Ultrafine NiO/YSZ (Yttria Stabilized Zirconia) powders were made by using a glycine nitrate process which is used as anode material for solid oxide fuel cells. The specific surface areas of synthesized NiO/YSZ powders were examined with controlling pH of a precursor solution and the content of glycine. The binding of glycine with metal nitrates occurring in the precursor solution was analyzed by using FTIR. The characteristics of synthesized powders were examined with X-ray diffraction(XRD) Brunauer Emmett Teller with N2 absorption. scanning electron microscopy (SEM). and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Ultrafine NiO/YSZ powders of 15-18 m2/g were obtained through GNP when the content of glycine was controlled to 1 or 2 times the stoichiometric ratio in the precursor solutions. Strongly acid precursor solution increased the specific surface area of the synthesized powders. This is suggested to be the increased binding of metal nitrates and glycine under a strong acid solution of pH=0.5 that lets glycine consist of mainly the amine group of {{{{ { NH}`_{3 } ^{+ } }}. After sintering and reducing treatment of NiO/YSZ powders synthesized by GNP the Ni/YSZ pellet showed ideal microstructure where very fine Ni particles of 3-5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were distributed uniformly and fine pore around Ni metal particles was formed. leading to anincrease of the triple phase boundary among gas Ni and YSZ.

Ultrafine NiO/YSZ composite powders were prepared by using a glycine nitrate process for anode material of solid oxide fuel cells. The specific surface areas of synthesized NiO/YSZ composite powders were examined with controlling pH of a precursor solution and the content of glycine. The characteristics of synthesized composite powders were examined with X-ray diffractometer, a BET method with N$_2$absorption, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The strongly acid precursor solution increased the specific surface area of the synthesized composite powders. This is suggested to be caused by the increased binding of metal ions and glycine under a strong acid solution of pH=0.5 that lets glycine consist of mainly the amine group of NH$_3$$\^$+/. After sintering and reducing treatment of NiO/YSZ composite powders synthesized by GNP, the Ni/YSZ pellet showed ideal micro-structure very fine Ni parties of 3-5${\mu}$m were distributed uniformly and fine pores around Ni metal particles were formed, thes, leading to an increase of the triple phase boundary among gas Ni and YSZ.

Ceramic powder, such as MgO, is added as a binder to prepare the green compacts of molten salts of an electrolyte for a thermal battery. Despite the addition of a binder, when the thickness of the electrolyte decreases to improve the battery performance, the problem with the unintentional short circuit between the anode and cathode still remains. To improve the current powder molding method, a new type of electrolyte separator with porous MgO preforms is prepared and characteristics of the thermal battery are evaluated. A Spherical PMMA polymer powder is added as a pore-forming agent in the MgO powder, and an organic binder is used to prepare slurry appropriate for tape casting. A porous MgO preform with $300{\mu}m$ thickness is prepared through a binder burnout and sintering process. The particle size of the starting MgO powder has an effect, not on the porosity of the porous MgO preform, but on the battery characteristics. The porosity of the porous MgO preforms is controlled from 60 to 75% using a pore-forming agent. The batteries prepared using various porosities of preforms show a performance equal to or higher than that of the pellet-shaped battery prepared by the conventional powder molding method.

[ $Bi_xCe_{l-x}O_{2-x/2}$ ](BD C : Bismuth Doped Ceria) powders with x = 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 were synthesized using the Glycine Nitrate Process (GNP). They were then calcined at $500^{\circ}C$ for 2 hand sintered in a pellet or rod form at 900, 1000 or $1100^{\circ}C$ for 4 h for characterization as the alternative electrolyte material for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells. The BDC powder consisted of a single phase of $CeO_2-Bi_2O_3$ solid solution in the as-synthesized state as well as in the as-calcined state with a mean powder size of 4.5nm in the former state and 6.5 - 10.1nm in the latter. On the contrary, the second phase of $\alpha-Bi_2O_3$ was observed to have been formed in the sinter with its amount increasing roughly with increasing temperature or $Bi_2O_3$ content. The BOC powder was superior in sinterability to other alternative electrolyte materials such as GDC, ScSZ, and LSGM with the minimum sintering temperature for a relative density of $95\%$ or larger as low as $1100^{\circ}C$. The ionic conductivity of BOC increased with $Bi_2O_3$ content and the maximum value of 0.119 S/cm was obtained at $800^{\circ}C$ for $Bi_{0.3}Ce_{0.7}O_{1.85}$.

바이오매스 가스화 시 발생하는 타르의 개질 연구가 다양한 Ni 촉매를 이용하여 수행되었다. 바이오매스 타르의 주요 성분인 톨루엔을 이용하여 실험실 규모의 수증기개질을 수행하였다. 고정층 형태의 개질기를 이용하였고 반응온도 범위는 400-800 ℃로 변화시켰다. Ni 촉매에 증진제로 Ru (0.6 wt%)와 Mn 또는 K (1 wt%)를 적용하였다. Ni/Ru-K/Al₂O₃ 촉매가 Ni/Ru-Mn/Al₂O₃ 촉매보다 전반적으로 높은 톨루엔 개질 전환 성능을 보였으며, X-선 회절분석과 열중량분석을 통해 촉매의 안정성을 확인하였다. 실험실 규모 연구 결과를 바탕으로 모노리스와 펠렛 형태의 촉매를 제작하고 1 톤/일 규모의 바이오매스 가스화 시스템에 적용하였다. 모노리스 촉매의 경우 Ni/Ru-K/Al₂O₃ 촉매가 고온에서 특히 우수한 성능을 보였으며, Ni/Ru-Mn/Al₂O₃ 촉매는 운전 시간 경과에 의한 활성저하가 관찰되었다. 펠렛 촉매의 경우 Ni/Ru-K/Al₂O₃ 는 587 ℃에서 66.7%의 타르 전환율을 보였으며, 사용된 촉매의 재생 후 타르 개질 성능을 비교하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 촉매 중 Ni/Ru-K/Al₂O₃ 펠렛 촉매가 가장 우수한 촉매 활성과 안정성을 보였다.

Fe­석류석인 경우, 사면체 배위를 하는 Fe의 이온반경이 Si보다 크기 때문에 고준위 방사성 폐기물에 다량 함유되어 있는 악티나이드 원소들을 고정화시킬 수 있는 매트릭스로 고려되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 $Ca_{2,5}$C $e_{0.5}$Z $r_2$F $e_3$ $O_{12}$ 및 $Ca_2$CeZrFeF $e_3$ $O_{12}$인 조성을 가진 석류석을 합성하여 이들의 상평형 관계 및 특성을 연구하였다. 혼합된 시료는 200∼400 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$의 압력으로 성형한 후, 1100∼140$0^{\circ}C$ 범위에서 온도 및 분위기를 변화시키면서 소결하였으며 합성된 시료는 XRD, SEM/EDS를 사용하여 상분석과 정량분석을 실시하였다. 실험결과, 이들 조성을 가진 석류석들은 130$0^{\circ}C$로 가열하였을 때, 최적 합성상을 얻을 수 있었지만 소량의 페롭스카이트 등 부수상이 공존하였다. $Ca_{2,5}$C $e_{0.5}$Z $r_2$F $e_3$ $O_{12}$ 및 $Ca_2$CeZrFeF $e_3$ $O_{12}$인 조성으로부터 합성된 Fe­석류석의 조성이 각각 $Ca_{2.5­3.2}$C $e_{0.3­0.7}$Z $r_{1.8­2.8}$F $e_{1.9­3.2}$ $O_{12}$ 및 $Ca_{2.2­2.5}$C $e_{0.8­1.0}$Z $r_{1.3­1.6}$F $e_{0.4­.07}$ F $e_{3­3.2}$ $O_{12}$였다. 특히 화학양론적 조성과 비교시, 합성된 석류석의 8배위 자리를 점하고 있는 Ca이 초과된 양상을 보였고, Ce의 함량은 초과 또는 결핍된 양상을 보였다. 이는 8배위 자리에서의 Ca과 Ce의 이온반경의 상대적인 차이 및 전하보상적 차원에서 비롯된 것으로 해석된다.에서 비롯된 것으로 해석된다.
