Abstract:
Provided is a method of manufacturing porous metal oxide, the method including: preparing a metal-organic framework (MOF) wherein an ion of a metal to be used as a catalyst is linked to an organic ligand; impregnating the MOF with a precursor solution of metal oxide to be manufactured; and thermally treating the metal oxide precursor solution-impregnated MOF to remove the organic ligand. The inventive method of manufacturing porous metal oxide involves the impregnation of a metal oxide precursor solution in a MOF wherein metal ions are uniformly linked to organic ligands and the thermal treatment (calcination) of the metal oxide precursor solution-impregnated MOF to remove the organic ligands.

Metal nanoparticle-polymer composites, a method of manufacturing the same, and a polymer actuator using the same are provided. The method includes synthesizing an organometallic compound as a precursor of metal nanoparticles, preparing a solution mixture containing the organometallic compound and a polymer, and drying and annealing the solution mixture to generate the metal nanoparticle-polymer composite including metal nanoparticles. Thus, highly efficient metal nanoparticle-polymer composite materials may be manufactured with a uniform distribution without synthesizing nanoparticles.

Abstract:
A multi-download structure and a method of downloading information to one or more mobile communications terminals is provided. The structure includes an input unit for inputting download terms. A user download executing unit displays the inputted download terms and model information of mounted terminals on a screen and integrally controls/manages a multi-downloading operation. A plurality of lower download executing units, in which terminal model information has been registered, individually execute download operations to each mounted terminal. A medium unit receives the download terms and the terminal model information from the user download executing unit, automatically selects a model of the terminal to be downloaded, automatically calls the plurality of lower download executing units corresponding to the selected terminal models, and executes the multi-downloading operation.
Abstract:
Provided are a surface-coated polymer actuator and a method of preparing the same. The polymer actuator includes an ionic conductive polymer membrane, metal electrodes formed on both surfaces of the ionic conductive polymer membrane, and coating layers formed on both the surfaces of the metal electrodes.By coating the surfaces of the metal electrodes of the polymer actuator, the leakage of solvent from the electrode surfaces due to an inner pressure, which is caused by the solvent's flow due to an electrical stimulus when the actuator is operated, can be prevented and thus the displacement and drivability of the polymer actuator can be improved.
