The nano-sized Fe powders were prepared by plasma arc discharge process using pure Fe rod. The microstructure and the sintering behavior of the prepared nanopowders were evaluated. The prepared Fe nanopowders had nearly spherical shapes and consisted of metallic core and oxide shell structures. The higher volume shrinkage at low sintering temperature was observed due to the reduction of surface oxide. The nanopowders showed 6 times higher densification rate and more significant isotropic shrinkage behavior than those of micron sized Fe powders.

Microstructural and mechanical properties of Ni-YSZ fabricated using SPS processing have been investigated at various sintering temperatures. Our study shows samples to be applied as a SOFC anode have the proper porosity of 40% and high hardness when processed at $1100^{\circ}C$. These results are comparable to the values obtained at $100-200^{\circ}C$ higher sintering temperature reported by others. This result is important because when the fabrication processes are performed above $1100^{\circ}C$, the mechanical property starts to decrease drastically. This is caused by the fast grain coarsening at the higher temperature, which initiates a mismatch between thermal expansion coefficients of Ni and YSZ and induces cracks as well.

In the present study, $TiO_2$ imbedded composite powders have been successfully prepared from the (Cu. Zn)/$TiO_2$ composite salt solution. The composite (Cu, Zn)/$TiO_2$ powders were formed by drying the solution at 200~$600^{\circ}C$ in the hydrogen atmosphere. Photocatalytic characteristics was evaluated by detecting the decomposition ratio of aniline blue with UV-visible spectrophotometer(Shimazu Co., UV-1601). Phase analysis of (Cu, Zn)/$TiO_2$ composite powders was carried out by XRD and DSC, and powder size was measured with TEM. The mean particle size of composite powders was about 100mm. As the reduction temperature increases, a few zinc sulfide and oxide phases was formed and copper oxide phase was reduced. The decomposition ratio of aniline blue was about 80％ under the UV irradiation by the TiO$_2$ phase in the composite (Cu, Zn)/$TiO_2$ powders and similar decomposition ratio of 80％ was obtained at the UV lightless condition by virtue of Cu and Zn compounds.

This study compares the characteristics of a compact TiO₂ (c-TiO₂) powdery film, which is used as the electron transport layer (ETL) of perovskite solar cells, based on the manufacturing method. Additionally, its efficiency is measured by applying it to a carbon electrode solar cell. Spin-coating and spray methods are compared, and spray-based c-TiO₂ exhibits superior optical properties. Furthermore, surface analysis by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) exhibits the excellent surface properties of spray-based TiO₂. The photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) is 14.31% when applied to planar perovskite solar cells based on metal electrodes. Finally, carbon nanotube (CNT) film electrode-based solar cells exhibits a 76% PCE compared with that of metal electrode-based solar cells, providing the possibility of commercialization.

Nanoparticles of iron oxides have been prepared by the levitational gas condensation (LGC) method, and their structural and magnetic properties were studied by XRD, TEM and Mossbauer spectroscopy. Fe clusters were evaporated from a surface of the levitated liquid Fe droplet and then condensed into nanoparticles of iron oxide with particle size of 14 to 30 nm in a chamber filled with mixtures of Ar and $O_2$ gases. It was found that the phase transition from both $\gamma$-$Fe_2O_3$ and $\alpha$-Fe to $Fe_3O_4$, which was evaluated from the results of Mossbauer spectra, strongly depended on the $O_2$ flow rate. As a result, $\gamma$-$Fe_2O_3$ was synthesized under the $O_2$ flow rate of 0.1$\leq$$Vo_2$(Vmin)$\leq$0.15, whereas $Fe_3O_4$ was synthesized under the $O_2$, flow rate of 0.15$\leq$$Vo_2$(Vmin)$\leq$0.2.

As well-known wrought stainless steel, sintered stainless steel (STS) has excellent high-temperature anti-corrosion even at high temperature of $800^{\circ}C$, and exhibits good corrosion resistance in air. However, when temperature increases above $900^{\circ}C$, the corrosion resistance of STS begins to deteriorate and dramatically decreases. In this study, the effects of phase and composition of STS on high-temperature corrosion resistances are investigated for STS 316L, STS 304 and STS 434L above $800^{\circ}C$. The morphology of the oxide layers are observed. The oxides phase and composition are identified using X-ray diffractometer and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The results demonstrate that the best corrosion resistance of STS could be improved to that of 434L. The poor corrosion resistance of the austenitic stainless steels is due to the fact that $NiFe_2O_4$ oxides forming poor adhesion between the matrix and oxide film increase the oxidation susceptibility of the material at high temperature.

The Fe-Cr-Al alloy system shows an excellent heat resistance because of the formation of an $Al_2O_3$ film on the metal surface in an oxidizing atmosphere at high temperatures up to $1400^{\circ}C$. The Fecralloy needs an additive that can act as a binder because of its bad compactability. In this study, the green compacts of STS434L and Al powder added to Fecralloy are oxidized at $950^{\circ}C$ for up to 210 h. Fecralloy and Al is mixed by two types of ball milling. One is vented to air and the other was performed in a sealed jar. In the case of Al addition, there are no significant changes in the electrical resistance. Before the oxidation test, Al oxides are present in the Fecralloy surface, as determined from the energy dispersive spectroscopy results. The addition of Al improves the compactability because of an increased density, and the addition of STS434L increases the electrical resistivity by forming a composite oxide.

The Ti-Ni alloy nanopowders were synthesized by a levitational gas condensation (LGC) by using a micron powder feeding system and their particulate properties were investigated by x-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method. The starting Ti and Ni micron powders $150{\mu}m$ were incorporated into the micron powder feeding system. An ingot type of the Ti-Ni ahoy was used as a seed material for the levitation and evaporation reactions. The collected powders were finally passivated by oxidation. The x-ray diffraction experiments have shown that the synthesized powders were completely alloyed with Ti and Ni and comprised of two different cubic and monoclinic crystalline phases. The TEM results showed that the produced powders were very fine and uniform with a spherical particle size of 18 to 32nm. The typical thickness of a passivated oxide layer on the particle surface was about 2 to 3 nm. The specific surface area of the Ti-Ni alloy nanopowders was $60m^2/g$ based on BET method.

인듐 성분을 포함하는 원료용액을 분무열분해 시켜서 평균 입자크기 100 nm 이하의 인듐 산화물 나노 분말을 제조하였으며, 용액의 농도, nozzle tip 크기 및 공기의 유입속도 변화에 따른 생성된 분말들의 특성 변화를 파악하였다. 본 연구는 폐 ITO로부터 나노 크기의 ITO 분말을 제조하기 위한 전 단계 연구로 수행되었다. 원료용액 내의 인듐 성분의 농도가 40 g/l로부터 350 g/l로 증가됨에 따라 생성된 분말의 평균 입자크기는 20~30 nm로부터 50~60 nm로 점점 증가하는 반면 입도분포는 더욱 불균일하게 나타나고 있었으며, XRD peak의 강도는 점점 증가하고 비표면적은 감소되었다. Nozzle tip의 크기가 1 mm로부터 5 mm로 증가함에 따라 분말들의 평균 입자크기는 40 nm 정도로부터 100 nm 정도까지 점점 증가하고 입도분포는 더욱 불균일하게 나타나고 있었으며, XRD peak 강도는 증가하는 반면 비표면적은 감소되었다. 반응로 내로 유입되는 공기의 압력이 0.1 kg/cm$^2$로부터 0.5 kg/cm$^2$로 증가되는 경우, 분말의 평균 입자크기는 90~100 nm로 현저한 변화를 나타내지 않았다. 반면 공기압력이 1 kg/cm$^2$ 및 3 kg/cm$^2$로 증가하는 경우에는 평균 입자크기가 50~60 nm 정도까지 감소하였으며, XRD peak 강도는 감소하고 비표면적은 증가되었다.

본 연구는 금속 팔라듐 및 산화 팔라듐의 재활용을 위한 전 단계 연구로 수행되었다. 본 연구에서는 산화 팔라듐(PdO)의 형성을 위한 열역학적 수식들을 확립하였다. 또한 고상의 염화 팔라듐($PdCl_2$)을 염산 용액에 용해시킨 염화 팔라듐 용액을 원료용액으로 사용하였다. 이 원료 용액으로부터 분무열분해 공정에 의하여 평균입도 30 nm 이하의 산화 팔라듐 분체를 제조하였다. XRD 분석 결과 생성된 분체는 오직 PdO 상이었으며 TEM 분석결과 형성된 나노 PdO 입자들은 단결정 상임을 확인하였다. 또한 생성된 PdO 분말의 비표면적은 약 $32m^2/g$이었다.
