Mesoporous alumina was synthesized using bayberry tannin (BT) as template. This novel synthesis strategy was based on a precipitation method associated with aluminum nitrate as the source of aluminum in an aqueous system. $N_2$ adsorption/desorption, XRD, SEM and TEM were used to characterize the as-prepared mesoporous alumina. The results showed that the mesoporous alumina possessed crystalline pore wall, high specific surface area, narrow pore distribution and excellent thermal stability. Moreover, the surface area and pore size of the mesoporous alumina can be tuned by changing the experimental parameters. Further, the mesoporous alumina was investigated as the support of palladium catalyst ($Pd-Al_2O_3{^*}$) for the hydrogenation of propenyl, styrene and linoleic acid. For comparison, the reference catalyst ($Pd-Al_2O_3$) prepared without barberry tannin was also employed for the catalytic hydrogenation. The experimental results showed that $Pd-Al_2O_3{^*}$ exhibited the superior catalytic performance than $Pd-Al_2O_3$ for all the investigated substrates, especially for the hydrogenation of linoleic acid with larger molecular.

Mesoporous alumina particles were prepared by spray pyrolysis using cetyltrimethyl-ammonium bromide (CTAB) as a structure directing agent and the effect of Al precursor types on the texture properties was studied using $N_2$ adsorption isotherms, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The surface area and the microstructure of alumina particles were significantly influenced by the Al precursor type. The largest BET surface area was obtained when Al chloride was used, whereas alumina particles prepared from Al acetate had the largest pore volume. According to small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) analysis, the alumina powders prepared using nitrate and acetate precursors had a clear single SAXS peak around $2{\theta}=1.0{\sim}1.5^{\circ}$, indicating that regular mesopores with sponge-like structure were produced. On the basis of TEM, SAXS, and $N_2$ isotherm results, the chloride precursor was most profitable to obtain the largest surface area ($265\;m^2/g$), whereas, the nitrate precursor is useful for the preparation of non-hollow mesoporous alumina with regular pore size, maintaining high surface area (${\sim}233\;m^2/g$).

Aluminum nitride was synthesized using a carbothermal method from mesoporous alumina having a high surface area (> $1,000m^2/g$) as an aluminum source and CNTs (carbon nano tubes) as a carbon source. In this case the mesoporous alumina was used as the starting material instead of ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ with the expectation that the mesopores in mesoporous alumina act as channels for N2 gas and elimination of CO generated as by-product. It is also expected that the synthetic temperature should be lower compared to the use of ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ as a starting material due to its high surface area. The crystallinity of the produced aluminum nitride was studied by XRD and FT-IR, and the microstructure was investigated by FE-SEM. Also the purity of the aluminum nitride was analyzed through N/O determinator and ICP analysis.

본 연구에서는 메조기공 티타니아/알루미나 막을 솔-젤법을 이용하여 제조하였다. 티타니아/알루미나 막의 기공구조 및 결정상은 하소 온도에 따라 조절될 수 있었다. 티타니아에 알루미나를 첨가하는 것은 티타니아 결정상이 아나타제상에서 루타일상으로 상변화 되는 것을 지연시켜 기공구조의 열적 안정화를 가져왔다. 5번 딥코팅하여 제조된 막의 두께는 $10.3{\mu}m$였으며, 평균 기공크기는 5 nm이었다. 기체 투과 실험 결과는 수소와 질소의 permeance는 각각 $17.1{\tiems}10^{-7}mol/m^2{\cdot}s{\cdot}Pa$ 및 $4.7{\tiems}10^{-7}mol/m^2{\cdot}s{\cdot}Pa$이었다. 이 결과는 Knudsen 확산에 의해 설명될 수 있었다.

Ammonia, $NH_3$, is a key chemical widely used in chemical industries and a toxic pollutant that impacts human health. Thus, there is a need for the development of effective adsorbents with high uptake capacities to adsorb $NH_3$. An adsorbent with a high surface area and a small pore size is generally preferred in order to have a high capacity for the removal of $NH_3$. The use inorganic nanoporous materials as gas adsorbents has increased substantially and emerged as an alternative to zeolite and activated carbon. Herein, mesoporous alumina (MA) was prepared and used as an $NH_3$ adsorbent. MA showed good pore properties such as a uniform pore size and interlinked pore system, when compared to commercial adsorbents (activated carbon, zeolite, and silica powder). MA has free hydroxyl groups, serving as useful adsorption sites for $NH_3$. In an adsorption isotherm test, MA exhibited 4.7-6.5 times higher uptake capacities for $NH_3$ than commercial adsorbents. Although the larger surface areas of adsorbents are important features of ideal adsorbents, a regular and interlinked adsorbent pore system was found to be a more crucial factor to adsorb $NH_3$.

n-부탄의 산화적 탈수소화 반응을 위한 Cr 촉매가 연구되었다. 촉매의 제조는 메조포러스 물질인 SBA-15와 ${\gamma}$-alumina 지지체로 사용되었고 지지체의 표면 위에 Cr 산화물을 담지시키는 방법은 함침법이 사용되었고, Cr의 분산성을 높이기 위하여 구조 증진제로 Ti, Zr를 분산시킨 위에 Cr을 담지하여 특성분석 하였다. 촉매특성은 XRD, FT-IR, UV-Vis, ICPAES, SEM, TEM 등을 이용하여 분석하였다. Cr 촉매에서 넓은 표면적을 가진 지지체의 효과는 전환율에 큰 차이를 보이지 않고 Ti, Zr이 증진제로 사용된 촉매의 경우 trans-2-부텐의 선택도가 높아짐을 보였다.

양이온성(C), 음이온성(A) 및 비이온성(N) 계면활성제 각각을 주형물질로 사용하여 중형기공성 알루미나 (A-C, A-A 및 A-N)를 제조한 후, 이를 담체로 활용하여 일반적인 함침법으로 담지 니켈촉매(Ni/A-C, Ni/A-A 및 Ni/A-N)를 제조하였으며, 이를 액화천연가스의 수증기 개질반응에 의한 수소 제조에 적용하였다. 소성된 촉매에서 니켈종은 계면활성제의 종류에 상관없이 중형기공성 알루미나 담체의 표면에 균일하게 분산되었다. 하지만 환원된 촉매에서 니켈과 알루미나 담체 간의 상호작용 세기는 계면활성제의 종류에 밀접하게 의존하였다. 액화천연가스 전환율 및 건가스 중 수소가스 조성은 Ni/A-C < Ni/A-A < Ni/A-N의 순으로 증가하였다. 환원된 촉매 상의 니켈 비표면적이 증가할수록 반응활성 역시 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, 제조된 촉매중에서 니켈 비표면적이 가장 높은 Ni/A-N 촉매가 가장 높은 반응환성을 나타내었다.

The composite mesoporous ceramic membranes were prepared with ${\gamma}$-alumina and poly (2, 6-dimethyl-l, 4-pyphenylene oxide) (PPO) on the surface of the macroporous $\alpha$-alumina ceramic membranes and the permeation results were compared with those of the $\alpha$-alumina membrane for large-scale applications. In the results of the transport experiments, the ceramic membranes gave high gas permeances mainly due to Knudsen diffusion and surface diffusion as an additional mechanism. And, the polymer modification increased the permeances of the strongly adsorbing gas components. In this study the modifications of alumina ceramic membranes could increase the gas permeation performances especially for the strongly absorbing gas components.

바이오매스 유래 항암물질 paclitaxel 정제를 위하여, 물리적 특성이 다른 메조기공 알루미나 흡착제를 제조하여 흡착제 처리 효과를 조사하였다. 알루미나의 물리적 특성 중 표면적과 기공부피 보다는 기공크기(기공지름)이 흡착제 처리효과에 많은 영향을 미쳤다. 특히 적절한 기공크기(기공지름: 10.8 nm)에서 식물유래 타르 및 왁스 성분을 포함한 불순물을 제거하는데 가장 효과적이었다. 일정한 기공크기에서 흡착제의 표면적은 paclitaxel 순도뿐만 아니라 수율에 많은 영향을 미치며 흡착제의 표면적이 증가할수록 paclitaxel과 불순물(바이오매스 유래 타르 및 왁스 성분 포함)의 흡착 정도는 증가하였다. 이러한 불순물 제거 효과는 흡착제 처리 후 흡착제를 메탄올로 세척하여 HPLC로 분석한 결과와 흡착제에 붙은 유기물의 TGA 정량 분석 결과로도 확인할 수 있었다.
