Sub-micron colloidal silica particles coated with nano-sized ceria were prepared by mixing of its silica and cerium salts hydrolysis, and modified by hydrothermal reaction. By using the slurries with and without hydrothermal modification containing above particles, oxide film coated on silicon wafer was polished. The modified slurries had higher polish rate due to increase of ceria fraction to silica through hydrothermal reaction. They revealed higher stability in wide range of pH $2\~10$ than ceria coated silica slurries without its modification.

Cerium oxide nanofibers have been of great interest in fundamental level study. We fabricated polyvinylpyrollidone (PVP) and cerium nitrate nanofibers composite applying a mixed solution of PVP and cerium nitrate hydrate (Ce(NO3)3) with various cerium concentration from 8.87 to 35.5wt% by electrospinning process. Electrospinning method is a simple and cost-effective process to make nanoand submicro nanofiber fabrication. We applied 0.69 kV/cm of electric field between the capillary and a drum collector covered with aluminum foil. Cerium oxide nanofibers were obtained after calcination of PVP/Ce(NO3)3 nanofibers composite at 573, 873 and 1273K, which were chosen by thermal gravimetry analysis. The obtained nanofibers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). When the viscosity of the electrospinning solution was high named over 60 cP, only nano and submicro-sized cerium oxide fibers were collected. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was performed for investigation of the chemical nature of the obtained ceria nanofibers. After we calcined the PVP/ceria nanocomposites, metallic cerium was oxidized to cerium oxide including ceria.

The high temperature performance of PEM type electrolyser at $120^{\circ}C$ based on covalently cross-linked sulfonated poly ether ether ketone (SPEEK) composie membrane was investigated. Ion conductivity and other properties of SPEEK membrane were improved by adding heteropoly acid and Ceria. The membrane electrode assemblies were prepared using commercial PtC and nano-sized $IrRuO_2$ catalyst by electro-spraying and decal process. Voltage efficiency of MEA equipped with SPEEK membrane was slightly better than that of $Nafion^{(R)}$ membrane, due to its higher proton conductivity at high temperature. The cell performance of MEA with CL-SPEEK/Cs-TSiA/Ceria is 1.71 V at $1A/cm^2$ and $120^{\circ}C$.

$Gd_2O_3$-doped $CeO_2$(GDC) solid solutions have been considered as a promising materials for electrolytes in intermediate-temperature solid oxide fuel cells. In this study, the nano-sized GDC powder with average panicle size of 69nm was prepared by a high energy ball milling process and its sintering behavior was investigated. Heat-treatment at $1200^{\circ}C$ of nano-sized GDC powder mixture led to GDC solid-solution. The enhanced densification over 96% of relative density was obtained after sintering at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 2h. It was found that the sinterability of GDC powder could be significantly improved by the introduction of a high energy ball milling process.

세리아 입자의 합성을 위하여 분무열분해 시 유기 첨가제인 EG(ethylene glycol)과 CA(citric acid)를 첨가하여 중공성 및 다공성을 갖는 $CeO_2$ 마이크로 크기의 입자를 제조하였으며 첨가량에 따른 특성을 비교하였다. 분무열분해과정, 후소성 및 볼밀링 과정을 적절히 조합하여 만든 6가지 경로에 의해 나노 크기의 세리아 입자를 합성하였다. 6가지 경로 중 EG 및 CA가 0.05M 첨가된 Ce(III)가 전구체 수용액을 이용하여 분무열분해${\rightarrow}$후소성${\rightarrow}$볼밀링${\rightarrow}$후소성의 경로에 의해 얻어진 $CeO_2$ 입자에 대해 TEM 분석으로 측정한 입자의 평균 크기 24 nm(편차=3.8 nm)는 Debye-Scherrer식에 의해 계산된 1차 입자의 크기(20 nm)와 가장 유사한 크기를 나타내었다. 제조된 나노입자분말의 형태적 및 구조적 특성을 알아보기 위하여 SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy), XRD(X-Ray Diffractometer) 및 TEM(Transmission Electron Microscopy)을 통하여 특성을 분석하였다.

Mica-glass ceramics has features such as micro-sized crystals, high strength, chemical resistance, semitransparent optical properties, etc. Due to its superior material properties, mica glass ceramics have increasing applications in dental and medical components, insulation boards, chemical devices, etc. In many applications, especially for dental and medical components, ultra-precise polishing is required. However, it is known to be a very difficult-to-grind material because of its high hardness and brittle properties. Thus, in this study, a newly developed ultra-precise polishing method is applied to obtain nano-level surface roughness of the mica glass ceramics using magnetorheological (MR) fluids and nano abrasives. Nano-sized ceria particles were used for the polishing of the mica glass ceramics. A series of experiments were performed under various polishing conditions, and the results were analyzed. A very fine surface roughness of Ra=6.127 nm could be obtained.

본 연구에서는 나노 크기의 세리아를 사마리움으로 일부 도핑(samaria-doped ceria(SDC))한 분말을 urea를 첨가제로 사용하여 수열합성법으로 합성하였으며 그 특성들을 XRD, FESEM, TEM 등을 통해 관찰하였다. 합성 시간 및 합성온도가 증가함에 따라 분말의 결정성 및 입도가 증가함을 확인하였다. 또한 이온전도도의 측정을 통해 합성된 SDC 파우더가 중 저온(600~$800^{\circ}C$) 부근에서 0.1 S/cm의 이온전도도를 보여 중 저온형 고체산화물 연료전지(IT-SOFC)의 고체 전해질에 적합함을 확인할 수 있었다. 합성된 SDC 분말은 중·저온 고체산화물 연료전지의 음극지지형 전해질로 사용하기 위해 전기영동 증착 방법을 이용하여 다공성 NiO-SDC 기판 위에 SDC 박막 증착을 시도하였다. 증착 용액은 acetone을 용매로 사용하고, 20V의 인가전압으로 10초간 증착한 결과 얇고 치밀하며 기공이 없는 SDC 박막이 형성되었음을 FESEM 분석을 통해 확인할 수 있었다.

Nano-sized gadolinium-doped ceria (GDC)/nickel particle-dispersed $La_ySr_{1-y}Ti_{1-x}Fe_xO_3$ (LSFTO)-based composite solid oxide fuel cell anodes were fabricated by an infiltration method and the effects of the GDC/Ni nanoparticles on the anode polarization resistance and cell performance were investigated in terms of the infiltration time and nickel content. The anodic polarization resistance of the LSFTO anode was significantly enhanced by GDC and/or Ni infiltration and it decreased with increasing infiltration time and Ni content, respectively. It is believed that the observed phenomena are associated with enhancement of the ionic conductivity and catalytic activity in the nanocomposite anodes by the addition of GDC and Ni. Power densities of cells with the LSFTO and LSFTO-GDC/Ni nanocomposite anodes were 150 and $300mW/cm^2$ at $800^{\circ}C$, respectively.
