A one-dimensional transport of displacing monovalent ion, $A^+$, and a trivalent ion being displaced, $B^{3+}^ in a porous exchange system such as soil was approximated using the Crank-Nicolson implicit finite difference technique and the Thomas algorithm in tandem. The variations in the concentration profile were investigated by varying the ion-exchange equilibrium constant (k) of ion-exchange reactions, the influent concentrations, and the cation exchange capacity (CEC) of the exchanger, under constant flux condition of pore water and dispersion coefficient. A higher value of k resulted in a greater removal of the native ion, behind the sharper advancing front of displacing ion, while the magnitude of the penetration distance of $A^+$ was not great. As the CEC increased, the equivalent fraction of $B^{3+}^ initially in the soil was greater, thus indicating that a higher CEC adsorbed trivalent cations preferentially over monovalent ions. Mass balance error from simulation results was less than 1%, indicating this model accounted for instantaneous charge balance fairly well.

정방정 지르코니아의 상안정성 및 저온열화기구를 고찰하기 위해 Y2O3 안정화 지르코니아에 3가 양이온 산화물을 첨가한 후 그 소결체의 기계적 물성, 라만 스펙트럼 및 격자상수 변화 등을 관찰하였다. 2Y-TZP에 $Zr^{4+}$ 보다 이온크기가 큰 3가 양이온($Sc^{3+},\;Yb^{3+},\;Y^{3+},\;Sm^{3+},\;Nd^{3+},\;La^{3+}$)들을 2 mol%까지 첨가하여 $1500{\circ}C$에서 1시간 소결후, X-ray 상분석 결과 $La^{3+}$의 경우에는 0.5 mol% 이상 첨가시 pyrochlore 상$(La_2Zr_2O_7)$의 형성으로 정방정상의 상안정성이 저하되었다. 첨가량이 증가할수록 $Zr6{4+}$과 이온크기가 거의 비슷한 $Sc^{3+}$를 첨가한 경우에는 정방정상만 관찰되었으나 $Yb^{3+},\;Y^{3+},\;Sm^{3+},\;Nd^{3+}$를 첨가한 경우에는 입방정상이 형성되었다. 양이온 크기가 커질수록 c/a비는 증가하였으나 $220{\circ}C$에서 500시간까지 열처리후 상분석 결과 단사정량은 감소하였다.

We have measured changes of the non-stoichiometry, $\Delta\delta$, in Fe-doped nicked oxide , by thermogravimetry for four iron fractions, x=0.01, 0.031, 0.057 and 0.10, and three temperatures, T=1273, 1373 and 1473 K. The obtained data can be modelled by a defect structure in which substitutional trivalent iron ions, FeNi, are compensated by cation vacancies, $V_{Ni}$", and (4:1)-clusters. These clusters consist of tetravalent interstitial iron, $Fe_i\;^4$

The physical properties of \ulcorner-Fe2O3 raw materials were investigated. \ulcorner-Fe2O3/Pd thick film gas sensors were fabricated with screen-printing method and their electrical and sensitivity characteristics were analyzed. The irreversible phase transition from \ulcorner-Fe2O3 to \ulcorner-Fe2O3 occured at 500\ulcorner. At this time, the cation of tetrahedral sites moved into the octahedral sites. \ulcorner-Fe2O3 raw materials contained only trivalent and no divalent iron. Thecontents of divalent iron (Fe+\ulcorner were increased as detecting gases were adsorbed. The addition of Pd (1w/o) to \ulcorner-Fe2O3 enhanced the sensitivity to gases. The sentivity of \ulcorner-Fe2O3/Pd(1w/o) thick film to 5000ppm C4H10 was 97% at the operating temperature of 300\ulcorner.

Adsorption behavior of counterions under a Langmuir monolayer was investigated by sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy. By comparing SFG spectra of arachidic acid (AA) Langmuir monolayer/water interface with and without added salt, it was found that the simple trivalent cation $La^{3+}$ adsorbed on AA monolayer only when the carboxylic headgroups are charged (deprotonated), implying that counterion adsorption is induced by Coulomb interaction. On the other hand, metal hydroxide complex $Fe(OH)_3$ adsorbed even on a charge-neutral AA monolayer, indicating that the adsorption of iron hydroxide is due to chemical interaction such as covalent or hydrogen bonding to the headgroup of the molecules at the monolayer.

It has been demonstrated that an unidentified cytosolic factor(s) reduces $K_{ACh}$ channel function. Therefore, this study attempted to elucidate the cytosolic factor. Fresh cytosol isolated from normal heart (FC) depressed the $K_{ACh}$ channel activity, but cytosol isolated from the ischemic hearts (IC) did not modulate the channel function. Electrophorectic analysis revealed that a protein of ${\sim}80 kDa was markedly reduced or even lost in IC. By using peptide sequencing analysis and Western blot, this 80 kDa protein was identified as transferrin (receptor-mediated $Fe^{3+}$ transporter, 76 kDa). Direct application of transferrin (100 nM) to the cytoplasmic side of inside-out patches decreased the open probability ($P_o$, 12.7${\pm}6.4%, n=4) without change in mean open time (${\tau}_o$, $98.5{\pm}1.3$%, n=4). However, the equimolar apotransferrin, which is free of $Fe^{3+}$, had no effect on the channel activity (N*$P_o$, $129.1{\pm}13.5$%, n=3). Directly applied $Fe^{3+}$ (100 nM) showed results similar to those of transferrin (N*$P_o$: $21.1{\pm}3.9$%, n=5). However $Fe^{2+}$ failed to reduce the channel function (N*$P_o$, $106.3{\pm}26.8$%, n=5). Interestingly, trivalent cation La3+ inhibited N*$P_o$ of the channel ($6.1{\pm}3.0$%, n=3). Taken together, these results suggest that $Fe^{3+}$ bound to transferrin can modulate the $K_{ACh}$ channel function by its electrical property as a polyvalent cation.

본 연구에서는 10∼15 ㎬의 압력, $1000∼1400 ^{\circ}C$의 온도 조건에서 함수 현무암질 물질로부터 합성된 스티쇼바이트의 함수량을 결정하였고, 스티쇼바이트에 고용하는 알루미늄과 수소와의 치환 메커니즘을 고찰하였다. 단결정 스티쇼바이트의 최대 함수량은 $844\pm$44 ppm $H_2$O이며, 수소 고용은 3가이온(주로 알루미늄)에 비례하여 증가하며, 다른 원소들보다 온도에 민감하다. 이러한 결과는 무수광물 중에서 스티쇼바이트는 중요한 함수상임을 시사하며, 하부맨틀로 물을 수송하는 중요한 운반매체 역할을 한다고 판단된다.

In this study, NASICON-type Li_1+XGa_XTi_2-X(PO₄)₃ (x = 0.1, 0.3 and 0.4) solid-state electrolytes for all-solid-state batteries were synthesized through the sol-gel method. In addition, the influence on the ion conductivity of solid-state electrolytes when partially substituted for Ti⁴⁺ (0.61Å) site to Ga³⁺ (0.62Å) of trivalent cations was investigated. The obtained precursor was heat treated at 450 ℃, and a single crystalline phase of Li_1+XGa_XTi_2-X(PO₄)₃ systems was obtained at a calcination temperature above 650 ℃. Additionally, the calcinated powders were pelletized and sintered at temperatures from 800 ℃ to 1,000 ℃ at 100 ℃ intervals. The synthesized powder and sintered bodies of Li_1+XGa_XTi_2-X(PO₄)₃ were characterized using TG-DTA, XRD, XPS and FE-SEM. The ionic conduction properties as solid-state electrolytes were investigated by AC impedance. As a result, Li_1+XGa_XTi_2-X(PO₄)₃ was successfully produced in all cases. However, a GaPO₄ impurity was formed due to the high sintering temperatures and high Ga content. The crystallinity of Li_1+XGa_XTi_2-X(PO₄)₃ increased with the sintering temperature as evidenced by FE-SEM observations, which demonstrated that the edges of the larger cube-shaped grains become sharper with increases in the sintering temperature. In samples with high sintering temperatures at 1,000 ℃ and high Ga content above 0.3, coarsening of grains occurred. This resulted in the formation of many grain boundaries, leading to low sinterability. These two factors, the impurity and grain boundary, have an enormous impact on the properties of Li_1+XGa_XTi_2-X(PO₄)₃. The Li_1.3Ga_0.3Ti_1.7(PO₄)₃ pellet sintered at 900 ℃ was denser than those sintered at other conditions, showing the highest total ion conductivity of 7.66 × 10^-5 S/cm at room temperature. The total activation energy of Li-ion transport for the Li_1.3Ga_0.3Ti_1.7(PO₄)₃ solid-state electrolyte was estimated to be as low as 0.36 eV. Although the Li_1+XGa_XTi_2-X(PO₄)₃ sintered at 1,000 ℃ had a relatively high apparent density, it had less total ionic conductivity due to an increase in the grain-boundary resistance with coarse grains.

The human solute carrier, SLC41Al, is a $Mg^{2}+$ transporter that is regulated by extracellular magnesium. Although intracellular magnesium plays a fundamental role in cellular metabolism, little is known about how $Mg^{2}+$ is taken up and controlled by cells. Magnesium plays a fundamental role in cellular metabolism so that its control within the body is critical. Magnesium homeostasis is principally a balance between intestinal absorption of dietary magnesium and renal excretion of urinary magnesium. The kidney, mainly the distal convoluted tubule, controls magnesium reabsorption. Although renal reabsorption is under the influence of many hormones, selective regulation of magnesium transport is due to intrinsic control involving transcriptional processes and synthesis of transport proteins. Using microarray analysis, identification of the genetic elements involved with this transcriptional control has been begun. SLC41A1(GenBank Accession No. AJ514402), comprises 10 putative transmembrane domains, two of which are highly homologous to the integral membrane part of the prokaryote transports $Mg^{2}+$ and other divalent cations $Sr^2+,\;Zn^2+,\;Cu^2+,\;Fe^2+,\;Co^2+,\;Ba^2+,\;and\;Cd^2+,\;but\;not\;Ca^2+,\;Mn^2+,\;and\;Ni^2+.$ Transport of $Mg^{2}+$ by SLC41Al is rheogenic, voltage dependent, and not coupled to Na or Cl. Expressed SLC41Al transports a range of other divalent cations: $Mg^{2+},\;Sr^{2+},\;Zn^{2+},\;Cu^{2+},\;Fe^{2+},\;Co^{2+},\;Ba^{2+},\;and\;Cd^{2+}$. The divalent cations $Ca^{2+},\;Mn^{2+},\;and\;Ni^{2+}$and the trivalent ion $Gd^{3+}$ did not induce currents nor did they inhibit $Mg^{2+}$ transport. The nonselective cation $La^{3+}$ abolishes $Mg^{2+}$ uptake. Computer analysis of the SLC41Al protein structure reveals that it belongs to MgtE protein family & suggested that the human solute carrier, SLC41Al, might be a eukaryotic $Mg^{2+}$ transporter closely related $(60-70\%)$ protein encoded by SLC41A2 is a $Mg^{2}+$ transporter that might be involved in magnesium homeostasis in epithelial cells also transports a range of other divalent cations: $Ba^2,\;Ni^2,\;CO^2,\;Fe^2,\;or\;Mn^2,\;but\;not\;Ca^2,\;Zn^2,\;or\;Cu^{2+}$ that may have related functional properties.

Hexaferrite $Ba_{0.25}Sr_{0.75}Fe_{12}O_{19}$에 $SiO_{2}$를 첨가한 쉬트자석의 자기적 성질의 변화를 연구하기 위해 X-선 회절 실험, 뫼스바우어 분광실험, 자기모멘트 측정실험 등을 하였다. 쉬트자석은 Dr. Blade 방법에 의해 제조되었고, 결정구조는 마그네토플럼바이트 M-type 육방결정구조이다. 첨가제 농도에 따른 격자상수의 변화는 거의 없으나, $SiO_{2}$가 2.0 wt.% 이상부터 ${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ 의 상이 나타나기 시작했다. 이성질체 이동값은 Fe이온들이 3가 임을 나타낸다. $SiO_{2}$의 증가에 따라 Curie 온도는 감소함을 보였다. 이것은 $Si^{4+}$가 12k-site $Fe^{3+}$의 자리를 차지함으로써 Fe-O-Fe의 초교환상호작용에 의한 원자간 거리와 양이온 사이의 각이 변함에 따른 것이다. ${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$의 상은 $Si^{4+}$가 12k-site $Fe^{3+}$의 자리를 차지함으로 치환된 $Fe^{3+}$에 의해 나타난 것이다. 자기모멘트측정으로 부터 $SiO_{2}$를 첨가한 $Ba_{0.25}Sr_{0.75}Fe_{12}O_{19}$ 쉬트자석은 보자력 $H_{c}$, 포화자화 $M_{s}$, 잔류자화 $M_{r}$이 양이온 치환보다는 미세구조변화에 더 의존함을 알았다.
