It was investigated in this study that a preparation method, activation energy, surface area, pore volume, pore size distribution and DTA analysis of the dry gel in process of producing monolithic porous gel in Li2O-Al2O3-TiO2-SiO2 system by the sol-gel technique using metal alkoxides. Activation energy for gellation according to the variation of water concentration and the kind of catalysts ranged from 10 to 20kcal/mole. Monolithic dry gels were prepared after drying at 9$0^{\circ}C$ when the amount of water for gellation was 4~8 times more than the stoichiometric amount, that was necessary for the full hydrolysis of the mixed metal alkoxide. The specific surface area, the pore volume, the average pore radius of the dried gel at 18$0^{\circ}C$ according to the various kinds of catalyst were about 348~734$m^2$/g, 0.35~0.70ml/g and 10~35$\AA$, respectively. It showed that the dry gels were porous body. As a result ofthe analysis of DTA, it was confirmed that the exothermaic peaks at 715$^{\circ}C$ and 77$0^{\circ}C$ was clue to the crystallization of dried gel.

In this study, a fiber-optic pH sensor based on a pH sol-gel film is fabricated. The sol-gel film is made by co-polymerizing tetramethoxysilane, trimethoxymethylsilane, ethanol and distilled water. As a pH indicator, a neutral red is immobilized in a thin porous film formed by the sol-gel process. The pH change in a sensing probe gives rise to a change in the color of the pH sol-gel film, and the absorbance of reflected light through the pH sol-gel film is also changed. By using a spectrometer, therefore, the spectra of reflected lights in the sensing probe with different pH values are measured. Also, the relationships between the pH values and the absorbance are analyzed on the basis of the color variations of the pH sol-gel films. In repeated experiments, the fiber-optic pH sensor shows that it has reversibility, a high reproducibility and a wide absorbance change in a pH range from pH 5 to 9. Also, we confirmed that the fabricated pH sol-gel film exhibits a fast response time, little or no pH indicator leaching and a dynamic range of 2.04 dB from pH 5 to 9. Based on the results of this study, a fiber-optic pH sensor can be developed for the pH monitoring in the harsh environments.

A reflection-type fiber-optic pH sensor, which is composed of a pH sol-gel film, plastic optical fibers, a mirror, a light source and a spectrometer, is developed in this study. As pH indicators, a bromthymol blue, a cresol red and a thymol blue are used, and they are immobilized in the sol-gel films. The emitted light from a light source is guided by a fiber-optic Y-coupler and plastic optical fibers to the pH sol-gel film in a pH sensing probe. The pH change in the sensing probe gives rise to a change in the color of the pH sol-gel film, and the optical characteristic of reflected light through the pH sol-gel film is also changed. Therefore, we have measured the spectra of reflected lights, which are changed according to the color variations of the pH sol-gel films with different pH values, by using of a spectrometer. Also, the relationships between the pH values and the intensities of reflected lights are obtained on the basis of the color variations of the pH sol-gel films.

Sol-gel processing was used to prepare PZT fibers. Titanium isopropoxide Zirconium n-butoxide and lead acetate trihydrate were used as starting materials and TEA(triethanolamine) was added to form stabilized Pb-Ti-Zr complex alkoxide, Effects of catalysts and various solvents on the state of precursor sol gelation reaction fiber spinnability pyrolysis and crystallization were also investiated.

Organic-inorganic hybrid sol-gel matrices were used as hosts for chloro (5, 10, 15, 20-tetraphenylporphyrinato) cobalt (III) (Co[TPP]Cl), a known ionophore for nitrite. The sol-gel precursor was prepared by the reaction of (3-isocyanopropyl) triethoxysilane with 1,4-butanediol. An appropriate amount of the anion-exchanger, tridodecylmethylammonium chloride (TDMAC) and the plasticizer, tributylphosphate (DBP) were used as membrane additives. On mixing with an acidic catalyst, the sol-state precursors slowly gelled, yielding a membrane in which the active components, Co[TPP]Cl and TDMAC, were encapsulated. The performances of the sol-gel membrane-based electrodes were compared to those of Co[TPP]Cl-based poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) membrane electrodes. Membranes with a molar ratio of Co[TPP]Cl: TDMAC (1 : 0.1) showed reasonable response slopes toward nitrite. The response slopes were typically 53 mV/decade between $10^{-5.4}$ and $10^{-1.0}\;M$. Selectivities toward nitrite over hydrophilic and small anions such as chloride were somewhat inferior to those observed with PVC-based membranes, but selectivities over lipophilic anions were quite similar. Reduced asymmetry potentials due to protein adsorption were found to occur with the sol-gel matrix relative to PVC-based films when the sensors were employed as a detector in flow-through configuration.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트 부재에 저온 적용을 위해 SOL-GEL 기법을 이용하여 제조된 열에너지 저장 복합상변화물질(CPCM)를 개발하였다. 코어는 테트라데칸, 지지재는 활성탄(AC)을 각각 사용하였다. 진공 함침법을 이용하여 AC의 다공성 구조에 테트라데칸 상변화 물질(PCM)을 함침시키고, 테트라에틸오르토실리케이트(TEOS)를 사용한 SOL-GEL 공정을 이용하여 제조된 복합체에 실리카 겔을 얇게 코팅하였다. CPCM의 열 성능은 시차주사열량계(DSC)과 열 중량분석(TGA)을 통해 분석했다. DSC 결과 테트라데칸 PCM은 용융 및 동결 온도가 각각 6.4℃ 및 1.3℃이고 해당 엔탈피는 각각 226J/g 및 223.8J/g인 것으로 나타났다. CPCM은 7.1℃ 및 2.4℃에서 용융 및 동결 과정에서 각각 32.98J/g 및 27.7J/g의 엔탈피를 나타내었다. TGA 시험 결과 AC는 500℃까지 열적으로 안정하며, 이는 120℃ 정도인 순수 테트라데칸의 분해 온도보다 훨씬 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한, AC-PCM과 CPCM의 경우 각각 80℃와 100℃에서 열분해가 시작되었다. CPCM의 화학적 정성 분석을 위해 푸리에 변환 적외선(FT-IR) 분광법을 이용하였으며, 그 결과 개발된 복합체가 화학적으로 안정함을 확인하였다. 마지막으로, SOL-GEL 공정 후 AC 표면에 실리카 겔의 얇은 층이 존재함을 확인하기 위해 주사전자현미경(SEM)을 이용하여 AC와 CPCM의 표면 형태를 분석하였다.

실란커플링제인 glycidoxypropyl trimethoxysilane(GPTMS)과 vinyltriethoxysilane(VTES)을 출발물질로 하여 sol-gel 법에 의해 유-무기 혼성 용액을 제조하였다. 이 용액에 spiropyran계 광 변색 염료를 ethylacetate에 용해시킨 용액을 혼합하여 광 변색 코팅 용액을 제조하였다. 그 후 기재인 polycarbonate 시트에 스핀 코팅 시키고 $100^{\circ}C$에서 2 h 동안 열 경화시켜 광 변색성을 갖는 하드 코팅 막을 제조하였다. 코팅 막은 UV 광을 조사함에 의해 투명색으로부터 푸른색으로 변했다가 다시 투명색으로 변하는 가역적인 색변화를 보여주었다. 이때 코팅 막의 소색속도 및 연필경도는 코팅 용액 중의 GPTMS의 mol비가 증가됨에 따라 증가하였다.
