The effects of ZnO coating on the sensing properties of CNT:ZnO based gas sensors were studied for $H_2S$ gas. The nano ZnO sensing materials were grown by hydrothermal reaction method. CNT:ZnO was prepared by ball-mill method. The mole range of nano ZnO coating on CNT surface was from 0 to 10%. The CNT:ZnO gas sensors were fabricated by a screen printing method on alumina substrates. The structural and morphological properties of the CNT:ZnO sensing materials were investigated by XRD, EDS, SEM and TEM. The XRD patterns showed that CNT:ZnO powders with hexagonal structure were grown with (002) dominant peak. The diameter of CNT from TEM was about 28 nm.

Amorphous carbon nanotubes were synthesized by a reaction of benzene, ferrocene and Na mixture in a small autoclave at temperatures as low as $400^{\circ}C$. The resulting carbon nanotubes were short and straight, but their inner hole was filled with residual products. The addition of quartz to the reacting mixture considerably promoted the formation of carbon nanotubes. A careful examination of powder structure suggested that the nanotubes in this process were mainly formed by surface diffusion of carbon atoms at the surface of solid catalytic particles, not by VLS(vapor-liquid-solid) mechanism.

Pitchstone(Volcanic ejecta) reacts with CaO in hot water and increases its sedimentary volume by forming Ca(OH)2 and calcium silicate hydrates. ALC was prepared from the various gelling and curing conditions using the ratio of pitchstone/CaO was 2(CaO/SiO2 mol ratio=0.81), and then the products, crystalline phases and physical properties of ALC with experimental conditions was investigated. The crystalline phase of tobermorite with laths and plate type and the porosity were increased, the thermal conductivity was decreased with increasing gelling temperature and time. But modulus of rupture has maximum value when gelling time was 2 hrs. Othwrwise the bulk density nearly unchanged with increasing curing temperature, but the modulus of rupture was increased.

High flexible lightweight composites containing tobermorite as a main mineral is produced using various amorphous silicates, lime, cement and fibers. Here, Mechanical properties of the composites were studied by observing microstructures of hydrates and fibers. Amorphous silicates having better hydraulicity retarded the crystallization of tobermorite due to better formation of C-S-H gel in water bath curing, but, difficult conversion from C-S-H gel to tobermorite in hydrothermal reaction. In the low molar ratio of CaO/SiO2 (0.67), faster crystalization was observed dued to more impurities such as Al2O3 alkali, resulting in improving mechanical properties due to small crystal size and many contact points. It was identified that a lot of calcium silicate hydates formed at surface of pulps increase bonding strength and the crack-resistance of matrix in the composites, but decrease hardness and compressive strength. The choice of amorpous silicates having better hydraulicity, low CaO/SiO2 adding each fibers bellow about 5% in the raw mixs and lower molding pressure should be needed at improve mechanical properties of composites.

A study on the synthesis of zeolite from bituminous coal ESP fly ash as a raw material, which was emitted from the power plant, was carried out to reduce environmental problems and reuse of the industrial wastes. Bituminous coal fly ash was used as the source of silica and alumina. Zeolite was synthesized by hydrothermal reaction in aqueous NaOH solution with sodium aluminate as additive. The objective of this study is to elucidate the effect of several experimental variables on the synthesis of zeolite. The effects of preroasting temperature, mixing speed, leaching alkalinity, and molar ratio of Na$_{2}$O/SiO$_{2}$ and SiO$_{2}$/Al$_{2}$O of the products were investigated. The synthesized zeolite was proved to be NaA, which is known as 4A type, by comparing with SEM images, and X-ray diffraction analysis. And also we know that the transformation of zeolite A take places into other types of zeolites, i.e. Hydroxysodalite, zeolite P, with the variation of leaching alkalinity.

In this work, highly porous carbons were prepared by chemical activation of carbonized biomass-derived aerogels. These aerogels were synthesized from watermelon flesh using a hydrothermal reaction. After carbonization, chemical activation was conducted using potassium hydroxide to enhance the specific surface area and microporosity. The micro-structural properties and morphologies were measured by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. The specific surface area and microporosity were investigated by $N_2$/77 K adsorption-desorption isotherms using the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller method and Barrett-Joyner-Halenda equation, respectively. Hydrogen storage capacity was dependent on the activation temperature. The highest capacity of 2.7 wt% at 77 K and 1 bar was obtained with an activation temperature of $900^{\circ}C$.

A strategy for the synthesis of more stable and large periodic mesoporous organo-silica materials has been developed for the 2D hexagonal mesoporous organosilica by the core-shell approach using nonionic PEO-PLGA-PEO triblock copolymer templates. The BET surface area of the solvent-extracted hexagonal mesoporous organosilica is estimated to be 1,016 ㎡/g and the pore volume, pore diameter, and wall thickness are 1.447 ㎤/g, 65 Å, and 43 Å, respectively. More hydrophobic PLGA block than the PPO block used for templates of mesoporous silica proves to be quite effective in confining the organosilicates within the PEO phase. Reaction temperature and acid concentration of an initial solution as well as the chemical nature of the bloc k copolymer templates also demonstrate to be important experimental parameters for ordered organosilica mesophase. Moreover, the mesoporous organosilicas prepared with the PEO-PLGA-PEO block templates maintain their structural integrity for up to 25 days in boiling water at 100℃. The mesoporous materials with large pores and high hydrothermal stability prepared in this study has a potential for many applications.

The hydrothermal reaction of Co(NO₃)₂ㆍ6H₂O, trans-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl) ethylene (bipyen), and a bent 4,4'-oxybis(benzoic acid) (OBCH₂) gave a 2-D coordination polymer [Co(OBC)(bipyen)]ㆍH₂O(1). X-ray structure determination revealed that polymer 1 has a 2-D network based on 50-membered rectangular grids, each of which has the dimension of 13.74×13.20Å.

Three different kinds of hydroxyapatites (HAPs) having different sizes and compositions are prepared by hydrothermal and molten salt syntheses. Using the ion exchange reactions, ruthenium ions are incorporated on the surface of HAPs. The crystallinity, morphology and ruthenium contents are investigated by XRD, SEM, TEM and ICP. We found that smaller size of HAP having large amounts of ruthenium under ion exchange reaction shows higher catalytic activity for aerobic oxidation of alcohols.

Graphene/Ni-Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) hybrid materials were synthesized by a hydrothermal reaction. Hexagonal Ni-Al LDH particles nucleated and grew on graphene sheets, thus preventing restacking of the graphene sheets and aggregation of the Ni-Al LDH nanoparticles upon drying. Electrode made from the graphene/Ni-Al LDH hybrid materials showed a substantial improvement in electrochemical capacitance relative to those made with pure Ni-Al LDH nanoparticles. In addition, the graphene/Ni-Al LDH hybrid composite materials showed remarkable stability after 4000 cycles with over 100% capacitance retention. These materials are thus very promising for use in electrochemical capacitor electrodes.
