In this work, manganese dioxide ($Mn_3O_4$)/carbon black (CB) composites (Mn-CBs) were prepared by an in situ coating method as electrical fillers and the effect of the Mn-CBs on the electrical performance of activated carbon (AC)-based electrodes was investigated. Structural features of Mn-CBs produced via in situ coating using a $KMnO_4$ solution were confirmed by XRD and TEM images. The electrical performances, including cv curves, charge-discharge behaviors, and specific capacitance of the ACs/Mn-CBs, were determined by cyclic voltammograms. It was found that the composites of $Mn_3O_4$ and CBs were successfully formed by in situ coating method. ACs/Mn-CBs showed higher electrical performance than that of AC electrodes fabricated with conventional CBs due to the pesudocapacitance reaction of manganese oxides in the aqueous electrolyte. Consequently, it is anticipated that the incorporation of $Mn_3O_4$ into CBs could facilitate the utilization of CBs as electrical filler, leading to enhanced electrochemical performance of AC electrodes for supercapacitors.

A method is described for the determination of the Po nuclides in a water sample. After the Po nuclides were purified from interfering elements in a water sample using a manganese dioxide precipitation followed by a solvent extraction method, the Po nuclides were deposited onto the silver plate. A large volume of the water sample was effectively pretreated with manganese dioxide precipitation method. To determine the optimum conditions for plating Po, the effects of the pH, volume, temperature and time on the Po deposition were investigated in hydrochloric acid solution. The investigated determination method of Po nuclides with solvent extraction was applied to a tap water sample.

This paper describes fabrication of a micro cell counter integrated with an oxygen micropump and counting experiment with Sephadex G-25 beads ($70{\sim}100\;{\mu}m$). The pumping part consisted of a microheater, catalyst (manganese dioxide) enveloped with paraffin, hydrogen peroxide, and microchannel, and the counting part consisted of collimated light, a microwindow, and a phototransistor including an external circuit. The micropump generated oxygen gas by decomposing hydrogen peroxide with manganese dioxide, which was initiated by melting the paraffin with the microheater, and pumped beads in the microchannel. When the beads passed the microwindow, they shaded the collimated light and changed the illumination on the phototransistor, which caused the current variation in the circuit. The signals, according to the bead size, reached up to 22 mV with noise level of 2 mV during 50 seconds and the numbers of peaks were analyzed by magnitude.

The concrete aggregate generates carbon dioxide in production but its demanding is gradually increased in accordance with the depletion of natural resources. Therefore we evaluated compatibility and basic physical properties of Silicon manganese slag generated in iron production as an applicable concrete aggregate. In our test, the silicon maganese slag shows 2.8g/㎥ of density in 10mm of maximum particle size similar to a natural aggregate, and its absorption rate was 0.3% similar to the electric furnace slag. Unit volume weight and ratio of absolute volume was respectively 2,001㎏/㎥ and 51%. Strength properties of Silicon manganese slag will be evaluated with further studies and experiments.

A manganese dioxide (MnO₂) layer and zinc (Zn) layer are used as the cathode and the anode to develop filmtype manganese battery, in which a stack of a MnO₂ layer, gel electrolyte, and Zn layer are sandwiched between two plastic layers. This paper describes the chemical equation of swelling control upon the film-type manganese battery. We examined the reduction of hydrogen formation, by using calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)₂ as an additive in the electrolyte of film-type manganese battery. The phenomena or an effect of reduced hydrogen gas was proven by cyclic voltammogram, X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), and volume of hydrogen formation. The amount of H₂ gas generation in the presence of Ca²⁺ ion was reduced from 4.81 to 4.15 cc/g-zinc (14%), and the corrosion of zinc electrode in the electrolyte was strongly inhibited as time passed.

여과공정에서 망간제거특성을 고찰하기 위하여 모래, 망간사 등의 4가지 여재를 사용한 여과실험이 실시되었다. 여과속도는 123 m/d였고, 칼럼당 유입량은 $3.9m^3/d$이었다. 실험기간은 약 1년이었으며, 실험기간 동안 여재별로 이산화망간 부착량, 탁도제거율, 망간제거율, 유기물제거율 등을 고찰하였다. 평균 망간농도 0.208 mg/L의 여과지 유입수(잔류염소 1.0 mg/L)를 사용하여 여과실험한 결과 모래+망간사 칼럼은 98.9%, 망간사칼럼은 99.2%의 망간제거율을 보였다. 기존 모래여과지를 망간제거를 위해 사용할 경우 여층의 전부를 망간사로 교체하지 않고 일부만 교체하여도 망간제거에 충분한 효과가 나타나는 것으로 조사되었다.

Manganese dioxide ($MnO_2$) is one of the most important cathode materials used in both aqueous and non-aqueous batteries. The $MnO_2$ polymorph that is used for lithium primary batteries is synthesized either by electrolytic (EMD-$MnO_2$) or chemical methods (CMD-$MnO_2$). Commonly, electrolytic manganese dioxide (EMD) is used as a cathode mixture material for dry-cell batteries, such as a alkaline batteries, zinc-carbon batteries, rechargeable alkaline batteries, etc. The characteristics of lithium/manganese-dioxide primary cells fabricated with EMD-$MnO_2$ powders as cathode were compared as a function of the parameters of a manufacturing process. The flexible primary cells were prepared with EMD-$MnO_2$, active carbon, and poly vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) binder (10 wt.%) coated on an Al foil substrate. A cathode sheet with micro-porous showed a higher discharge capacity than a cathode sheet compacted by a press process. As the amount of EMD-$MnO_2$ increased, the electrical conductivity decreased and the electrical capacity increased. The cell subjected to heat-treatment at $200^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr showed a high discharge capacity. The flexible primary cell made using the optimum conditions showed a capacity and an average voltage of 220 mAh/g and 2.8 V, respectively, at $437.5{\mu}A$.

고정층 반응기에서 망간광석을 이용하여 저농도의 일산화탄소 산화제어반응에 대하여 고찰하였다. 고려된 실험변수는 일산화탄소 농도 (500ppm~10000ppm), 산소 농도(500ppm~99.8%)와 촉매의 온도($50{\sim}750^{\circ}C$)이다. 또한 망간광석의 특성은 Thermogravimetric Analysis(TGA), 일산화탄소에 의한 환원, Temperature Programmed Reduction(TPR)실험을 이용하여 규명하였다. 망간광석의 일산화탄소 산화력은 순수이산화망간에 비해서 단위 면적당 높은 산화력과 $750^{\circ}C$까지 가열된 후에도 산화력이 유지될 수 있는 안정된 촉매작용을 보였다. Temperature Programmed Desorption(TPD), TPR 실험과 TG 등의 분석결과 산소의 농도가 낮거나 무산소하에서 망간광석의 격자내 산소가 쉽게 제공될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 일산화탄소의 농도가 500~3500ppm일 때 일산화탄소의 반응차수는 0.701이며 3500~10000ppm구간에서 일산화탄소의 농도에 무관한 0차 반응이었다.

Stricter environmental demands have increased the need to replace conventional C/D bleaching sequence by chlorine-free sequence. Permanganate is well known as a powerful oxidant and have been used industrially in variable fields. However, it has considered to be difficult to use permanganate as a bleaching reagent because of its strong oxidative effect decreasing the viscosity of pulps extremely. We have tried to use permanganate as a bleaching reagent for KP under the mild condition and it was clear that pernanganate oxidized lignin remained in pulps selectively and increased pulp brightness decreasing K number of pulps with small degradation of cellulose. We have employed the neutral condition in the permanganate bleaching process in this study. In this case, permanganate was converted to manganese dioxide after bleaching reaction. The manganese dioxide is remained in the treated pulp fibers because of its insolublity in water. So it was required to reduction the manganese oxide to manganese ion by using reductants with acid. In this paper, we proposed to use oxalic acid as a reducing reagent converting manganese oxide to manganese ion after bleaching reaction. Oxalic acid plays the role as a reductant and a acid, so post-treatment after bleaching became to be easy by using oxalic acid. On the study using lignin model compounds, it was clear that permaganate react with phenols firstly, after that oxalic acid reduce the manganese oxide to manganese ion in the mixture of permanganate, phenols and oxalic acid. Several lignin model compounds ($\textit{p}$-hydroxybenzaldehyde, vanillin, syringaldehyde, veratraldehyde) are selected to elucidate the effect of substituents on reaction rate and its mechanism with permanganate including oxalic acid in this study. Except for veratraldehyde, the rate of oxidative degradation of phenolic compounds by permanganate with oxalic acid are higher than neutral condition. Especially, the degradation rate of $\textit{p}$-hydroxybenzaldehyde are strongly dependent on pH of reaction mixture. On the other hand, the degradation rate of veratraldehyde are decreased with decreasing pH and main degradation product is veratric acid. This result indicate that pH of bleaching liquor should be kept over 2 to degrade of non-phenolic lignin in the pulps effectively in permanganate bleaching.
