간드와 Co와의 결합,용액의 pH및 Co농도와의 상호작용에 의한 평형관계식에 의해서 평가하였으며, 이때 90%의 제거율을 얻기 위한 조건은 몰비가 2($\beta$=2)이고 pH가 5.6이었다. 이의 결과로부터 Cs과 Co의 동시제거을 위한 화학첨가제의 주입방법에 대한 제거성능을 평가하였다.

The effect of cobalt precursor on the structure of Co supported multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were studied by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). MWCNTs were treated with a mixture of nitric and sulfuric acids and decorated with cobalt and/or cobalt oxides via aqueous impregnation solutions of cobalt nitrate or cobalt acetate followed by reduction in hydrogen. XPS was mainly used to investigate the phase of cobalt on MWCNTs after reduction with $H_2$ flow at $400^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. Higher cobalt-nanoparticle dispersion was found in the MWCNTS prepared via cobalt nitrate decomposition. A typical XPS spectrum of Co 2p showed the peaks at binding energy (BE) values equal to 781 and 797 eV, respectively. It is found that cobalt nitrate supported MWCNTs is more dispersive and have catalytic activity than that of cobalt acetate supported MWCNTs at same preparation condition such as concentration of precursor solution and reduction environment.

In the present study, the focus is on the analysis of carbothermal reduction of the titanium-cobalt-oxygen based oxide powder by solid carbon for the optimizing synthesis process of ultra fined TiC/Co composite powder. The titanium-cobalt-oxygen based oxide powder was prepared by the combination of the spray drying and desalting processes using the titanium dioxide powder and cobalt nitrate as the raw materials. The titanium-cobalt-oxygen based oxide powder was mixed with carbon black, and then this mixture was carbothermally reduced under a flowing argon atmosphere. The changes in the phase structure and thermal gravity of the mixture during carbothermal reduction were analysed using XRD and TGA. The synthesized titanium-cobalt-oxygen based oxide powder has a mixture of $TiO_2$ and $CoTiO_3$. This oxide powder was transformed to a mixed state of titanium car-bide and cobalt by solid carbon through four steps of carbothermal reduction steps with increasing temperature; reduction of $CoTiO_3$ to $TiO_2$ and Co, reduction of $TiO_2$, to the magneli phase($Ti_nO_{2n-1}$, n>3), reduction of the mag-neli phase($Ti_nO_{2n-1}$, n>3) to the $Ti_nO_{2n-1}$(2$\leq$n$\leq$3) phases, and reduction and carburization of the $Ti_nO_{2n-1}$(2$\leq$n$\leq$3) phases to titanium carbide.

In this study, cobalt oxide ($Co_3O_4$)/graphene composites were synthesized through a simple chemical method at various calcination temperatures. We controlled the crystallinity, particle size and morphology of cobalt oxide on graphene materials by changing the annealing temperatures (200, 300, $400^{\circ}C$). The nanostructured $Co_3O_4$/graphene hybrid materials were studied to measure the electrochemical performance through cyclic voltammetry. The $Co_3O_4$/graphene sample obtained at $200^{\circ}C$ showed the highest capacitance of 396 $Fg^{-1}$ at 5 $mVs^{-1}$. The morphological structures of composites were also examined by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Annealing $Co_3O_4$/graphene samples in air at different temperatures significantly changed the morphology of the composites. The flower-like cobalt oxides with higher crystallinity and larger particle size were generated on graphene according to the increase of calcination temperature. A TEM analysis of the composites at $200^{\circ}C$ revealed that nanoscale $Co_3O_4$ (~7 nm) particles were deposited on the surface of the graphene. The improved electrochemical performance was attributed to a combination effect of graphene and pseudocapacitive effect of $Co_3O_4$.

In the present study, the focus is on the synthesis of titanium carbide/cobalt composite powder by the spray thermal conversion process using metallic salt solution as the raw materials. Two types of oxide powders of Ti-Co-O system were prepared by the spray drying of two types of metallic salt solutions : titanium chloride-cobalt nitrate and $TiO_2$ powder-cobalt nitrate solutions. These oxide powders were mixed with carbon black, and then these mixtures were carbothermal reduced under a flowing argon atmosphere. The changes in the phase structure and thermal gravity of the mixtures during carbothermal reduction were analysed using XRD and TG-DTA. In the case of using the titanium chloride-cobalt nitrate solution, it could not be obtained TiC/Co composite powder due to contamination of the impurities during the spray drying of the solution. However, in tile case of using the $TiO_2$ powder-cobalt nitrate scullion, TiC-15 wt. %Co composite powder could be synthesized by the spray thermal conversion process. The synthesized TiC-15 wt. %Co composite powder at 120$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours has average particle size of 150 nm.

[ $LiCoO_2$ ] a cathode material for lithium rechargeable batteries, was prepared using recycled $Co_3O_4$. First, the cobalt hydroxide powders were separated from waste WC-Co hard metal with acid-base chemical treatment, and then the impurities were eliminated by centrifuge method. Subsequently, $Co_3O_4$ powders were prepared by thermal treatment of resulting $Co(OH)_2$. By adding a certain amount of $Li_2CO_3$ and $LiOH{\cdot}H_2O$, the $LiCoO_2$ was obtained by sintering for 10 h in air at $800^{\circ}C$. The synthesized $LiCoO_2$ particles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis.

Redox characteristics of cobalt oxide-based oxygen carriers were tested for chemical-looping combustion. Cobalt oxide was chosen as active metal oxide and $CoAl_2O_4$ was compared with YSZ(yttria-stabilized zirconia) as a binder. Cobalt oxide/$CoAl_2O_4$ was prepared by sol-gel method. Hydrogen fuel was reacted with metal oxide and then the reduced metal was successively oxidized by air. The effects of reaction temperature were measured and the regenerabilies during 10 cycles were examined by a TGA. In regenerability of cobalt oxide/YSZ and cobalt oxide/$CoAl_2O_4$, after they showed above 90% conversion in first reduction, they were stabilized in about 70-75% conversion. From reaction rate constant obtained, the activation energies of cobalt oxide/YSZ in oxidation and reduction were 51.47kJ/mol and 7.71kJ/mol respectively.

Cofacial bis-cobalt tetraphenylporphyrin(Co-TPP) 유도체 화합물들이 수식된 유리질 탄소 전극과 carbon microelectrode을 작업 전극으로 사용하여 여러가지 pH 용액에서 순환 전압전류법 및 시간 전류법에 의해 산소의 환원반응을 조사하였다. 산성용액에서 monomer인 cobalt tetraphenylporphyrin 화합물이 수식된 전극에서 산소의 환원반응경로는 중간 생성물인 H$_2$O$_2$로 가는 2전자 반응으로, dimer인 cofacial bis-cobalt tetraphenylporphyrin 유도체 화합물들이 수식된 전극에서는 최종 생성물인 H$_2$O로 가는 4전자 반응으로 진행되었다. 이와 같은 산소의 환원반응은 전체적으로 비가역적이며 확산지배적인 반응으로 주어졌다. pH 변화에 따른 산소의 환원전위는 pH 13에서 pH 4 까지는 직선관계가 성립하였으나 강한 산성용액에서는 이들 관계가 성립하지 않았다. 산성용액에서 산소의 환원전위는 알몸 유리질 탄소전극에서 보다 monomer Co-TPP 화합물이 수식된 유리질 탄소전극에서는 400 mV만큼, dimer Co-TPP 화합물이 수식된 전극에서는 750 mV 만큼 더 양전위 방향으로 이동되었다.

Reversible trans-cis isomerization of meta-bipyridylazobenzene coordinated to cobalt was achieved by a combination of photoirradiation with a single UV light source and a Co(II)/Co(III) redox reaction. The trans/cis conversion performance was significantly improved in the meta-form compared with the meta-form ligated to cobalt.

Borate 완충용액에서 Co의 부동화 피막의 생성과정(growth kinetics)과 부동화 피막의 전기적 성질을 변전위법, 대 시간 전류법 그리고 단일 주파수 전기화학적 임피던스 측정법으로 조사하였다. 불안정 부동화가 일어나는 낮은 전극전위에서 생성되는 Co의 부동화 피막 $Co(OH)_2$와 CoO로 구성되었으며, 전극전위가 증가하면 산화피막의 조성이 $Co_3O_4$, CoOOH로 변화되었다. 또한 산화피막의 조성은 전극전위와 산화시간에 따라 변하였다. 이 때 생성되는 산화피막은 Mott-Schottky 식이 적용되는 p-형 반도체 성질을 보였다.
