Flake-like $LiCoO_2$ nanopowders were fabricated using electrospinning. To investigate their formation mechanism, field-emssion scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were carried out. Among various parameters of electrospinning, we controlled the molar concentration of the precursor and the PVP polymer. When the molar concentration of lithium and cobalt was 0.45 M, the morphology of $LiCoO_2$ nanopowders was irregular and round. For 1.27 M molar concentration, the $LiCoO_2$ nanopowders formed with flake-like morphology. For the PVP polymer, the molar concentration was set to 0.011 mM, 0.026 mM, and 0.043 mM. Irregular $LiCoO_2$ nanopowders were formed at low concentration (0.011 mM), while flake-like $LiCoO_2$ were formed at high concentration (0.026 mM and 0.043 mM). Thus, optimized molar concentration of the precursor and the PVP polymer may be related to the successful formation of flake-like $LiCoO_2$ nanopowders. As a results, the synthesized $LiCoO_2$ nanopowder can be used as the electrode material of Li-ion batteries.

The objectives of this paper are to measure the concentration of $H_2$O/LiBr solution by measuring the electrical conductivity and to study the effect of the solution temperature and the concentration on the electrical conductivity of the solution. The solution temperature ranges $20^{\circ},\;40^{\circ},\;and\; 60^{\circ}$ for a fixed concentration during the experiment. The valid ranges of the concentration are two regions, low concentration region (1~20% of LiBr) and high concentration region (55~66% of LiBr). The results show that the conductivity of the solution increases linearly with increasing the solution temperature while it increases without creasing the concentration lower than about 35% of LiBr and decreases with increasing the concentration higher than 35%. This paper proposes experimental correlations for the concentration as functions of the solution temperature and the concentration with error band of $\pm7$% for the low concentration region and $\pm1$% for the high concentration region, respectively. The experimental correlation can be practically used in the on-line measurement without any sampling of solution from the closed system.

파이로프로세싱의 전해환원공정에서 생산된 금속전환체의 조성은 전해정련공정 운전의 중요한 운전변수인 용융염 중 $UCl_3$의 농도변화에 영향을 미친다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 금속전환체에 함유된 TRU와 RE 원소의 함량 및 금속전환체에 동반되어 전해정련 전해조에 유입될 수 있는 $Li_2O$ 농도가 전해정련 전해조의 $UCl_3$ 농도 변화에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 금속전환체의 TRU 원소와 RE 원소의 농도만을 고려하였을 때 전해정련 운전 batch 수 증가에 따라 $UCl_3$ 농도가 감소하였다. 전해정련 1 campaign(20 batch)를 운전하기 위해서는 $UCl_3$를 3회 이상 추가 보충해야 함을 알 수 있었다. 한편, 금속전환체에 동반되어 전해정련 전해조에 유입되는 $Li_2O$의 유입량 증가에 따라 $UCl_3$ 농도 감소의 영향이 크게 나타났으며, 이에 따라 운전 가능 batch 수가 급격히 감소하게 되어 전해정련 운전에 중요한 운전 변수임을 보여주었다. 이러한 결과는 전해정련 운전 중 $UCl_3$ 농도 유지를 위해 금속전환체에 포함된 TRU 및 RE 원소뿐만 아니라 금속전환체에 동반되어 유입될 가능성이 있는 $Li_2O$의 영향도 고려하여 전해정련 운전모드를 설정하여야 함을 보여주었다.

Hydrogen generation by the hydrolysis of aqueous sodium borohydride $(NaBH_4)$ solutions was studied using IRA-400 anion resin dispersed Pt. Ru catalysts and Lithium Cobalt oxide $(LiCoO_2)$ supported Pt, Ru and PtRu catalysts. The performance of the $LiCoO_2$ supported catalysts is better than the ion exchange resin dispersed catalysts. There is a marked concentration dependence on the performance of the $LiCoO_2$ supported catalysts and the hydrogen generation rate goes down if the borohydride concentration is increased beyond $10\%$. The efficiency of PtRu- $LiCoO_2$ is almost double that of either Ru-$LiCoO_2$ or Pt-$LiCoO_2$ for $NaBH_4$ concentrations up to $10\%$.

Liquid phase epitaxy(LPE)법을 이용하여 ZnO co-doped Er:$LiNbO_3$, 단결정 박막을 $LiNbO_3$ (001) 기판 위에 성장시켰다. ZnO co-doped Er:$LiNbO_3$박막 성장의 초기 융액은 첨가제 $Er_2O_3$ 농도를 1 mol%로 고정시키고 ZnO 농도를 3,5 mol%로 조절하였다. ZnO co-doped Er :$LiNbO_3$박막의 결정성은 $LiNbO_3$ 기판보다 더 우수하였다. ZnO 5mol% 첨가한 경우 박막의 표면에는 수직한 방향과 평행한 방향으로 모두 압축응력이 작용하고 있었다. 또한 ZnO 3mol% 첨가된 Er :$LiNbO_3$박막의 표면은 원래의 $LiNbO_3$기판보다 더 평탄하였다

$MnSO_45H_2O$와 $(NH_4)S_2O_8$의 수열반응으로 1차원 나노로드들이 침상으로 클러스터화된 구조의 $MnO_2$를 제조하고 그 모폴로지와 결정성을 분석하였다. 수열반응의 조건에 따라 ${\alpha}$-, ${\beta}$-, ${\gamma}-MnO_2$ 등의 전구체가 제조될 수 있는데, 고농도 반응물 및 높은 수열합성 온도($150^{\circ}C$)에서 전기화학적 활성이 우수한 나노로드 클러스터 ${\beta}-MnO_2$의 생성을 확인하였다. 또한 리튬화제 $LiC_3H_3O_2{\cdot}2H_2O$의 농도와 열처리 온도를 변화시키면서 $MnO_2$를 리튬화하여 스피넬계 $LiMn_2O_4$를 제조하고 리튬이온전지 양전극으로서의 특성을 조사하였다. 결과적으로 나노로드 클러스터형 ${\beta}-MnO_2$로부터 고농도 리튬화제와 $800^{\circ}C$ 열처리를 통해 제조한 $LiMn_2O_4$가 정방형 스피넬에 가장 가까운 구조임을 확인하였으며, 120 mAh/g의 우수한 초기 방전용량을 나타내었다.

Solubilities (LiBr+$CaC1_2$) in water were measured at temperatures form 267.51 to 306.17K for $CaC1_2$ (LiBr+$CaC1_2$)=0.24 by mole. Experimental data were correlated with polynomial equations. Average absolute deviations between the measured and calculated values were 0.31% at concentration smaller than 60wt% and 0.41% at concentration larger than 60wt%, respectively. Vapor pressures were measured at temperatures from 296.75 to 436.75K and concentrations from 40 to 70wt%. Vapor pressure data were fitted to a Antoine-type equation and average absolute deviation was 2.98%. The P-T-X chart and H-T-X chart of $H_2O$/(LiBr+$CaC1_2$) system were constructed by using the correlation equations of solubility, vaper pressure, and heat capacity. The P-T-X chart indicates that $H_2O$/(LiBr+$CaC1_2$) system has potential as a possible working fluid for air-cooled absorption chillers.

본 연구에서는 리튬 이차 전지의 양극 재료인 $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}]O_2$을 공침법(co-precipitation)을 활용하여 성공적으로 합성하였다. 이때 $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}]O_2$의 금속염 농도를 실험 변수로 하여 합성 조건을 변화 시키면서 금속염 농도 변화로 인한 전지 특성의 영향을 분석하였다. SEM(scanning electron microscope)과 XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) 분석결과 금속염의 농도(2몰/L)가 높을 경우 분말의 균일성과 구조의 결정성이 떨어져 전지 특성이 저하되는 현상이 발생하였다. 균일성과 결정성을 향상시키기 위하여 금속염의 농도(1몰/L)를 줄여 합성 한 결과 입도의 미분이 적고 균일성이 및 구조적 결정성이 증가됨을 확인하였다. 또한 충/방전 용량, C-rate, 사이클 등 전기화학적 특성에서도 상대적으로 우수한 특성을 보였다. 이러한 측정 결과를 바탕으로 $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}]O_2$ 물질의 금속염 농도에 따른 영향을 종합적으로 고찰하였다.

Solubility on $(LiBr+CaCl_2)$ in water has been measured systematically and compared with those of pure LiBr. It has been observed that there exists optimum value of $CaCl_2(LiBr+CaCl_2)$ in solubility when total$(LiBr+CaCl_2)$ concentration is higher than 57wt%. As total concentration increases up to 65wt%, it is found that the optimum value also increases monotonically. From the experimental results, a master plot has been constructed, with which optimum ratio of LiBr to $CaCl_2$ can be found in terms of total concentration. Vapor pressure of $H_2O/(LiBr+CaCl_2)$ solution with optimum contents of $CaCl_2$ has been observed to be changed negligibly at relatiely low temperature. However, as temperature increases, it is found that increasement in vapor pressure is significant.

$LiCoO_{2}$ powders were synthesized at various temperatures using lithium hydroxide and cobalt hydroxide as precursors prepared by precipitation process and freeze-drying. In this study, the$LiCoO_{2}$ samples were synthesized via a solid state reaction with various LiOH concentration between 10 % and 30 % excess. And $LiCoO_{2}$powders were calcined at 600~$800^{\circ}C$ in a short time. Measurements of XRD and SEM were performed to characterize the properties of the prepared materials. The effect of amount of Li ions on the structural change in powder has been examined using the XRD analysis. For the not added excess of LiOH, CoOOH phase presented in the XRD pattern of $LiCoO_{2}$ due to loss of Li ions during firing. The morphology and particle size of the powders were examined using SEM. The obtained powders are high temperature-$LiCoO_{2}$HT-LiCoO$_{2}$) and homogeneous with the range of grain size in the order of hundreds of nanometers. The effects of variation of LiOH concentration on the structural change in powder were investigated using the Rietveld analysis. As an analysis result, c/a is constant by 4.99 on all occasions. Finally, the structure of HT-$LiCoO_{2}$ was simulated by the commercial software $Creius^{2}$(Molecular Simulations, Inc.) from the results of Rietveld analysis.
