3 mol% Co-added $Ni(OH)_2$ fine powders, which showed ${\beta}$-phase, as positive electrode materials have been fabricated using $NiSO_4{\cdot}6H_2O$ aqueous solution by ultrasonic spray-chemical precipitation and subsequent hydrothermal method, and sheet-like Ni nanopowder was fabricated by mechano-chemical reduction method. The addition effects of the sheet-like Ni nanopowder on the electrochemical properties of the positive electrode in Ni-Zn Redox flow battery were investigated. Impedance spectroscopy revealed that the addition of the sheet-like Ni nanopowder resulted in decrease in the electrical resistivity; 10 wt.% addition reduced the electrical properties by a fifth. Cyclic voltammetry showed the addition of the sheet-like Ni nanopowder resulted in decrease in the potential difference of oxidation and reduction; this means the increase in the reversability for electrode reduction. Charge/discharge measurement confirmed that the addition of the sheet-like Ni nanopowder resulted in the increase in the discharge efficiency.

니켈-나노분말/에폭시 복합재료의 계면 특성과 소수성을 자체-감지능과 작동기 측정을 위해 평가하였다. 경사형 시편을 사용하여 접촉 저항 및 저항도를 측정하였다. 자기장에서 복합재료의 작동성을 세가지 파형들, 즉, 싸인, 삼각, 그리고 사각파를 사용하여 평가하였다. 균일하지 않은 표면에 존재하는 소수성 영역 때문에 Ni-에폭시 나노복합재료의 어떤 부분은 초소수성보다는 다소 낮은 접촉각인 110도를 가졌다. 동적 접촉각은 정적 접촉각과 경향이 상호 일치함을 보였다. 니켈-나노분말의 고유의 금속성질 때문에 자체 감지를 확인하였으며, 또한 전자기장에 작동 반응을 잘 하였다. 니켈-나노분말/에폭시 복합재료의 최대 및 최적의 성능을 얻기 위해서, 레이져 변위 센서를 사용하여, 파형, 주파수, 그리고 전압의 함수로 작동기의 변위를 평가하였다. 니켈-나노분말/에폭시 복합재료의 작동은 적용된 주파수와 전압의 함수로써 증가하였다. 작동된 복합재료들의 연신율은 전압의 증가에 따라 삼각 혹은 사각파보다 싸인파에서 더욱 빨리 증가하였다.

The sintering behavior and mechanical property of Mo nanopowder was investigated as a function of various sintering condition. Mo oxide nanopowders were milled using a high energy ball-milling process. After the ball milling for 20h, the crystalline size of $MoO_3$ was about 20 nm. The $MoO_3$ nanopowders were reduced at the temperature of $800^{\circ}C$ without holding time in $H_2$ atmosphere. The sinterability of Mo nanopowder and commercial Mo powder was investigated by dilatometric analysis. Mo nanopowder and commercial Mo powder were sintered at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 1 hand $1500^{\circ}C$ for 3 h, respectively. In both specimens the measured relative density was about 95%. But the measured hardness values were 2.34 GPa for nanopowder and 1.87 GPa for commercial powder. Probably due to finer grain size of the sintered body prepared from Mo nanopowder than that prepared using commercial Mo powder. The mean grain sizes were measured to be about 1.4 mm and 6.2 mm, respectively.

폐실리콘 슬러지로부터 테트라메틸오쏘실리케이트(TMOS)와 실리카 나노분말을 제조하였다. 먼저, 실리카 나노분말의 전구체인 TMOS를 폐실리콘 슬러지로부터 촉매 화학반응에 의해 합성하였다. TMOS의 합성실험에서 반응온도가 $130^{\circ}C$ 이상에서는 반응시간이 5시간 경과 시 반응온도에 무관하게 100%의 반응율을 나타내었다. 그러나 $150^{\circ}C$ 이상에서는 초기 반응속도가 빨라졌다. 메탄올 주입속도를 0.8 ml/min에서 1.4 ml/min로 증가시에는 3시간 경과 후에는 반응율이 변화하지 않았다. 이와 같이 합성된 TMOS로부터 화염분무열분해법에 의해 실리카 나노분말을 제조하였다. 제조된 실리카 나노분말은 구형이며, 무응집 형태이었다. 평균입자 크기는 전구체의 주입속도 및 농도변화에 따라 9 nm에서 30 nm로 변화하였다.

[ ${\beta}-W(W_3O)$ ] oxide layer on the surface of each W(tungsten) nanopowder produced by the electric explosion of wire(EEW) process were formed during the 1vol.% air passivation process. The oxide layer hindered sintering densification of compacts during SPS process. The oxide phase was reduced to the pure W phase during SPS. The W nanopowder's compacts treated by the hydrogen reduction showed high sintered density of 94.5%. after SPS process at $1900^{\circ}C$.

A shortcoming of using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for structural analysis via electron diffraction is the relatively large error of the measurements as compared to X-ray diffraction. To reduce these errors, various internal standard methods from earlier studies have been widely used. We developed a new device to facilitate the application of internal standard methods in preparation of TEM grids used for nanopowder analysis. Through the application of a partial mask on the TEM grid, both the internal standards and the research materials can be loaded on the same grid. Through this process, we conducted a TEM analysis that compared synthetic hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanopowder to bone apatite from a bovine femur. We determined that the accuracy of the d-spacing measurements of the HAp and bone powders could be improved to better than 1% after statistical treatments of the experimental data. By applying a quarter mask, we loaded four different nanoparticles on a single TEM grid, with one section designated for the internal standard.

Through the volume change of Sn in a low-temperature phase transformation, the Sn nanopowder with high, purity, was fabricated by an economic and eco-friendly process. The fine cracks were spontaneously generated. in, Sn ingot, which was reduced to powders in the repetition of phase transformation. The Sn nanopowder with 50 run in size was obtained by the 24th repetitions of phase transformation by low-temperature and ultrasonic treatments. Also, the $SnO_2$ powder was fabricated by the oxidation of the produced Sn powder to the ingot and milled by the ultrasonic milling method. The $SnO_2$ nanopowder of 20 nm in size was fabricated after the milling for 180 h.

The microstructure and mechanical properties of the hypereutectic prealloyed Al-Si powders prepared by the gas atomization process were described in this paper. With increasing the gas pressure of the atomization, the average powder size was decreased from about $145{\mu}m\;to\;80{\mu}m$. The primary eutectic Si particles were uniformly distributed in the Al matrix and their size varied in the range of $8-10{\mu}m$. The high densified specimens with above 96% of the theoretical density were fabricated the hot pressing process. The UTS mechanical properties of VN1 specimens were much higher than that of conventional hypoeutectic Al-Si alloys.

Low power consuming and highly responsive semiconductor-type microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) gas sensors are fabricated for real-time environmental monitoring applications. This subsystem is developed using a gas sensor module, a Bluetooth module, and a personal digital assistant (PDA) phone. The gas sensor module consists of a $NO_2$ or CO gas sensor and signal processing chips. The MEMS gas sensor is composed of a microheater, a sensing electrode, and sensing material. Metal oxide nanopowder is drop-coated onto a substrate using a microheater and integrated into the gas sensor module. The change in resistance of the metal oxide nanopowder from exposure to oxidizing or deoxidizing gases is utilized as the principle mechanism of this gas sensor operation. The variation detected in the gas sensor module is transferred to the PDA phone by way of the Bluetooth module.
