Structural and electronic properties of an alkali metal fulleride, Rb1C60, was studied. In spite of the chain structure with shortdistance between balls along the crystallographic a-direction, the electronic structure calculation study with the X-ray defined crystal structure shows that Rb1C60 is a three-dimensional metal at room temperature. This result is different from the magnetic experiments in which the compound was found to behave as a quasi-one-dimensional metal. Partial Fermi surface nesting is supposed to be the reason for the metal-insulator transition found in Rb1C60 at ∼50 K.

Electrochemical studies of alkali metal cations $(Na^+, K^+, Rb^+, Cs^+)$ were performed in methanolic solutions of 18-crown-6 and tetrabutylammonium salts at dropping mercury electrodes (DME) and thin mercury film electrodes (TMFE). All the cations investigated were reduced reversibly at DME in the absence and presence of 18-crown-6, and in the latter the limiting currents were decreased and the reduction potentials shifted to the negative direction. The reduction potentials of the metal ions (0.2 mM) in the presence of the crown (10 mM) were - 2.14 $(Na^+)$, - 2.26 $(K^+)$, - 2.20 $(Rb^+) and - 2.14 $(Cs^+)$ V vs. SCE, respectively. The measured potentials were rationalized with ion recognition of the cations by the crown. Electroreduction at TMFE were highly irreversible. A new representation method of ion recognition is presented. In aqueous solutions, electroreduction of the alkali metal ions were characterized by adsorption.

알칼리(토)금속이 SCR(Selective Catalytic Reduction) 촉매 비활성화에 미치는영향을 미세구조, 촉매 비표면적, 기공 부피 변화, 탈질 성능 분석을 통해 규명하였다. 신촉매를 $350^{\circ}C$에서 6시간 동안 $H_3PO_4$, $K_2CO_3$, $Na_2CO_3$, $Ca(CH_3COO)_2{\cdot}H_2O$, $C_4H_6MgO_4{\cdot}4H_2O$ 수용액을 분사 시켜, 모사 피독된 SCR 촉매를 제조하였다. 피독 촉매 표면의 미세구조는 신촉매와 거의 유사한 형태를 보이지만, 비표면적과 기공 부피 변화를 신촉매와 비교하였을 때, Na < Mg < K < Ca < P 순으로 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 Na에 의해 피독된 촉매는 비표면적은 $10.20m^2/g$, 기공부피는 $0.061cm^2/g$ 정도 감소하였다. $150{\sim}450^{\circ}C$에서 신촉매 및 피독 촉매의 탈질성능을 평가한 결과, 알칼리 금속(K, Na)에 피독된 SCR 촉매가 가장 낮은 탈질효율을 보였으며, 알칼리 토금속(Ca, Mg)에 피독된 SCR 촉매는 알칼리 금속(K, Na)에 피독된 촉매에 비해 상대적으로 높은 탈질 효율을 보였으며, 인(P)에 의해 피독된 촉매는 SCR 신촉매와 거의 유사한 탈질 성능을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 SCR 촉매 비표면적이나 기공 부피 감소에 따른 물리적인 비활성화가 SCR 촉매 탈질 성능에 영향을 미치는 것으로 보인다.

the research has been made for alkali and metal element concentrations in top soils and plants from the abandoned coal mine, Keumsan, Chungnam Province. Samples of the top soil and plant (Miscanthus sinensis and Pinus rigida) were collected from the mine area in which was divided into t재 regions the polluted region influenced by the coal mining and the non-polluted region. pH of the top soils was 3.16-4.33 in the polluted region. Ca, Sr and P concentrations were high in the polluted soils, and Al and Ba concentrations were high in the non-polluted soils. No differences were found in K, Na and Ti concentrations. M. sinensis was higher in the element concentrations than P. rigida. In the average concentration of the alkali and metal element, M. sinensis showed high Cs and Na in the polluted region, and high Ba, Ca, K, Sr and concentrations in the non-polluted region. P. rigida had high Cs, Na and Rb concentrations in the polluted region. M. sinensis and P. rigida were higher in the root than above-ground part in the most element, but Ca and K. Ca, K and Na concentrations within both plants had higher than those of soils.

The complexation characteristics of tetramethyl (1) and tetraethyl esters (2) of p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene with alkali metal cations have been investigated by ab initio calculation. The structures of endo- or exocomplexation of the hosts in cone conformation with alkali metal ions have been optimized using HF/6-31G method followed by B3LYP/6-31G(d) single point calculation. B3LYP/6-31G(d) calculations suggest that exo-complexation efficiencies of sodium ion to the cavity of lower rim of hosts 1 and 2 are 27.1 and 25.8 kcal/mol better than that of potassium ion, respectively. The exo-complexation efficiencies of potassium ion to the cavity of lower rim of hosts 1 and 2 are 33.3 and 31.5 kcal/mol better than the endo-complexation inside the upper rim (four aromatic rings) as expected from the experimental results. B3LYP/6-31G(d) calculation of the ethyl ester 2 shows 29.5 and 30.8 kcal/mol better exo-complexation efficiency for both sodium and potassium ions than the methyl ester 1.

The complexation characteristics of mixed [2 + 2'] calix[4]aryl derivatives (3 and 4) with alkali metal cations were investigated by the mPW1PW91 (hybrid HF-DF) calculation method. The total electronic and Gibbs free energies of the various complexes (cone, partial-cone, 1,2-alternate, and 1,3-alternate) of sodium and potassium cations with 3 and 4 were analyzed and compared. The structures of the endo- or exo-complexes of the alkali metal cation with the host 3 were optimized using the mPW1PW91/6-31G(d) method, followed by mPW1PW91/6-311+G(d) calculations. The structures of the endo- or exo-complexes of the alkali metal cation with the host 4 were optimized using the mPW1PW91/6-31G(d,p) method. The mPW1PW91 calculated relative energies of the various conformations of the free hosts (3 and 4) suggest that the cone conformers of 3 and 4 are the most stable. The mPW1PW91calculations also suggest that the complexation efficiencies of the sodium ion with hosts 3 and 4 are about 24 and 27 kcal/mol better than those of the potassium ion, respectively. These trends are in good agreement with the experimental results. The exo-complexation efficiencies of the sodium ion toward the conformers of hosts 3 and 4 are roughly 14 and 17 kcal/mol better than those for the endo-$Na^+$-complexes of 3 and 4, respectively. The exo-complexation of the cone isomer of 3 with cation could be confirmed by the differences of the diagnostic C=O bands in the free host and its complex's IR spectra.

황피독에 저항성을 가지는 수성가스 전환반응용 CoMo 계열 촉매에 알칼리금속염 첨가가 반응활성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. 알칼리금속염의 음이온과 양이온의 각각에 대한 영향을 알아보기 위하여 크게 두 경우로 나누어 촉매를 제조하였다. 그 하나는, 양이온을 K로 고정시키고 음이온을 변형시킨 경우로서, 반응활성의 변화는 BET 표면적의 변화로 설명되었다. 다른 한 경우는, 음이온을 $NO_3^-$로 고정시키고 알칼리금속 이온을 변형시킨 경우로서, Li가 첨가된 촉매의 활성이 가장 뛰어났으며 다른 양이온의 경우에는 서로 비슷한 낮은 활성을 보였다. 알칼리금속의 첨가량의 변화에 따른 BET 표면적의 변화와 반응활성의 변화가 같은 경향을 보였다. 알칼리금속염의 양이온을 변화시킨 경우에는 BET 표면적과 정8면체 배위구조 속의 $Mo^{6+}$에 대한 정4면체 배위구조 속의 $Mo^{6+}$의 비, 즉 $Mo^6+[T]/Mo^{6+}[O]$ 값의 복합적인 관계를 통해 반응활성의 변화를 설명할 수 있었다.

This paper describes the design of a small size Alkali Metal Thermal to Electric Converter (AMTEC) which employs a capillary structure for recirculating sodium working fluid. The cycle is based on the simple and small capillary type ${\beta}"$ -alumina and wick tube element. The proposed cell consists of the 37 conversion elements with capillary tube of $50{\mu}m$ in diameter and the sealed cylindrical vessel of 22mm in outer diameter. Results on the cycle analysis of sodium flow and heat transfer in the cell showed that the expected power output was 4.65W and the conversion efficiency was 19% for the source temperature of 900K.

Free energy perturbation and molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to investigate the relative binding affinities of [17] ketonand (1) toward alkali metal cations in methanol. The binding affinities of 1 toward the alkali metal cations were calculated to be in the order Li+ > Na+ > K+ > Rb+ > Cs+, whereas our recent theoretically predicted and experimentally observed binding affinities for [18]starand (2) were in the order K+ > Rb+ > Cs+ > Na+ > Li+. The extremely different affinities of 1 and 2 toward smaller cations, Li + and Na+ , were explained in terms of the differences in their ability to change the conformation to accommodate cations of different sizes. The carbonyl groups constituting the central cavity of 1 can reorganize to form a cavity with the optimal M+ -O distance, even for the smallest Li+, without imposing serious strain on 1. The highest affinity of 1 for Li+ was predominantly due to the highest Coulombic attraction between the smallest Li+ and the carbonyl oxygens of 1.
