Monodispersed porous NiO and $Co_3O_4$ microcapsules with a hollow core were synthesized using SBA-16 silica sol and PS as a hard template. The porous hollow microcapsules were characterized by XRD, TEM and $N_2$ adsorption/desorption analysis. After $H_2$ reduction of metal oxide microspheres, they were conducted as an active catalyst in the reduction of chiral butylronitrile and cyanobenzene. The mesoporous metals having a hollow structure showed a higher activity than a nonporous metal powder and an impregnated metal on the carbon support.

본 연구에서는 구형의 폴리스티렌 구슬을 틀로 사용하여, 크기분포가 좁으면서 속은 비어있고 벽이 다공성인 구조의 탄소 마이크로 캡슐을 합성하였다. 폴리스티렌의 표면은 무기물인 실리카졸이 쉽게 입혀질 수 있도록 폴리비닐피롤리돈(PVP)을 코팅하여 변조하였다. PVP가 코팅된 PS 마이크로 입자표면에 SBA-16 졸을 부착시킨 다음, 실리카층에 존재하는 중간 크기의 세공 내에 탄소원을 채워 넣는 음각식 형뜨기법을 적용함으로써 속이 빈 구조의 탄소 마이크로캡슐을 제조하였다. 탄화과정을 거치고 틀로 사용한 다공성 실리카입자를 HF로 용해하면, 좁은 입자크기분포를 갖는 중간세공이 함유된 계란껍질형의 탄소입자를 얻을 수 있었다. 계란껍질형 탄소 마이크로캡슐 입자의 다공성과 전기화학적 특성은 XRD, SEM, TEM, 질소분자 흡/탈착분석법 및 cyclic voltammetry법으로 평가하였다. 이들 탄소입자는 슈퍼캐패시터와 같은 전자재료로서 유효하게 사용될 만한 높은 전기전도도와 용량을 나타내었다.

In this paper, the buckling of micro sandwich hollow circular plate is investigated with the consideration of the porous core and piezoelectric layer reinforced by functionally graded (FG)carbon nano-tube. For modeling the displacement field of sandwich hollow circular plate, the high-order shear deformation theory (HSDT) of plate and modified couple stress theory (MCST) are used. The governing differential equations of the system can be derived using the principle of minimum potential energy and Maxwell's equation that for solving these equations, the Ritz method is employed. The results of this research indicate the influence of various parameters such as porous coefficients, small length scale parameter, distribution of carbon nano-tube in piezoelectric layers and temperature on critical buckling load. The purpose of this research is to show the effect of physical parameters on the critical buckling load of micro sandwich plate and then optimize these parameters to design structures with the best efficiency. The results of this research can be used for optimization of micro-structures and manufacturing different structure in aircraft and aerospace.

The achievement of high gas permeability is a key factor in the development of porous SiC ceramics for applications of hot gas filter, vacuum chuck, and air spindle. However, few reports on the gas permeability of porous SiC ceramics can be found in the literature. In this paper, porous SiC ceramics were fabricated at temperatures ranging from $1600^{\circ}C$ to $1800^{\circ}C$ using the mixing powders of SiC, silicon, carbon and boron as starting materials. In some samples, expanded hollow microspheres as a pore former were used to make a cellular pore structure. It was possible to produce Si bonded SiC ceramics with porosities ranging from 42% to 55%. The maximum bending strength was 58MPa for the carbon content of 0.2 wt% and sintering temperature of $1700^{\circ}C$. The increase of air permeability was accelerated by addition of hollow microsphere as a pore former.

Microtube-like porous carbon (MPC) and tube-like porous carbon-sulfur (MPC-S) composites were synthesized by carbonizing milkweed pappus with sulfur, and they were used as cathodes for lithium-sulfur batteries. The morphology and uniformity of these materials were characterized using X-ray powder diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy with an energy-dispersive X-ray analyzer, thermogravimetric analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectrometry. The electrochemical performance of the MPC-S cathodes was measured using the charge/discharge cycling performance, C rate, and AC impedance. The composite cathodes with 93.8 wt.% sulfur exhibited a stable specific capacity of 743 mAh g^-1 after 200 cycles at a 0.5 C.

The aim of this study is to improve the purification efficiency of odor gas by increasing the contact area between an odor gas and adsorbent. To analyze the flow in the adsorption tower, the flow characteristics in the hollow activated carbon-adsorption tower are identified by applying the loss model, which is a porous flow analysis model. The flow characteristics are investigated for pressure loss, velocity distribution, turbulent kinetic energy, and residence time distribution. The results show that the hollow adsorption tower performs better than the solid adsorption tower in terms of pressure loss and performance. The inner diameter of the hollow region inside the adsorption tower is 0.64 m (Di/Do = 0.37). Furthermore, the adsorbent performance is unaffected even when adsorbent stages are installed to replace the adsorbent.

본 연구는 ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ 중공입자로 구성된 다공성 1차원 나노구조체를 전기방사 공정 및 두단계의 후 열처리 과정을 통해 주형법과 커켄달 효과를 동시 적용하여 합성했다. 열처리 과정 중, 수 nm의 치밀한 Fe 금속입자는 커켄달 효과에 의해 중공구조를 갖는 ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ 입자로 최종 변환되었다. 또한, 전기방사 용액에 첨가한 PS 나노비드는 첫 열처리 과정 중 분해되어 구조체 내 수많은 기공을 형성, 환원 및 산화를 위한 가스들이 구조체 내부로 원활히 침투될 수 있는 역할을 했다. 최종 생성물인 ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ 중공입자로 구성된 다공성 1차원 구조체를 리튬 이차전지의 음극활물질로 적용한 결과, $1.0A\;g^{-1}$의 높은 전류밀도에도 불구하고 30 사이클 후 $776mA\;h\;g^{-1}$의 높은 방전 용량을 나타냈다. 이와 같은 우수한 리튬 저장특성은 본 구조체를 구성하는 중공형 ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ 입자와 입자들 사이의 나노기공으로부터 기인한 결과이다. 본 연구에서 제안한 중공 입자로 구성된 다공성 1차원 나노구조체 합성 방법은 다양한 전이금속 화합물 조성에 적용 가능하므로 에너지 저장 분야를 포함한 여러 분야에 응용 가능하다.

탄소막은 고분자막에 비해 높은 선택성과 투과성, 열적, 화학적 안정성을 가지고 있어 기체 분리, 특히 휘발성 유기화합물(VOCs) 분리막으로 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 활성탄소중공사막은 기공 표면(pore wall)에 형성된 흡착성 미세기공에 의해 선택적으로 응축성 성분이 흡착, 확산되는 흡착-확산 기구에 의해 흡착성-비흡착성 물질이 분리된다. 본 연구에서는 다공성 알루미나 중공사막 지지체에 phenolic resin (novolac type)을 코팅한 후 산화, 탄화 및 활성화 등의 열분해 과정을 통해 막 표면과 기공 표변에 흡착성 미세기공이 형성된 활성탄소중공사막을 제조하였다. 또한 열분해 조건에 따른 phenol/alumina 복합 활성탄소중공사막의 물리적 특성과 기체 투과특성에 대해 살펴보았다. 그 결과, 제조된 phenol/alumina 복합 활성탄소중공사막이 휘발성 유기물질의 대부분을 차지하고 있는 탄화수소를 선택적으로 분리 회수하는데 매우 효과적인 특성을 갖고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 개발된 phenol/alumina 복합 활성탄소중공 사막은 VOCs의 분리, 농축에 매우 효과적으로 활용 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

Nanoengineered materials with advanced architectures are critical building blocks to modulate conventional material properties or amplify interface behavior for enhanced device performance. While several techniques exist for creating one dimensional heterostructures, electrospinning has emerged as a versatile, scalable, and cost-effective method to synthesize ultra-long nanofibers with controlled diameter (a few nanometres to several micrometres) and composition. In addition, different morphologies (e.g., nano-webs, beaded or smooth cylindrical fibers, and nanoribbons) and structures (e.g., core-.shell, hollow, branched, helical and porous structures) can be readily obtained by controlling different processing parameters. Although various nanofibers including polymers, carbon, ceramics and metals have been synthesized using direct electrospinning or through post-spinning processes, limited works were reported on the compound semiconducting nanofibers because of incompatibility of precursors. In this work, we combined electrospinning and galvanic displacement reaction to demonstrate cost-effective high throughput fabrication of ultra-long hollow semiconducting chalcogen and chalcogenide nanofibers. This procedure exploits electrospinning to fabricate ultra-long sacrificial nanofibers with controlled dimensions, morphology, and crystal structures, providing a large material database to tune electrode potentials, thereby imparting control over the composition and shape of the nanostructures that evolved during galvanic displacement reaction.

Micro-/macroporous carbons (MMCs) were prepared using a hollow mesoporous silica capsule (HMSC) as a sacrificial hard template. The carbonization process after the infiltration of furfuryl alcohol into the template-free HMSC material afforded MMC materials in high yield. The hard template HMSC could be removed by HF etching without deteriorating the structure of MMC. The MMC materials were fully characterized by SEM, TEM, PXRD, XPS, and Raman spectroscopy. The replication processes were so successful that MMCs exhibited a hollow capsular structure with multimodal microporosity. Detailed textural properties of MMC materials were investigated by volumetric $N_2$ adsorption-desorption analysis at 77 K. To explore the gas sorption abilities of MMCs for other gases, $H_2$ and $CO_2$ sorption analyses were also performed at various temperatures. The multimodal MMC materials were found to be good sorbents for both $H_2$ and $CO_2$ at low pressure.
