Silica-coated Au with Ag, Co, Cu, and Ir bimetallic radioisotope nanoparticles were synthesized by neutron irradiation, after coating $SiO_2$ onto the bimetallic particles by the sol-gel St$\ddot{o}$ber process. Bimetallic nanoparticles were synthesized by irradiating aqueous bimetallic ions at room temperature. Their shell and core diameters were recorded by TEM to be 100 - 112 nm and 20 - 50 nm, respectively. The bimetallic radioisotope nanoparticles' gamma spectra showed that they each contained two gamma-emitting nuclides. The nanoparticles could be used as radiotracers in petrochemical and refinery processes that involve temperatures that would decompose conventional organic radioactive labels.

Homogenous silica-coated $CoFe_2O_4$ samples with controlled silica thickness were synthesized by the reverse microemulsion method. First, 7 nm size cobalt ferrite nanoparticles were prepared by thermal decomposition methods. Hydrophobic cobalt ferrites were coated with controlled $SiO_2$ using polyoxyethylene(5)nonylphenylether (Igepal) as a surfactant, $NH_4OH$ and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS). The well controlled thickness of the silica shell was found to depend on the reaction time and the amount of surfactant used during production. Thick shell was prepared by increasing reaction time and small amount of surfactant.

The effects of fluxes on MgO coating materials for tundish were investigated. As the number of charge in continuous casting was increased, the basicity of tundish slag was decreased due to the increase of silica formed by dissolution from rice hull. As a result, the wear of magnesia lining was increased. In aggregates of MgO coating materials, magnesioferrite was formed by the reaction between magnesia and ferric oxide formed by the oxidation of molten steel, while matrix parts of MgO coating materials were worn by CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 compounds. Silica in rice hull extracted to the molten slag reduced basicity of slag and formed forsterite in the result of its reaction with magnesia lining. Also, fayalite was formed from the reaction between silica and ferric oxide and it caused the increment of magnesia lining's wear. The wear of magnesia lining by flux of CaO-SiO2 was larger than that of Cao-Al2O3 and calcia in the flux increased the wear of magnesia lining through the formation of rankinite.

Multifunctional nanomaterials based on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) and metal oxide nanocrystals are among the most promising materials for theragnosis because of their ease of modification and high biocompatibility. However, the preparation of multifunctional nanoparticles requires time-consuming multistep processes. Herein, we report a simple one-pot synthesis of multifunctional Mn₃O₄/mesoporous silica core/shell nanoparticles (Mn₃O₄@mSiO₂) involving the temporal separation of core formation and shell growth. This simple procedure greatly reduces the time and effort required to prepare multifunctional nanoparticles. Despite the simplicity of the process, the properties of nanoparticles are not markedly different from those of core/shell nanoparticles synthesized by a previously reported multistep process. The Mn₃O₄@mSiO₂ nanoparticles are biocompatible and have potential for use in optical imaging and magnetic resonance imaging.

The W/O emulsion was formed by mixing hydrophobic nonion surfactants of span 80 and tween 60 with kerosine, and by adding sodium silicate aqueous solution. Precipitating the W/O emulsion by sodium bicarbonate resulted in spherical silica particles. Shape and size distribution of silica particles were observed. The particles were spherical and they have narrow size distribution. Particle sizes were 9.29, 7.39 and $5.73\;{\mu}m$ at homogenizer speed of 2500, 3000, and 3500 rpm, respectively. The particle size was decreased by increasing agitation speed due to the formation of emulsion droplet. At fixed agitation speed, absorbed paraffin oil weight were measured and the $SiO_2/Na_2O$ mole ratio effects on particle size were investigated. Particle size was decreased by increasing the mole ratio of $SiO_2/Na_2O$.

메조포러스 실리카는 강한 친수성과 구조적인 특성으로 인하여 저습환경에서도 이온교환막에 적절한 수화가 일어나도록 할 것이다. 그러므로 메조포러스 실리카와 나피온을 합성한 이온교환막은 낮은 상대습도에서도 우수한 양성자 전도도를 보일 것이다. 메조포러스 실리카와 나피온 합성이온교환막의 이온채널형성 그리고 네트워크를 통한 양성자 이동에 대한 이해는 합성이온교환막을 개발하고 최적화하기 위해 필수적이라 할 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 메조포러스 구조 (mesoporous cellular foam) $SiO_2/Nafion$ 합성이온교환막을 제작하고 양성자 전도도 및 성능을 평가하였다. 또한, 정전기력 현미경(electrostatic force microscopy, EFM)을 사용하여 메조포러스 구조 $SiO_2/Nafion$ 합성 이온교환막의 표면 전하 밀도 측정을 통한 이온 채널의 분포 및 밀도를 분석하였다. 연구는 몇 가지 주목할 만한 결과를 보여주었다. 첫째, 합성이온교환막은 저습환경에서 우수한 양성자 전도도 및 성능을 나타내었다. 둘째, 합성이온교환막은 국부적으로 이온채널의 밀도가 주목할 만하게 높은 지역이 형성되며 동시에 양성자 전도도가 극단적으로 낮은 지역 또한 동시에 형성됨을 확인하였다.

This manuscript reports on compared color evolution about phase transformation of ${\alpha}-FeOOH@SiO_2$ and ${\beta}-FeOOH@SiO_2$ pigments. Prepared ${\alpha}$-FeOOH and ${\beta}$-FeOOH were coated with silica for enhancing thermal properties and coloration of both samples. To study phase and color of ${\alpha}$-FeOOH and ${\beta}$-FeOOH, we prepared nano sized iron oxide hydroxide pigments which were coated with $SiO_2$ using tetraethylorthosilicate and cetyltrimethyl-ammonium bromide as a surface modifier. The silica-coated both samples were calcined at high temperatures (300, 700 and $1000^{\circ}C$) and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ color parameter measurements, transmission electron microscopy and UV-vis spectroscopy. The yellow ${\alpha}$-FeOOH and ${\beta}$-FeOOH was transformed to ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ with red, brown at 300, $700^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Uniform, hollow nanosilica spheres were prepared by the chemical coating of cationic polystyrene (cPS) with tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), followed by calcination at 600 $^{\circ}C$ under air. cPS was synthesized by surfactant-free emulsion polymerization using 2,2'-azobis (2-methyl propionamidine) dihydrochloride as the cationic initiator, and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) as a stabilizer. The resulting cPS spheres were 280 nm in diameter, and showed monodispersion. After coating, the hollow silica product was spherically shaped, and 330 nm in diameter, with a narrow distribution of sizes. Dispersion was uniform. Wall thickness was 25 nm, and surface area was 96.4 $m^2/g$, as determined by BET. The uniformity of the wall thickness was strongly dependent upon the cPS surface charge. The effects of TEOS and ammonia concentrations on shape, size, wall thickness, and surface roughness of hollow $SiO_2$ spheres were investigated. We observed that the wall thicknesses of hollow $SiO_2$ spheres increased and that silica size was simultaneously enhanced with increases in TEOS concentrations. When ammonia concentrations were increased, the irregularity of rough surfaces and aggregation of spherical particles were more severe because higher concentrations of ammonia result in faster hydrolysis and condensation of TEOS. These changes caused the silica to grow faster, resulting in hollow $SiO_2$ spheres with irregular, rough surfaces.

본 실험에서는 물유리를 사용하여 산세척에 의하여 제조된 산화철 입자의 표면개질에 대하여 연구하였다. 사용한 물유리의 $SiO_2$와 $Na_2O$의 몰비($SiO_2/Na_2O$)는 1, 2, 3.5이였다. 첨가되는 실리카의 양과 pH에 따라 산화철 현탁액의 분산성을 입자의 표면하전과 침강속도에 의하여 평가하였다. 그리고, 중성 영역에서 산화철 입자의 분산안정성을 유지할 수 있는 표면개질제(실리카)의 양을 도출하였으며, 물유리에 의한 산화철 입자의 표면개질을 습식 볼밀링에 의하여 슬러리 상태에서 실시하였다. 그 결과, 표면처리한 산화철 현탁액의 분산 안정성은 실리카의 양과 pH에 상호 의존하였다. 미처리한 산화철은 등전점인 pH 8에서 분산안정성을 잃고 있었으나, 산화철에 대하여 약 0.8wt%의 실리카로 표면처리한 산화철은 pH 5 이상 중성영역에서 분산안정성을 나타내었으며, 음이온성 계면활성제를 0.2wt% 이상 첨가에 의한 분산안정성이 더욱 증가되었다.
