  • The demands to improve the performance of the vanadium redox flow battery have attracted an intense research on modifying the carbon-based electrode. In this study, the surface of graphite felt was reformed, using cobalt oxide. The cobalt oxide was implanted into graphite felt during hydrothermal and two step heat treatments. The cobalt was deposited by hydrothermal method and the two step heat treatments made lots of holes on the graphite felt surface which is called as porous surface. The porous surface acts as an electrochemically active site for the cathodic reaction of vanadium redox flow battery. The reformed electrode shows the electrochemically improved performance compared with the pristine electrode.

  • Spherical monosized pure aluminum (Al) particles are successfully fabricated by the pulsated orifice ejection method (POEM). The surface reaction between Al and the graphite crucible is investigated by analysing the microstructure and chemical composition of the materials. No significant chemical reaction occurs between Al and the graphite owing to the crystalline Al oxide (${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$) layer generated in the initial state. The ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ layer is clearly observed in all regions between the Al particles and graphite via transmission electron microscopy and confirmed by the selected area diffraction pattern. The morphology of the ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ layer perfectly follows the surface morphology of the graphite crucible, which showed nanoscale roughness. This implies that molten Al could not directly contact graphite even though the surface of the crucible became rough to some extent. However, this passivation phenomenon allowed the successful fabrication of monosized pure Al particles. Therefore, POEM is a useful process at least to manufacture monosized pure Al particles.

  • In this work, the reduced graphene nanosheets were synthesized from pre-exfoliated graphite flakes. The pristine graphite flakes were firstly pre-exfoliated to graphite nanoplatelets in the presence of acetic acid. The obtained graphite nanoplatelets were treated by Hummer's method to produce graphite oxide sheets and were finally exfoliated to graphene nanosheets by ultrasonication and reduction processes. The prepared graphene nanosheets were studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). From the results, it was found that the preexfoliation process showed significant influence on preparation of graphite oxide sheets and graphene nanosheets. The prepared graphene nanosheets were applied to the preparation of conductive materials, which yielded a greatly improved electrical resistance of $200{\Omega}/sq$.

  • Graphene oxide has been synthesized by microwave-assisted exfoliation of graphite oxide prepared by modified Hummers method. Graphite was oxidized in a solution of $H_2O_2$ and $KMnO_4$ at $65{\sim}80^{\circ}C$, followed by 10 % $H_2O_2$ solution treatment at $80{\sim}90^{\circ}C$. The graphite oxide was exfoliated under microwave irradiation of 1 kW and was reduced to graphene effectively by hydrazine hydrate ($H_4N_2{\cdot}H_2O$) treatment. The exfoliation of graphene oxide was significantly affected by the microwave irradiation on (heating)/off (cooling) period. An on/off period of 10 s/20 s resulted in much more effective exfoliation than that of 5 s/10 s with the same total treatment time of 10 min. This can be explained by the higher exfoliation temperature of 10 s/20 s. Repetition of the graphite oxidation and exfoliation processes also enhanced the exfoliation of graphene oxide. The thickness of the final graphene products was estimated to be several layers. The D band peaks of the Raman spectra of the final graphene products were quite low, suggesting a high crystal quality.

  • 졸-겔법을 이용하여 주석산화물을 흑연입자 표면에 도포하고 $400-600^{\circ}C$에서 열처리하여 미세결정구조를 갖는 리튬이온 전지용 주석산화물 전극을 제조하였다. 도포 된 주석산화물의 양은 $2.25 wt\%\~11.1 wt\%$로 조절하여 실험한 결과 주석산 화물의 함량에 따라 방전용량이 증가하고 또한 초기의 비가역 용랑도 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 싸이클에 따른 주석 산화물 전극의 방전용량은 propylene carbonate(PC) 계 전해액에서도 초기 싸이클에서 350mAh/g 이상, 30 싸이클 후 에서는 300mAh/g을 나타낸 반면, 표면개질이 되지 않은 흑연전극의 경우에는 140mAh/g의 방전용량을 나타내었다. 충방전 속도를 C/5에서 C/2로 빠르게 했을 때 주석산화물 전극과 흑연전극의 방전용량은 초기 용량의 $92\%,\;77\%$로 각각 나타났다. 이러한 전극 특성의 향상은 주석산화물이 리튬이온과 반응하여 형성된 리튬 옥사이드$(Li_2O)$부동태 피막이 흑연전극의 탈리 현상을 막고 또한 환원된 주석이 흑연입자간의 전기전도를 원활하게 하여 전극의 전류분포를 향상시키기 때문인 것으로 해석되었다.

  • In this work, we prepared Mg nanoparticles loaded graphite oxide (Mg-G) as a function of Mg content in order to investigate hydrogen storage behaviors. The structure and morphology of the Mg-G samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The textural properties of the samples were evaluated using $N_2$/77 K adsorption isotherms. The hydrogen adsorption capacities were investigated at 298 K/10 MPa. As a result, the hydrogen adsorption capacities of the Mg-G were enhanced with increasing the Mg content. Therefore, it was found that the presence of Mg on graphite surfaces created hydrogen-favorable sites, resulting in enhancing the hydrogen adsorption capacity.

  • We synthesized a new composite of poly sodium 4-styrenesulfonate intercalated graphene oxide for energy storage devices by controlling oxidation time in the synthesis of graphite oxide. Specific capacitance was improved from 20 F/g of the previous composites to 88 F/g of the new composite at the current density of 0.3 A/g. The capacitance retention was 94% after 3000 cycles, indicating that the new composites of high cyclic stability, prominent performance as electric double layer capacitor, and even low resistance could be an excellent carbon based electrode for further energy storage devices.

  • The size and the physical properties of graphene oxide sheets were controlled by changing the oxidation temperature of graphite. Graphite oxide (GO) samples were prepared at different oxidation temperatures of $20^{\circ}C$, $27^{\circ}C$ and $35^{\circ}C$ using a modified Hummers' method. The carbon-to-oxygen (C/O) ratio and the average size of the GO sheets varied according to the oxidation temperature: 1.26 and 12.4 ${\mu}m$ at $20^{\circ}C$, 1.24 and 10.5 ${\mu}m$ at $27^{\circ}C$, and 1.18 and 8.5 ${\mu}m$ at $35^{\circ}C$. This indicates that the C/O ratio and the average size of the graphene oxide sheets respectively increase as the oxidation temperature decreases. Moreover, it was observed that the surface charge and optical properties of the graphene oxide sheets could be tuned by changing the temperature. This study demonstrates the tunability of the physical properties of graphene oxide sheets and shows that the properties depend on the functional groups generated during the oxidation process.

  • During the last half decade, chemically modified graphene (CMG) has been studied in the wide range of applications, such as polymer composites, energy-related materials, sensors, 'paper'-like materials, field-effect transistors (FET), inks, actuators, and biomedical applications due to its excellent electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties. Chemical modification of graphene oxide, which is generated from graphite oxide, which is produced by simple oxidation of graphite, has been a promising route to achieve mass production of CMG platelets via their colloidal suspensions. Graphene oxide contains a range of reactive oxygen functional groups, which renders it a good candidate for use in the aforementioned applications (among others) through chemical functionalizations. In this presentation, I will discuss my recent research activities on the fundamental chemistry of graphite oxide, as well as novel applications based on CMGs. Topics will include the chemical structure of CMGs and colloidal suspensions of CMG platelets, as well as a wide variety of applications.

  • 우수한 물리적, 전기적 특성과 독특한 물성의 특성을 갖고 있는 그래핀의 연구가 활발히 진행되면서, 대표적인 화학적 박리방법인 Hummer's 방법을 응용하여 고품질의 산화 그래핀의 대량생산 가능성을 검토하였다. 본 연구에서는 산화 그래핀의 제조에 있어서 천연흑연, 결정성 흑연, 팽창흑연을 사용하였으며, 과망간산칼륨의 첨가량, 반응온도, 반응시간을 달리하였다. 또한, 제조된 산화 그래핀의 품질을 알기위해 푸리에 변환 적외선 분광분석(fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, FT-IR), 라만분광기(raman spectroscopy), 투과 전자 현미경(transmission electron microscopy, TEM)을 이용하였으며, 결정성 흑연이 가장 좋은 품질을 나타내었다. 제조된 산화 그래핀 정제를 위해 유기용매를 사용하였으며, 에너지분산형 분광분석법(energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, EDS)를 이용하여 분석한 결과 사이클로헥세인을 이용한 정제가 산 폐액과 폐수의 잔류가 거의 없었다. 본 연구에서 제시한 산화 그래핀 제조방법과 유기용매를 이용한 정제는 보다 친환경적인 방법으로 필름, 방열, 코팅제 등 다양한 산업분야에 응용이 가능할 것으로 예상된다.
