본 발명은 전기화학장치용 산화물 반도체 전극의 제조방법에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 가정용 및 산업용 오염물질을 효율적으로 처리할 수 있으며, 화학적 내구성이 강하고, 제조가 매우 간단하며, 비용을 절감할 수 있는 전기화학장치용 산화물 반도체 전극의 제조방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing an oxide semiconductor electrode for an electrochemical device, and more particularly, it can efficiently handle household and industrial contaminants, has a strong chemical durability, is very simple to manufacture, and can reduce costs. The present invention relates to a method for producing an oxide semiconductor electrode for an electrochemical device.
수중에서 질산성 질소(nitrate), 암모니아성 질소(ammonia/ammonium) 등의 상태로 존재하는 오염 물질 중의 하나인 질소는 수중의 용존 산소의 결핍을 야기하여 부영양화, 적조 현상, 어류 독소 등을 유발시키기 때문에 정부에서는 2003 년부터 총 질소 배출량을 규제하고 있다. 따라서, 상기 규제에 의거하여 수질 오염의 악화 및 확산을 방지하기 위해 수중의 질소 함량을 줄이기 위한 노력이 계속되고 있다.Nitrogen, one of the pollutants that exist in the state of nitrate and ammonia / ammonium in water, causes the lack of dissolved oxygen in the water, causing eutrophication, red tide, fish toxin, etc. The government has regulated total nitrogen emissions since 2003. Accordingly, efforts have been made to reduce the nitrogen content in water in order to prevent deterioration and spread of water pollution in accordance with the above regulations.
최근에는 암모니아성 질소의 이온 교환 및 흡착 성능을 가지는 화합물과, 질소 제거 효율을 향상시키는 광물질 등이 발견됨에 따라 이들을 혼합하여 담체 또는 여과막을 제조하거나, 다양한 구조로 수처리 장치를 제조하여 생물학적 및/또는 화학적 수처리 방법에 적용하는 시도가 계속되고 있으나, 비용 및 시간 면에서 현저한 효과를 얻을 수 있는 방법으로 평가받지는 못한다.Recently, as compounds having ion exchange and adsorption performances of ammonia nitrogen and minerals that enhance nitrogen removal efficiency have been found, they are mixed to prepare carriers or filtration membranes, or water treatment devices having various structures can be used to produce biological and / or Attempts have been made to apply chemical treatment methods, but they are not evaluated in terms of cost and time.
상기와 같은 기존의 방법들보다 효율적으로 수중의 질소를 처리하여 수질의 오염을 방지할 수 있는 기술이 기대되고 있는 가운데, 최근에는 전기화학적 처리 기술을 도입한 수처리 방법이 연구되고 있다. 전기화학적 처리 방법이란 오염된 폐수를 양극과 음극 사이에 두고 전류를 인가하여, 전극의 산화-환원 반응에 의한 전기화학적인 반응을 유도함으로써 수중의 오염 물질을 제거하거나 무해한 성분으로 변화시키는 방법을 말한다. 이러한 전기화학적 처리 방법에 의하면 응집제를 사용하지 않고서도 수중에 포함된 고형물과 담수 조류를 효율적으로 제거할 수 있고, 넓은 설치 면적을 필요로 하지 않으면서 단시간 내에 처리할 수 있어 경제적이며, 슬러지 발생량이 적을 뿐만 아니라, 필요에 따라 소량의 약품만을 사용하기 때문에 발생되는 슬러지를 비료로 재이용할 수 있다는 장점을 가진다. While a technique for preventing pollution of water by treating nitrogen in water more efficiently than the existing methods as described above is expected, recently, a water treatment method adopting an electrochemical treatment technology has been studied. The electrochemical treatment method refers to a method of removing contaminants in water or converting them into harmless components by inducing an electrochemical reaction by the oxidation-reduction reaction of the electrode by applying a current by placing the contaminated wastewater between the anode and the cathode. . According to this electrochemical treatment method, solids and freshwater algae contained in the water can be efficiently removed without using a flocculant and can be treated in a short time without requiring a large installation area. In addition to the small amount, only a small amount of the drug used as needed has the advantage that can be reused sludge produced as a fertilizer.

이하, 본 발명의 이해를 돕기 위하여 바람직한 실시예를 제시하나, 하기 실시예는 본 발명을 예시하는 것일 뿐 본 발명의 범위가 하기 실시예에 한정되는 것은 아니다.Hereinafter, preferred examples are provided to help understanding of the present invention, but the following examples are merely to illustrate the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited to the following examples.
[실시예]EXAMPLE
실시예 1Example 1
유리에 인듐 주석 화합물을 150 ㎚ 두께로 코팅하여 전도성 기판을 준비하였다.A conductive substrate was prepared by coating the glass with an indium tin compound at a thickness of 150 nm.
상기 전도성 기판에 티타늄 아이소프로포사이드 10 g, 폴리비닐아세테이트 1 g, 아세트산 5 g, 및 디메틸 포름아미드 20 mL, 및 TiO2 1 g의 혼합물을 스핀코팅법으로 코팅하여 150∼1,000 ㎚ 두께의 박막을 형성하였다. 이때, 상기 스핀코팅 속도는 500∼5,000 rpm으로 속도를 달리하여 실시하였다.The conductive substrate was coated with a mixture of 10 g of titanium isopropoxide, 1 g of polyvinylacetate, 5 g of acetic acid, 20 mL of dimethyl formamide, and 1 g of TiO 2 by spin coating to form a thin film having a thickness of 150 to 1,000 nm. Formed. At this time, the spin coating speed was performed by varying the speed at 500 ~ 5,000 rpm.
그 다음, 상기 형성된 박막을 20∼800 ℃에서 10 분간 열처리하여 박막에 존재하는 고분자와 용매를 제거하여 산화티타늄 산화물 반도체 전극을 제조하였다.Then, the formed thin film was heat-treated at 20 to 800 ° C. for 10 minutes to remove the polymer and the solvent present in the thin film, thereby preparing a titanium oxide semiconductor electrode.
도 1은 최적의 열처리 온도를 얻기 위한 폴리비닐아세테이트의 TGA(thermal gravimetric analysis) 열분석 결과를 나타낸 것으로, 폴리비닐아세테이트는 550 ℃ 이상의 온도에서 완전히 분해 및 제거됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서, 고분자 화합물로 폴리비닐아세테이트를 사용할 경우 열처리는 550 ℃에서 10 분간 실시하는 것이 최적임을 확인할 수 있었다.Figure 1 shows the results of the thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) thermal analysis of polyvinyl acetate to obtain the optimum heat treatment temperature, polyvinylacetate was confirmed that completely decomposed and removed at a temperature of 550 ℃ or more. Therefore, when polyvinyl acetate is used as the polymer compound, it was confirmed that the heat treatment was optimally performed at 550 ° C. for 10 minutes.
또한, 도 2는 열처리된 산화물 반도체 전극의 X-선 회절을 나타낸 것으로 오 염물질 분해 활성이 크다고 알려진 아나타제(anatase) 상으로 산화티타늄이 결정화된 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이때, 인듐 주석 화합물의 경우 산화물 반도체 코팅 전에 이미 결정화된 상태이며, 열처리 온도에 따른 인듐 주석 화합물의 결정구조 변화는 없음을 알 수 있었다.In addition, FIG. 2 shows X-ray diffraction of the heat-treated oxide semiconductor electrode, and it was confirmed that titanium oxide was crystallized on an anatase known to have high contaminant decomposition activity. In this case, the indium tin compound is already crystallized before the oxide semiconductor coating, it can be seen that there is no change in the crystal structure of the indium tin compound according to the heat treatment temperature.
상기 실시예 1의 산화물 반도체 전극 제조시 스핀코팅 속도에 따른 염료에 대한 광활성(흡착 및 분해율)을 측정하기 위하여, 스핀코팅 속도를 각각 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 및 5000 rpm으로 달리하였으며, 염료로 Basic Blue 26(이하, 'BB26'이라 함)을 이용하여 광활성을 측정하고, 그 결과를 하기 표 1에 나타내었다.In order to measure the photoactivity (adsorption and decomposition rate) of the dye according to the spin coating speed in the oxide semiconductor electrode of Example 1, the spin coating speed was varied at 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, and 5000 rpm, respectively. , Dye was measured using Basic Blue 26 (hereinafter referred to as 'BB26') and the results are shown in Table 1 below.
또한, 상기 실시예 1의 산화물 반도체 전극 제조시 스핀코팅 속도에 따른 표면 TiO2 산화물 반도체의 광분해율을 측정하고, 그 결과를 도 3a 및 3b에 나타내었다. 이때, 본 발명은 UV를 사용하지 않고 전기장 인가 방식으로 오염물질을 분해하는 것이나, 상기 광분해율 측정시 실험의 용이성 측면에서 UV를 사용하였다.In addition, the photodegradation rate of the surface TiO 2 oxide semiconductor according to the spin coating speed when the oxide semiconductor electrode of Example 1 was manufactured was measured, and the results are shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B. In this case, the present invention is to decompose contaminants by applying an electric field without using UV, but UV was used in view of the ease of experiment when measuring the photodegradation rate.
도 3a에 나타낸 바와 같이 UV 조사시간에 따른 BB26 염료의 광분해율 측정 결과, 3,000 rpm의 속도에서 가장 큰 광분해율을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 도 3b에 나타낸 바와 같이 1 시간 UV 조사 조건에서 각 스핀코팅 속도에 따른 염료의 광분해율 측정 결과, 3,000 rpm의 속도에서 가장 큰 분해율(44.2%)를 나타내었으며, 이로부터 스핀코팅의 최적 속도는 3,000 rpm임을 확인할 수 있었다.As shown in FIG. 3A, the photodegradation rate of the BB26 dye according to UV irradiation time was found to show the largest photodegradation rate at a speed of 3,000 rpm. In addition, as shown in FIG. 3B, the photodegradation rate of the dye according to each spin coating speed under 1 hour UV irradiation condition showed the largest decomposition rate (44.2%) at a speed of 3,000 rpm, from which the optimum speed of spin coating was obtained. Was found to be 3,000 rpm.
도 4에는 상기 실시예 1의 산화물 반도체 전극 제조에서 스핀코팅 속도를 달리하여 제조한 최종 산화물 반도체 표면의 전자현미경(SEM) 사진을 나타내었다. 오염물질의 분해율은 일반적으로 산화물 반도체 전극의 표면적의 증가에 비례하는 것으로 알려져 있다.Figure 4 shows an electron micrograph (SEM) of the surface of the final oxide semiconductor prepared by varying the spin coating speed in the oxide semiconductor electrode manufacturing of Example 1. The rate of decomposition of contaminants is generally known to be proportional to the increase in the surface area of the oxide semiconductor electrode.
실험결과, 스핀코팅 속도가 증가함에 따라 산화물 반도체 전극 표면의 형상, 표면적, 및 두께가 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 3,000 rpm의 속도에서 가장 최적화된 표면을 가짐을 확인할 수 있었다. As a result, as the spin coating speed was increased, it was confirmed that the shape, surface area, and thickness of the oxide semiconductor electrode surface were decreased, and that the surface had the most optimized surface at a speed of 3,000 rpm.
도 5a 및 5b에는 상기 실시예 1에서 스핀코팅 속도를 3,000 rpm으로 하여 제조하여 TiO2/ITO/유리의 구조를 가지는 산화물 반도체 전극을 이용하여 열처리 전/후의 전자현미경(SEM) 사진을 나타내었다.5A and 5B show electron microscopy (SEM) images before and after heat treatment using an oxide semiconductor electrode having a structure of TiO 2 / ITO / glass prepared at a spin coating speed of 3,000 rpm in Example 1.
실험결과, 도 5a에 나타낸 바와 같이 열처리 전에는 대부분이 최대 32 ㎚ 크기의 비결정의 TiO2(P-25)가 관찰되었으며, 열처리 후에는 도 5b에 나타낸 바와 같이 TiO2(P-25) 이외에 최대 17 ㎚ 크기의 결정화된 TiO2도 함께 관찰되었다. 이는 열처리로 인하여 티타늄 아이소프로포사이드로부터 고분자 성분이 제거되고 Ti만 남게 되어 최대 17 ㎚ 크기의 결정화된 TiO2가 관찰된 것임을 알 수 있었다.As a result, as shown in FIG. 5A, most of amorphous TiO 2 (P-25) having a maximum size of 32 nm was observed before heat treatment, and after heat treatment, as shown in FIG. 5B, a maximum of 17 except TiO 2 (P-25) Crystallized TiO 2 of nm size was also observed. It can be seen that due to the heat treatment, the polymer component was removed from the titanium isopropoxide, leaving only Ti, and crystallized TiO 2 having a maximum size of 17 nm was observed.
상기 실시예 1에서 스핀코팅 속도를 3,000 rpm으로 하고, 열처리를 550 ℃에서 10 분간 실시하여 제조한 산화물 반도체 전극을 이용하여 인가전압을 각각 (+)5V 및 (+)10V로 달리하여 BB26 염료의 분해특성을 측정하고, 그 결과를 도 6a 및 6b에 나타내었다. 이때, 전압은 TiO2/ITO/유리 전극에 인가하였으며, 비교예로 ITO/유리 전극에도 인가하여 실험을 진행하였다. 상대 전극으로는 백금(Pt)를 사용하였고, 실험은 UV가 완전히 차단된 암실에서 진행하였다.In Example 1, the spin coating speed was set at 3,000 rpm, and the applied voltage was changed to (+) 5V and (+) 10V, respectively, using an oxide semiconductor electrode prepared by performing heat treatment at 550 ° C. for 10 minutes to obtain BB26 dye. Decomposition characteristics were measured and the results are shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B. At this time, the voltage was applied to the TiO 2 / ITO / glass electrode, the experiment was also applied to the ITO / glass electrode as a comparative example. Platinum (Pt) was used as the counter electrode, and the experiment was conducted in a dark room where UV was completely blocked.
도 6a는 인가전압이 (+)5V일 때 시간에 따른 BB26 염료의 분해를 나타낸 것이다. 도 6a와 같이 전압을 인가하지 않은 Bias=None 조건에서는 전극의 종류에 관계없이 염료의 분해가 거의 이루어지지 않았으며, (+)5V 전압을 인가할 경우에는 TiO2/ITO/유리 전극 및 ITO/유리 전극 모두에서 분해 현상이 관찰되었다. 그러나, 분해율은 크지 않았으며, 1 시간 전압 인가 조건에서 ITO/유리 전극을 사용한 경우 7.5 %가, TiO2/ITO/유리 전극을 사용한 경우 3.0 %가 분해됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 이같이 ITO/유리 전극이 TiO2/ITO/유리 전극과 비교하여 더 큰 분해율을 보이는 것은 (+)5V 정도의 전압은 전자가 TiO2의 전자 전도대 영역으로 터널링(tunneling)하기에 충분하지 않은 전압이기 때문인 것으로 판단되었다(도 7b 참조).Figure 6a shows the decomposition of BB26 dye over time when the applied voltage is (+) 5V. As shown in FIG. 6A, dyes were hardly decomposed regardless of the electrode type under Bias = None under no voltage, and when TiO 2 / ITO / glass electrode and ITO / were applied when a positive 5V voltage was applied. Decomposition was observed at both glass electrodes. However, the decomposition rate was not large, and it was confirmed that 7.5% of the ITO / glass electrode was used and 3.0% of the TiO 2 / ITO / glass electrode was decomposed under a 1 hour voltage application condition. As such, the ITO / glass electrode exhibits a higher decomposition rate compared to the TiO 2 / ITO / glass electrode because a voltage of about 5V is not enough for the electrons to tunnel into the electron conduction band region of TiO 2 . It was judged to be due to (see Fig. 7b).
또한, 도 6b는 인가전압이 (+)10V일 때 시간에 따른 BB26 염료의 분해를 나타낸 것으로, 전압을 인가하지 않은 Bias=None 조건에서는 전극의 종류에 관계없이 염료의 분해가 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 그러나, 전압을 (+)10V로 인가하였을 경우에는 TiO2/ITO/유리 전극 및 ITO/유리 전극 모두에서 분해 현상이 관찰되었으며, 1 시간 전압 인가 조건에서 ITO/유리 전극을 사용한 경우에는 14.1 %로, TiO2/ITO/유리 전극을 사용한 경우에는 53.3 %로 분해됨을 확인할 수 있었다. In addition, Figure 6b shows the decomposition of BB26 dye with time when the applied voltage is (+) 10V, almost no decomposition of the dye regardless of the type of electrode under the condition Bias = None without voltage applied. However, decomposition was observed at both TiO 2 / ITO / glass electrodes and ITO / glass electrodes when the voltage was applied at (+) 10V, and 14.1% when ITO / glass electrodes were used at 1 hour voltage application conditions. When TiO 2 / ITO / glass electrode was used, it was confirmed that the decomposition was 53.3%.
이상과 같은 결과를 하기 표 2에 정리하였다.The above results are summarized in Table 2 below.
상기 표 2에 나타낸 바와 같이, ITO/유리 전극의 경우에는 (+)5V일 때 7.5 %, (+)10V일 때 14.1 %로 전압에 비례하여 분해율이 증가하였으며, 이는 ITO 전극이 n-타입(type)의 전극으로 일반적인 전기분해에 의해 염료가 분해되기 때문이었다. 그러나, TiO2/ITO/유리 전극의 경우에는 (+)5V일 때 3.0 %, (+)10V일 때 53.5 %로 전자가 TiO2의 전자 전도대 영역으로 터널링하기에 충분한 전압 이상에서는 기하급수적으로 분해율이 증가하였으며(도 7b 참조), 이는 산화물 반도체를 이용할 경우 물 분자(H2O)의 전자가 산화물 반도체의 전자 전도대로 터널링하여 이동하고, 수산화 라디칼(OH radical)로 변화되어 산화효율이 매우 커졌기 때문이었다.As shown in Table 2, in the case of the ITO / glass electrode, the decomposition rate was increased to 7.5% at (+) 5V, 14.1% at (+) 10V, which is proportional to the voltage. This is because the dye is decomposed by an electrode of the type). However, for TiO 2 / ITO / glass electrodes 3.0% at (+) 5V and 53.5% at (+) 10V, the rate of decomposition is exponentially above the voltage sufficient for the electrons to tunnel into the electron conduction band region of TiO 2 . This increased (see FIG. 7B), which means that when the oxide semiconductor is used, electrons of water molecules (H 2 O) tunnel and move to the electron conduction band of the oxide semiconductor, and are converted into OH radicals, thereby increasing oxidation efficiency. It was because.
따라서, 본 발명에 따라 제조한 산화물 반도체 전극을 이용할 경우 임계 전압 이상에서 UV 램프의 사용 없이 오염물질을 효율적으로 처리할 수 있음을 예측할 수 있었다.Therefore, when using the oxide semiconductor electrode prepared according to the present invention it can be expected that the contaminant can be efficiently processed without the use of a UV lamp above the threshold voltage.
도 7은 DC 전압 인가 전/후의 밴드-디아그램 도식도(schematic band-diagram)를 나타낸 것으로, DC 인가 전에는 용액과 산화물 반도체 전극 사이에 쇼트키 베리어(shottky barrier)가 점점 낮아지며, 임계 전압 이후에서는 쇼트키 베리어를 통해 전자가 이동하여 물 분자가 수산화 라디칼로 변화되어 오염물질을 처리하게 됨을 확인할 수 있었다.FIG. 7 shows a schematic band-diagram before / after DC voltage application, in which a Schottky barrier between the solution and the oxide semiconductor electrode is gradually lowered before DC application, and after the threshold voltage. The electrons move through the Schottky barrier, which turns the water molecules into hydroxyl radicals to treat the pollutants.
본 발명에 따르면 가정용 및 산업용 오염물질을 효율적으로 처리할 수 있으며, 화학적 내구성이 강하고, 제조가 매우 간단하며, 비용을 절감할 수 있는 효과가 있다.According to the present invention, it is possible to efficiently treat household and industrial contaminants, has a strong chemical durability, very simple manufacturing, and can reduce costs.
