In this study, cobalt nanopowder is fabricated by sonochemical polyol synthesis and magnetic separation method. First, sonochemical polyol synthesis is carried out at $220^{\circ}C$ for up to 120 minutes in diethylene glycol ($C_4H_{10}O_3$). As a result, when sonochemical polyol synthesis is performed for 50 minutes, most of the cobalt precursor ($Co(OH)_2$) is reduced to spherical cobalt nanopowder of approximately 100 nm. In particular, aggregation and growth of cobalt particles are effectively suppressed as compared to common polyol synthesis. Furthermore, in order to obtain finer cobalt nanopowder, magnetic separation method using magnetic property of cobalt is introduced at an early reduction stage of sonochemical polyol synthesis when cobalt and cobalt precursor coexist. Finally, spherical cobalt nanopowder having an average particle size of 22 nm is successfully separated.

The present study was focused on the synthesis of a zirconium-based alloyed nanopowder by the plasma arc discharge process. The chemical composition, phase structure, particle size and hydrogen sorption property of the synthesized powders under various synthesis conditions were analyzed using XRF, XRD, SEM, XPS and the ASTM-F798 method. The chemical composition of the synthesized Zr-V-Fe-based powders approached that of the raw material with an increasing hydrogen fraction in the powder synthesis atmosphere. The synthesized $Zr_{55}V_{29}Fe_{16}$ powder consist of a mixed phase structure of the $Zr,\;ZrH_2,\;FeV\;and\;Zr(V_{1-x}Fe_{x})_2$ phases. This powder has an average particle size of about 20 nm. The synthesized $Zr_{55}V_{29}Fe_{16}$ nanopowder showed getter characteristics, even though it had a lower hydrogen sorption speed than the $Zr_{57}\;V{36}\;Fe_7$ getter powder. However, the synthesized Zr nanopowder with an average particle size of 20 nm showed higher hydrogen sorption speed than the $Zr_{57}\;V{36}\;Fe_7$ getter powder.

Synthesis of iron nanopowder by room-temperature electrochemical reduction process of ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ nanopowder was investigated in terms of phase evolution and microstructure. As process variables, reduction time and applied voltage were changed in the range of $1{\sim}20$ h and $30{\sim}40$ V, respectively. From XRD analyses, it was found that volume of Fe phase increased with increasing reduction time and applied voltage, respectively. The crystallite size of Fe phase in all powder samples was less than 30 nm, implying that particle growth was inhibited by the reaction at room temperature. Based on the distinct equilibrium shape of crystalline particle, phase composition of nanoparticles was identified by TEM observation.

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.

FePt binary-alloy nanopowder has been successfully synthesized by chemical vapor condensation process with two metal organic precursors, i.e., iron pentacarbonyl and platinum acetylacetonate. Average particle size of the powder was less than 50 nm with very narrow size distribution, revealing high dispersion capability. Characteristics of the powder could be controlled by changing process parameters such as reaction temperature, chamber pressure, as well as gas flow rate. Magnetic properties of the synthesized FePt nanopowder were investigated and analyzed in terms of the powder characteristics.

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.

Nickel (Ni) and ferrite ($Fe_3O_4$, $NiFe_2O_4$) nanoparticles were synthesized by LGC using both wire feeding (WF) and micron powder feeding (MPF) systems. Phase evolution and magnetic properties were then investigated. The Ni nanopowder included magnetic-ordered phases. The LGC synthesis yielded spherical particles with large coercivity while the abnormal initial magnetization curve for Ni indicated a non-collinear magnetic structure between the core and surface layer of the particles. Since the XRD pattern cannot actually distinguish between magnetite ($Fe_3O_4$) and maghemite (${\gamma}-Fe_2O_3$) as they have a spinel type structure, the phase of the iron oxide in the samples was unveiled by $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectroscopy. The synthesized Ni-ferrite consisted of single domain particles, including an unusual ionic state. The synthesized nanopowder bore an active surface due to the defects that affected abnormal magnetic properties.
