In this study, nano-sized cobalt oxide powder with an average particle size below 50 nm was prepared from a cobalt chloride solution by the spray pyrolysis process. The influences of reaction temperature on the properties of the generated powder were examined. The average particle size of the particles formed based on the spray pyrolysis process at a reaction temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ is roughly 20 nm. Moreover, most of these particles cannot appear with an independent type, thereby coexisting in a droplet type. When the reaction temperature increases to $800^{\circ}C$, the average particle size not only increases to roughly 40 nm but also shows a more dense structure while the ratio of particles which shows a polygonal form significantly increases. As the reaction temperature increases to $900^{\circ}C$, the distribution of the particles is from roughly 70 nm to 100 nm, while most of the particle surface is more intricately close and forms a polygonal shape. When the reaction temperature increases to $1000^{\circ}C$, the particle size distribution of the powder shows an existing form from 80 nm to at least 150 nm in an uneven form. As the reaction temperature increases, the XRD peak intensity gradually increases, yet the specific surface area gradually decreases.

In order to identify changes in the nature of the particles due to changes in the inflow rate of the raw material solution, the present study was intended to prepare nano-sized cobalt oxide ($Co_3O_4$) powder with an average particle size of 50 nm or less by spray pyrolysis reaction using raw cobalt chloride solution. As the inflow rate of the raw material solution increased, droplets formed by the pyrolysis reaction showed more divided form and the particle size distribution was more uneven. As the inflow rate of the solution increased from 2 to 10 ml/min, the average particle size of the formed particles increased from about 25 nm to 40 nm, while the average particle size did not show significant changes when the inflow rate increased from 10 to 50 ml/min. XRD analysis showed that the intensity of the XRD peaks increased remarkably when the inflow rate of the solution increased from 2 to 10 ml/min. On the other hand, the peak intensity stayed almost constant when the inflow rate increased from 10 to 50 ml/min. With the increase in the inflow rate from 2 to 10 ml/min, the specific surface area of the particles decreased by approximately 20 %. On the contrary, the specific surface area stayed constant when the inflow rate increased from 10 to 50 ml/min.

Cobalt coated tungsten carbide-cobalt composite powder has been prepared through wet chemical reduction method. The cobalt sulfate solution was converted to the cobalt chloride then the cobalt hydroxide. The tungsten carbide powders were added in to the cobalt hydroxide, the cobalt hydroxide was reduced and coated over tungsten carbide powder using hypo-phosphorous acid. Both the cobalt and the tungsten carbide phase peaks were evident in the tungsten carbide-cobalt composite powder by X-ray diffraction. The average particle size measured via scanning electron microscope, particle size analysis was around 380 nm and the thickness of coated cobalt was determined to be 30~40 nm by transmission electron microscopy.

본 연구에서는 코발트 염화물($CoCl_2$) 용액을 원료로 하여 분무열분해 반응에 의하여 평균입도 50 nm 이하의 코발트 산화물($Co_3O_4$) 분말을 제조하였으며 원료용액이 분사되는 노즐 팁의 크기 변화에 따른 입자들의 특성 변화를 파악하였다. 노즐 팁의 크기가 1 mm인 경우에는 형성된 대부분의 액적형태는 구형을 이루고 있으며 표면은 매우 치밀한 조직을 나타내고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 최종 형성된 입자들의 평균입도는 20 ~ 30 nm이었다. 노즐 팁의 크기가 2 mm인 경우에는 형성된 액적형태는 일부는 구형을 이루고 있었지만 상당 부분은 심하게 분열된 형태를 나타내고 있었다. 노즐 팁 크기가 5 mm인 경우에는 구형을 이루는 액적형태는 거의 존재하지 않았으며 거의 대부분 심하게 분열된 상태를 나타내고 있었다. 액적형태의 표면조직은 다른 노즐 팁 경우에 비하여 치밀함이 크게 감소하였다. 형성된 입자들의 평균입도는 약 25 nm이었다. 노즐 팁 크기가 1 mm로부터 2 mm 및 3 mm로 증가함에 따라 XRD 피크들의 강도는 거의 변화가 없는 반면 노즐 팁 크기가 5 mm로 증가되는 경우에는 피크의 강도가 현저히 감소하게 되었다. 노즐 팁 크기가 1 mm로부터 2 mm 로 증가함에 따라 입자들의 비표면적은 감소하였으며 5 mm로 증가되는 경우에는 비표면적이 현저히 증가하였다.

Spherical fine cobalt powders were fabricated by new liquid reduction method. Commercial cobalt sufate heptahydrate was used as raw material. Also ethylene glycol was used as solvent and hydrazine-sodium hypophosphite mixture was used as reduction agent for the new liquid reduction method. A plate shaped cobalt powders with an approximately 300 nm were prepared by a traditional wet ruduction method using distilled water as solvent and hydrazine. Spherical fine cobalt powders with an average size of $1-3{\mu}m$ were synthesized by a new liquid reduction method in 0.3M cobalt sulfate and 1.5M hydrazine-0.6M sodium hypophosphite mixture at 333K.

Using the spray pyrolysis process, nano-sized cobalt oxide powder with average particle size below 50 nm was prepared from cobalt chloride solution. The influences of the raw material solution on the properties of the powder formed examined. When the concentration of Co was low(20 g/L), the average particle size of the powder formed was roughly 20 nm, and the cohesion between these particles was significantly strong. When the concentration of Co increased to 100 g/L, the droplets nearly failed to exist in circular form and reflected a severely divided form. Furthermore, the average size of the particles formed was roughly 40 nm, and the particles reflected a polygonal form. When the solution was increased to nearly saturation level (Co at 200 g/L), the particle size distribution reflected significant unevenness due to severe droplet division while the surface also reflected significant unevenness. Furthermore, the average size of the particles formed increased significantly to 70 nm. The results of XRD analysis showed that the strength of the peaks reflected very little change when the concentration of Co was increased from 20 g/L to 50 g/L. Alternatively, when the concentration was increased to 100 g/L, the strength of the peaks increased compared to when the concentration was 50 g/L. However, when the concentration was increased to 200 g/L, the strength of the peaks failed to reflect significant change compared to when the concentration was 100 g/L. The specific surface area dramatically decreased by 30 % when the concentration of Co was increased from 20 g/L to 50 g/L. Alternatively, when the concentration of Co the solution increased to 100 g/L, the specific surface area decreased by roughly 15 %. Furthermore, when the concentration of Co was increased to nearly saturation level(200 g/L), the specific surface area decreased by roughly 35%.

초임계수를 이용한 금속산화물의 미세입자 제조에 대하여 연구하였다. 금속염 수용액으로는 cobalt nitrate solution과 manganese nitrate solution을 sample solution으로 선택하여 코발트산화물과 망간산화물 입자를 제조하였다. 얻어진 결과로부터 초임계수를 이용한 금속산화물 미세입자의 제조가 가능함을 확인할 수 있었으며, 초임계수 하에서는 매우 빠른 dehydration반응이 일어남을 관찰할 수 있었다. 짧은 반응시간(30~100 초)에도 불구하고 미세입자 ($0.5{\sim}2{\mu}m$)가 생성되었으며, 초임계수 공정에서는 mixer의 온도가 입자의 크기 및 분포에 큰 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 반응온도 조절을 통하여 입자의 크기를 제어할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this study, cobalt oxide ($Co_3O_4$)/graphene composites were synthesized through a simple chemical method at various calcination temperatures. We controlled the crystallinity, particle size and morphology of cobalt oxide on graphene materials by changing the annealing temperatures (200, 300, $400^{\circ}C$). The nanostructured $Co_3O_4$/graphene hybrid materials were studied to measure the electrochemical performance through cyclic voltammetry. The $Co_3O_4$/graphene sample obtained at $200^{\circ}C$ showed the highest capacitance of 396 $Fg^{-1}$ at 5 $mVs^{-1}$. The morphological structures of composites were also examined by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Annealing $Co_3O_4$/graphene samples in air at different temperatures significantly changed the morphology of the composites. The flower-like cobalt oxides with higher crystallinity and larger particle size were generated on graphene according to the increase of calcination temperature. A TEM analysis of the composites at $200^{\circ}C$ revealed that nanoscale $Co_3O_4$ (~7 nm) particles were deposited on the surface of the graphene. The improved electrochemical performance was attributed to a combination effect of graphene and pseudocapacitive effect of $Co_3O_4$.

이산화탄소를 수소와 일산화탄소로 전환시키는 이산화탄소 건조 개질반응은 대표적인 흡열반응이며 열역학적으로 불리한 반응으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위해 높은 열적 내구성과 수명 최적화에 적합한 귀금속계 촉매 개발 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으나 경제적인 어려움을 지니고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $Co/SiO_2$ 촉매에 Pt (0.02~0.2 wt%)와 La (2~20 wt%)을 각각 담지시켜 이산화탄소 건조 개질반응을 통해 우수한 활성과 경제적인 사용을 할 수 있는 함량을 확인 할 수 있었다. 그 결과, 0.04 wt% Pt 또는 9 wt% La을 담지하였을 경우에 각각 57%와 55%의 가장 높은 활성도를 보여주었다. 촉매 특성화에 의하여 0.04 wt% Pt와 9 wt% La이 첨가된 촉매의 코발트 입자 크기는 이 연구에서 가장 작은 입자 크기를 가진다는 것을 확인하였다. 그러므로 코발트의 입자 크기가 Pt와 La의 함량 때문에 촉매의 안정성과 반응성에 영향을 주는 것을 알 수 있었다.
