The photocatalytic decolorization and photodegradation of wastewater contamininated with dyes such as methyleneblue tetrahydrate(MBT), methyl orange(MO), phenol red(PR) and the mixed dyes have been studied using a batch reactor in the presence of aerotropic and titania. Degussa P25 titanium oxide was used as the photocatalyst and proved to be effective for the dyes-degradation when irradiated with UV-light source emitting the wavelength of 253.7 nm in the presence of air. In addition to removing the color from the wastewater, the photocatalytic reaction simultaneously reduced the COD and optical density which suggests that the dissolved organic compounds have been photooxidized. The reaction rate of disappearance of the dyes were measured as a function of the irradiation times. The photooxidative procedure of the aquatic solution have the first order reaction-kinetics. The rate constants were increased in the order of PR < MBT < $gL^{-1}-TiO_2$ powder were irradiated with the UV -light source.

Photocatalytic water splitting into $H_2$ and $O_2$ using semiconductors has received much attention, especially for its potential application to direct production of $H_2$ for clean energy from water utilizing solar light energy. Since the report of Fujishima and Honda on the water splitting by photoelectrochemical cells, numerous different semiconducting materials have been used as photocatalysts for hydrogen generation from water. Among them, platinized titania significantly accelerates hydrogen production from water. For geometrical improvement of $TiO_2$ particle, porous $TiO_2$ structure was proposed and studied such as nanofiber, nanorod and nototubes. This research focuses on finding out the optimum temperature and electrolyte to produce $H_2$ by solar water splitting.

For the rib materials in PDP(plasma display panel), an effective method to improve the mechanical properties is to form a composite material by reinforcing a glass matrix with rigid fillers, such as alumina and titania powders. In this study, two types of ribs with different volume percent of fillers and with different glass matrix were tested for hardness, Young's modulus with the Berkovich indentation. As a result, cracks appeared around at the load of 1345 mN for the dense type of rib, while porous one endured until 2427 mN without any crack formation. Young's modulus and hardness decreased at the range: 90∼65 GPa, 9∼4 GPa, respectively as a function of indent load. Thus, a new method with nanoindenter represents a possible evaluation method for mechanical properties of barrier ribs.

A wide variety of materials including aldehydes, cationic agents, alcohols, peroxygens, phenols and chlorinated phenols, metal ions are being employed as biocides. Among three levels for biocidal functions (sanitization, disinfection and sterilization), disinfection is an enough level for antimicrobial textiles. In terms of antimicrobial agents for textile applications, quaternary ammonium salts (QAS), chitosan, metal and metal salts, N-halamine based materials are developed with numerous research and the positive ions of those materials may result in disinfection of microorganisms. Photocatalysts, especially titanium dioxide (titania) produces the hydroxyl radical (${\cdot}\;OH$) which causes inactivation of microorganisms after UV radiation, have been used for antimicrobial applications.

최근 환경오염에 대한 문제가 심각해지면서 인체에 유해한 유기물질의 분해에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으며 따라서 뛰어난 광촉매 특성을 보이는 타이태니아(TiO$_2$)에 대한 많은 연구가 수행되고있다. 타이태니아가 보이는 결정상 중에는 brookite, anatse, rutile이 있는데 이 중에서 anatse 상이 가장 우수한 광촉매 특성을 나타내는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 anatse 상을 얻기 위해서는 $600^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도로 열처리를 해야 한다는 문제점이 있으며 광촉매 특성을 향상시키기 위해서는 anantase 나노결정을 제조하여 표면적을 극대화시 키는 것이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러 한 두 가지 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 Polyethylen oxide(PEO)-TiO$_2$ 나노하이브리드를 Sol-Gel공정을 이용하여 합성하였으며 이들에 대한 hot-water treatment를 통하여 10$0^{\circ}C$ 이하의 저온에서 anatase 나노결정상의 분말을 합성하는데 성공하였다. 이는 SiO$_2$-TiO$_2$계 하이브리드에서만 hot-water treatment를 통하여 anatase로 결정화가 가능하다는 기존의 연구결과와 상반되는 결과로서 무기질 성분으로서 TiO$_2$만 존재하는 하이브리드에 대한 hoi-water treatment를 통하여 anatase결정상이 형성될 수 있었다.

The titania membrane thickness coated on the porous alumina support by the sol-gel method was analyzed using the slipcasting model. The thickness of calcined membrane layers increased linearly from 1.3 to 3.8 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ with the square root of the dipping time (4~40 min). Growth rates of the thickness of wet gels and calcined layers were well described quantitatively by the slipcasting model. Through the regression of experimental data using model equations, the permeability and the pressure drop across wet gels, and the thickness and their growth rate constants of wet gels and calcined layers could be determined. It was also known that the gellation concentration of the TiO2 sol used in this work and the porosity of wet gel layes were 25 mol/ι and 0.53, respectively.

Using Hebb-Wagner's asymmetric cell, partial conductivities of holes and electrons in yttria stabilized zirconia doped with 10 mol% TiO2 have been estimated by a dc polarization measurement. The current interrruption method and ac impedance measurements have been also made to evaluate the ionic conductivity and to examine the consistency of the partial conductivities. Partial conductivities of electrons(σn) and holes (σp) were found to be pro-peortional to -1/4 and 1/4 power of partial pressure of oxygen gas, respectively, except for σn at reducing conditions. In comparison with 5 mol% doped YSZ, σn was found to increase with the increase of TiO2 concentration, but σp stayed at almost a constant value.

In this work, we applied the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process to the planarization of ferroelectric film. We compared the structural characteristics of BST $(Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}TiO_3)$ films before and after the CMP process. Their dependence on slurry composition was also investigated. Finally, we suggest the self-developed titania $(TiO_2)$ mixed abrasive slurry (MAS) for FRAM applications. Our experimental results on the ferroelectric film are encouraging for the next generation of FRAM applications.
