Dissolution of Antheraea pernyi silk fiber was carried out in a zinc nitrate 6 hydrate (Zn(NO$_3$)$_2$ㆍ6$H_2O$) solution with various dissolving conditions. The solubility was significantly dependent on the concentration of zinc nitrate, dissolving temperature and time. Regenerated A. pernyi silk fibroin powder was obtained through dialysis process to remove chaotropic salt. FTIR and X-ray diffractometer showed that the conformation of regenerated A. pernyi silk powder was sheet structure.

ZnO 나노구조체를 성장하는 여러 가지 방법 중에서 전기 화학 증착법은 컨트롤이 용이하며 저렴한 가격으로 낮은 온도에서 성장이 가능할 뿐만 아니라 대면적으로 성장할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 나노구조체의 직경과 길이는 indium-tin-oxide와 Ag/AgCl 전극 사이의 전류 밀도 증가에 따라 변화하는 것을 알 수 있었다. Zinc nitrate 몰 농도를 조절하여 다양한 형태의 ZnO 나노구조체를 만들 수 있었다. 70$^{\circ}C$에서 4시간 동안 성장한 ZnO 나노구조체를 대기에서 400$^{\circ}C$로 2분 동안 열처리를 하였다. 성장된 ZnO 나노구조체에 대한 X-선 회절 측정 결과로부터 (0002) 피크가 34.35$^{\circ}$에서 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 주사전자현미경 측정 결과로부터 zinc nitrate의 몰 농도가 낮을 때 성장한 ZnO 나노구조체는 와이어 형태로 형성되었음을 확인하였다. 그러나 zinc nitrate의 몰 농도가 높아지게 되면 ZnO 나노구조체의 모양이 와이어에서 막대 또는 접시 형태로 변화 되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 300K에서의 광루미네센스 스펙트럼 결과로부터 zinc nitrate의 농도에 따라 다르게 형성된 ZnO 나노구조체는 엑시톤과 관련된 피크가 zinc nitrate의 몰 농도 변화에 따라 달라지는 것을 확인 하였다.

ZnO의 나노 구조는 화학적으로 안정하고 큰 결합에너지를 가지는 성질 때문에 청색 영역에서 작동하는 광전소자의 제작에 대단히 유용하다. ZnO 나노 구조들은 화학 기상 성장법, 기상 에피텍시 성장법, 화학적 용액 성장법과 같은 여러 가지 방법으로 성장하고 있다. 여러 가지 성장방법 중에서도 전기 화학 증착법으로 성장된 ZnO의 나노 구조는 가격이 저렴하고 낮은 온도에서 성장이 가능하며 대면적화를 할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 전기 화학 증착법으로 ZnO을 성장할 때 3개의 전극을 사용하여 성장하였다. ITO 기판을 음극으로 백금 전극을 양극으로 사용하였고 기준 전극은 Ag/AgCl을 사용하였다. Zinc Nitrate의 몰 농도를 변화하면서 ZnO 나노구조를 성장 하였다. 성장한 ZnO 나노구조를 $400^{\circ}C$에서 2 분정도 열처리를 하였다. 성장된 ZnO을 X-선회절장치를 분석하게 되면 (0002) 피크가 $34.35^{\circ}$에서 주되게 나타났다. 주사 전자 현미경상은 Zinc Nitrate의 몰 농도가 낮을 때 성장한 ZnO 는 나노세선 형태로 형성되었음을 보여주었다. Zinc Nitrate의 농도가 높아지게 되면 ZnO 나노구조가 나노 막대 또는 나노 접시 모양으로 변화되었다. 300 K에서 광루미네선스 스펙트럼은 형성된 나노구조가 엑시톤과 관련된 주된 피크가 Zinc Nitrate 농도에 따라 변화하게 되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이 실험결과는 ZnO 나노구조의 미세구조와 광학적 성질이 Zinc Nitrate의 농도에 영향을 많이 받는 것을 알 수 있었다.

We have developed a novel and eco-friendly synthetic route for the preparation of a two-dimensional layered zinc hydroxide with intercalated nitrate anions. The layered zinc hydroxide nitrate, called 'zinc basic salt', was, in general, successfully synthesized, using an electron beam irradiation technique. The 2-propanol solutions containing hydrated zinc nitrate were directly irradiated with an electron-beam at room temperature, under atmospheric conditions, without stabilizers or base molecules. Under electron beam irradiation, the reactive OH radicals were generated by radiolysis of water molecules in precursor metal salts. After further radiolytic processes, the hydroxyl anions might be formed by the reaction of solvated electrons and the OH radical. Finally, the $Zn_5(OH)_8(NO_3)_2{\cdot}2H_2O$ was precipitated by the reaction of zinc cation and hydroxyl anions. Structure and morphology of obtained compounds were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). The chemical components of the products were determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and elemental analysis (EA). The thermal behavior of products was studied by thermogravimetric (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA).

An activated catalyst prepared from a mixture of nickel nitrate hexahydrate with zinc in dry ethanol under reflux showed exceptional catalytic activity for the reduction of nitroarenes to the corresponding azoxy compounds exclusively in the presence of hydrazine monohydrate. However, when nickel nitrate hexahydrate was replaced by nickel chloride dihydrate with zinc, only the aminoarenes were formed in high yields. With unactivated catalyst, the reduction reaction from a mixture of nitroarenes, nickel nitrate or chloride, excess zinc and hydrazine monohydrate gave the corresponding azo, azoxy and amino compounds in much lower yields.

In this paper, ZnO Thin Film Transistors (TFTs) were fabricated by a sol-gel method using a low-temperature process, and their physical and electrical characteristics were analyzed. To lower the process temperature to $200^{\circ}C$, we used a zinc nitrate hydrate ($Zn(NO_3)_2{\cdot}xH_2O$) precursor. Thermo Gravimetric Analyzer (TGA) analysis showed that the zinc nitrate hydrate precursor solution had 1.5% residual organics, much less than the 6.5% of zinc acetate dihydrate at $200^{\circ}C$. In the sol-gel method, organic materials in the precursor disrupt formation of a high-quality film, and high-temperature annealing is needed to remove the organic residuals, which implies that, by using zinc nitrate hydrate, ZnO devices can be fabricated at a much lower temperature. Using an X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD) and an X-ray Photoelectron Spectrometer (XPS), $200^{\circ}C$ annealed ZnO film with zinc nitrate hydrate (ZnO (N)) was found to have an amorphous phase and much more oxygen vacancy ($V_o$) than Zn-O bonds. Despite no crystallinity, the ZnO (N) had conductance comparable to that of ZnO with zinc acetate dihydrate (ZnO (A)) annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ as in TFTs. These results show that sol-gel could be made a potent process for low-cost and flexible device applications by optimizing the precursors.

An anti-reflection layer (AR) is used in the solar cell to improve the amount of the irradiated light, resulting in the improvement of the performance of the solar cell. In this study, the zinc oxide (ZnO) AR is applied to the dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) by using zinc nitrate solution. The conditions such as solution concentration and sintering temperature for fabricating the ZnO AR are changed to optimize the performance of the AR. As a result, the best performance is shown when the zinc nitrate solution with 100mM concentration is used and the sintering temperature is $600^{\circ}C$. And then, the ZnO AR formed with these optimal conditions is applied to the DSC. Consequently, a DSC with a ZnO AR had an increased current density up to 13.86$mA/cm^2$ and an enhanced efficiency of 6.32%.

In this study, ZnO nanorods were grown by a hydrothermal method. $SiO_2/Si$ wafers and glass were used as substrates. ~20 nm-thick ZnO thin films were rf magnetron sputtered for seed layers. The precursor was prepared by mixing zinc nitrate hexahydrate and hexamethylenetetramine (hexamine) in DI water. The concentration of zinc nitrate hexahydrate was fixed at 0.05 mol, and that of hexamine was varied between 0 mol to 0.1 mol. The reactor containing substrates and precursor was put in an oven maintained at $90^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. X-ray diffraction was carried out to analyze the crystallinity of ZnO nanorods, and a field emission scanning electron microscope was employed to observe the morphology of nanorods. Transmittance and absorbance were measured by a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Photoluminescence measurements were conducted using 266 nm light.

Since nitrate nitrogen is quite stable in aqueous solution, considerable skill is required to remove it. Low concentrations of nitrate nitrogen are easily removed, while high concentrations of nitrate nitrogen are difficult to remove. This study is to show that nitrate nitrogen in the form of gaseous nitrogen can be removed by using zinc ball with a diameter of about 3mm and to test the removal characteristics of nitrate nitrogen under various reaction conditions. As a result of this study, the treatment efficiency of nitrate nitrogen by continuous treatment with zinc ball was about 80%. However, there is a problem that the wastewater must be maintained in an acidic atmosphere of about pH 2, and the treated wastewater must be neutralized and discharged.
