다양한 조성의 이온성액체(Ionic liquid, ILs)를 사용하여 다공성 산화세륨 입자를 제조하였다. 이온성액체의 조성에 따라서 제조된 산화세륨 입자의 세공구조 및 결정의 모양이 달라지는 것을 관찰하였다. 이온성액체에서 음이온의 수소결합력 세기는 산화세륨의 세공을 형성하는데 결정적인 요인으로 작용하며, 양이온인 알킬 그룹의 길이에 따라 산화세륨 입자의 세공 크기 및 비표면적이 변하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 여러 가지 이온성액체 중에서 1-Buthyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate가 다공성 산화세륨 입자를 제조하는데 가장 효과적이었다.

대표적인 비암모니아성 선택적 촉매환원반응기인 H₂-SCR의 활용성을 높이기 위하여 Ce를 조촉매로 활용한 PtNi/CeO₂-W-TiO₂의 촉매 분말을 합성하고 다공성 금속 구조(porous metal structure, PMS)에 코팅하여 선택적 촉매 환원에 의한 NOx 제거 특성을 평가하였다. CeO₂를 조촉매로 사용한 H₂-SCR은 CeO₂를 사용하지 않은 경우에 비해 더 높은 NOx 제거 효율을 나타내었으며, CeO₂ 담지율 10 wt%에서는 반응온도 90℃에서 가장 높은 제거효율을 보였다. 한편, 촉매구조체인 PMS의 촉매 코팅량이 증가함에 따라 NOx 제거효율은 90℃ 이하에서는 향상되었으나, 120℃ 이상에서는 감소하는 경향을 보였고 공간속도를 4,000 h^-1에서 20,000 h^-1로 변경한 경우, 120℃이상의 온도에서 NOx 제거 효율이 향상되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The control of microstructure is critical for the porous fuel particles used for infiltrating actinide nuclides. This study concerns the effect of heating processes on properties and microstructure of the fuel particles. The uniform gel precursor beads were synthesized by a microfluidic sol-gel process and then the porous $CeO_2$ microspheres, as a surrogate for the ceramic nuclear fuel particles, were obtained by heating treatment of the gel precursors. The fabricated $CeO_2$ microspheres have a narrow size distribution and good sphericity due to the feature of microfluidics. The effects of heating processes parameters, such as heating mode and peak temperatures on the properties of microspheres were studied in detail. An optimized heating mode and the peak temperature of $650^{\circ}C$ were selected to produce porous $CeO_2$ microspheres. The optimized heating mode can avoid the appearance of broken or crack microspheres in the heating process, and as-prepared porous microspheres were of suitable pore size distribution and pore volume for loading minor actinide (MA) solution by an infiltration method that is used for fabrication of MA-bearing nuclear fuel beads. After the infiltration process, $1000^{\circ}C$ was selected as the final temperature to improve the compressive strength of microspheres.

Capsule free hot isostatic pressing (HIPing) of 12 mol% $CeO_2-88 mo% ZrO_2 (12CeO_2-88ZrO_2)$ powder was conducted at 1100~$1200^{\circ}C$ using the powder crystallized in supercritical methanol followed by supercritical drying. Porous $12CeO_2-88ZrO_2$ ceramics with ~35% open porosity, micropore diameter of ~23 nm and a narrow pore size distribution were fabricated by capsule free hot isostatic pressing at $1100^{\circ}C$. The porosity increased with decrease in HIPing temperature and was accompanied by a steady decrease in fracture strength.

For theinvestigation of MgO addition effect on 12Ce-TZP ceramics, MgO-CeO2-ZrO2 ceramics was fabricated using commercial powders under sintering condition of 130$0^{\circ}C$-1$600^{\circ}C$ for 2hr. Fully tetragonal phase could be obtained by proper heat treatment and MgO addition amount. Minor cubic phase was appeared in relatively high MgO content composition at each sintering temperature. As alloying amount of MgO increased, tetragonal stability increased and grain size decreased. Grain size dependence on MgO content was verified by SEM observation of fractured surface. Surface bloating was observed from the 2 m/o to 6m/o in the temperature range of 150$0^{\circ}C$ to 1$600^{\circ}C$. In spite of very porous microstructure owing to surface bloating, 100% TZP could be maintained in 2.0m/o MgO composition by heat treatment of 150$0^{\circ}C$. This result indicated that MgO was more powerful stabilizer than CeO2. Mechanical proprties of MgO-CeO2-ZrO2 ceramics were consistent with the stability observation of tetragonal phase very well.

Porous ceramic membranes consisting of $Ce_{1-x}Y_xO_{2-{\delta}}$ were developed for hydrogen permeation tests. Various amounts (x = 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2) of yttrium were doped to ceria to study the effect of yttrium doping on ceria membranes on various properties, including hydrogen permeability. $Ce_{1-x}Y_xO_{2-{\delta}}$ powder was synthesized by the sol-gel method. These membranes were fabricated by pressing and sintering at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 6 h. As the amount of yttrium increased, the grain size of the membrane decreased. Hydrogen permeability was improved as the yttrium content increased. Selective permeability of hydrogen compared to CO is explained by electric conductivity. As the temperature rose, both the hydrogen perm-selectivity and electric conductivity on $Ce_{0.8}Y_{0.2}O_{1.9}$ improved.

Ceramic membranes of the supported $TiO_2-CeO_2$ were prepared by dip-coating method on an $\alpha-Al_2O_3$ porous substrate. The mean pore diameter of an alumina support was 0.125 um. The mean particle diameter of $TiO_2-CeO_2$ top layer varied with firing temperature and ranged from 20 to 85 nm. The thermal stability of the composite membranes was studied from their surface microstructure after calcination at $600-900^{\circ}C$. The supported $TiO_2-CeO_2$ composite membranes exhibited much higher heat resistance than the $TiO_2$ membrane.

Two-step water splitting thermochemical cycle with $CeO_2$ foam device was investigated by using a solar simulator composed of 2.5 kW Xe-Arc lamp and mirror reflector. The hydrogen production of $CeO_2$ foam device depending on reaction temperature of Thermal-Reduction step and Water-Decomposition step was analyzed, and the hydrogen production of $CeO_2$ and $NiFe_2O_4/ZrO_2$ foam devices was compared. As a result, the amount of reduced $CeO_2$ considerably varies according to the reaction temperature of Thermal-Reduction step. and hydrogen production was not much when the amount of reduced $CeO_2$ decreased even if the reaction temperature of Water-Decomposition step was high. Therefore, it is very important to keep the reaction temperature of Thermal-Reduction step high in two-step thermochemical cycle with $CeO_2$.

금속산화물을 이용한 2단계 산화/환원 반응은 GTL, CTL 의 반응원료인 합성가스 및 수소 생산기술이다. 이 기술은 메탄을 환원제로 사용함으로써 비교적 저온에서 산화/환원 반응을 할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 하지만 반복 사이클의 시연에서 금속산화물의 소결현상으로 인한 활성저하가 이 기술의 문제점 중의 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 2.5 kW Xenon arc lamp 가 설치된 solar simulator를 사용 하였으며, 무기물 다공성 폼 (SiC foam)및 유기물 다공성 폼 (Ni, Cufoam)에 $CeO_2/ZrO_2$ 를 코팅하여 연속적인 합성가스 및 수소 생산 가능성을 알아보았다. 반응 전 후의 $CeO_2/ZrO_2$ 의 결정 구조를 SEM 과 XRD 를 통해 분석하였다.

다공성 알루미나 소결체내부로 3Y-TZP 및 12Ce-TZP 전구체를 각각 액상침투시킴으로써 2종류의 $Al_2O_3/TZP$복합체를 제조하였다. 소량의 (~11.0 wt%) TZP의 첨가는 Al2O3소결체 ($1600^{\circ}C$, 2시간)의 강도 (19~59%)와 파괴인성(14~157%)을 증가시켰다. 3Y-TZP의 첨가는 복합체의 강도의 향상에 12Ce-TZP의 첨가는 인성의 향상에 보다 효과적이었다. 침투도니 TZP는 복합체의 내부보다 표면에 집중되었으며, 그 결과 이곳에서의 입성장에 빨랐고 $Al_2O_3$의입성장 억제효과도 상대적으로 뛰어났다. 입계 및 입내균열전파가 일어났으나 $Al_2O_3/12Ce-TZP$의 경우가 $Al_2O_3/3Y-TZP$에 비하여 입계파괴가 우세하였다
