Electric double layer capacitors(EDLCS) based on the charge stored at the interface between a hi팀 surface area carbon electrode and an organic electrolyte solution are widely used as a maintenance-free power source for IC memories and microcomputers. The achievement of the excellent performance of the capacitor requires an electrolyte solution which provides high conductivities over a wide temperature range and good electrochemical stabilities to allow the capacitor to be operated at high voltage. The electrochemical capacitor using a carbon material as electrodes and using an organic electrolyte with $1M-LiPF_6$ in PC-GBL-DEC(volume ratio 1:1:2) has specific capacitance of 64F/g.

In the electrokinetic(EK) process, oxygen production by electrolysis was proportional to current density. The dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration in anode tank and bioreactor increased with the circulation rate of electrolyte. The bacterial population in bioreactor rapidly increased by the supplement of current, but the DO concentration deceased by the increased bacterial oxygen consumption. From the results of EK bioremediation for pentadecane-contaminated soil, the bacterial population and removal efficiency at 1.88 $mA/cm^2$ were lower than those at 0.63 $mA/cm^2$. This is because the high oxygen production rate largely increased the production rate of organic acids, which reduced the electrolyte pH and bacterial activity. At 0.63 $mA/cm^2$, the highest bacterial population and removal efficiency could be obtained due to the appropriate oxygen production and small decrease in pH.

In this study, a electrochemical-chemical combined dissolution technology was conducted by electro-generated chlorine to obtain ruthenium solution from ruthenium metal. To find out the optimum leaching conditions of ruthenium in chloride solution, this leaching process was carried out on the variation of pH, reaction time, temperature and applied voltage at the electro-generated chlorine system in the reaction bath. Also, ozone generator was used to obtain ruthenium(III) chloride solution to increase the leaching rate. The optimum condition was observed at pH 10.0, $40^{\circ}C$ within 1 hr of reaction time that more than 88% of ruthenium(III) chloride dissolved.

The catalytic hydrogenation of carbon dioxide has been studied for the fixation of carbon dioxide to mitigate global warming problems, but it needed hydrogen, which the price is still high. Recently, the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide has been drawn attractions because carbon dioxide could be converted to the valuable chemicals such as methane, ethane and alcohols electrochemically in the electrolyte solution using a catalytic electrode. This system is simple because the water electrolysis and hydrogenation take place at the same time using the surplus electricity at midnight. In this work, a continuous electrochemical reduction system was fabricated, which was composed of the reduction electrode (copper or perovskite type, $2{\times}2cm^2$), reference electrode(platinum, $2{\times}6cm^2$), standard electrode(Ag/AgCl), and potassium bicarbonate electrolyte solution saturated with carbon dioxide. The quality and quantity of the products and reduction current were analyzed, according to the electrolyte concentration and electrode type.

Titanium sponge is industrially produced by the Kroll process. In order to understand the importance of the emerging smelting and recycling process, it is necessary to review the conventional production process of titanium. Therefore this paper provides a general overview of the conventional titanium manufacturing system mainly by the Kroll process. The Kroll process can be divided into four sub-processes as follows: (1) Chlorination of raw TiO₂ with coke, by the fluidized bed chlorination or molten salt chlorination (2) Magnesium reduction of TiCl₄ and vacuum distillation of MgCl₂ and Mg by reverse U-type or I-type with reduction-distillation integrated retorts (3) Electrolysis process of MgCl₂ by monopolar cells or multipolar cells to electrolyze into chlorine gas and Mg. (4) Crushing and melting process in which sponge titanium is crushed and then melted in a vacuum arc furnace or an electron beam furnace Although the apparatus and procedures have improved over the past 80 years, the Kroll process is the costly and time-consuming batch operation for the reduction of TiCl₄ and the separation of MgCl₂.

그래핀은 우수한 전기적, 광학적, 기계적인 특성들로 인해 주목을 받아왔지만 그래핀의 상용화에는 많은 문제점들이 있었다. 그 중 비교적 고품질의 대면적 그래핀 필름을 얻기 위한 방법으로 화학증기 증착법이 개발됨에 따라 그래핀 합성은 더 이상 어려운 문제는 아니다. 다만, 소자 제작에 있어서 좋은 전하이동도와 저항을 유지하기 위해 소자 제작과정 중의 도핑의 감소가 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 화학증기 증착법을 통해 만들어진 그래핀 소자 제작과정 중 그래핀 전사과정에서의 도핑을 줄이기 위한 방법으로 전기화학적 박리법(버블링 전사)을 이용하였고 이 때 사용되는 전해질의 종류에 따라 도핑의 영향을 분석하였다.

We investigated the cell activity of controlled titanium surface using various grinding methods including ELID (Electrolytic In-Process Dressing) grinding method. The influence of titanium surface condition by each grinding process on the cell activity was evaluated by ALP activity of MSC(Mesenchymal Stem Cells). The ALP activity of controlled surface by ELID grinding process using # 2000 wheel was higher than that of other titanium surface. The morphological, chemical properties of machined surface by grinding method was observed using various analytical method.

This study relates to a method for manufacturing a solid electrolytic capacitor using a functional polymer composition. The method comprises immersing the rolled aluminum electrolytic capacitor device in polyaniline solution with high electric conductivity to impregnate the device with polyaniline, drying the impregnated device in a drying oven which is maintained at constant temperature to fully remove the solvent, inserting the dried device to a capacitor aluminum can and then sealing with epoxy resin, to manufacture a solid electrolytic capacitor using a conducting polymer. As such, the impregnation can be performed well at not only normal temperature and pressure, but also high temperature and reduced pressure. The solid electrolytic capacitor has the advantages of high capacity, low impedance and low ESR, and also, low manufacturing cost, simple processes and high reliability.

Recently, the weight reduction and miniaturization of the electronics have placed great emphasis. The miniaturization of PCB (Printed Circuit Board) as main component among the electronic components has also become progressed. The use of acid copper plating process for Via-Filling effectively forms interlayer connection in build-up PCBs with high-density interconnections. However, in the case of copper-via filled in a bath, which is greatly dependent on the effects of additives. This paper discusses effects of Cl ion on the filling of PCB vias with electrodeposited copper based on both electrochemical experiment and practical observation of cross sections of vias.

The research is to insure the soundness of the stainless steel overlaid weld metal(21/4Cr-IMo steel + SUS 309L) for a pressure vessel application. Detail studies were conducted for the PWHT influence on the micrstructure and intergranular corrosion characteristics of the overlaid weld metal as well as initiation of hydrogen embrittlement crack(or Disbonding) when welded metal are exposed to the hydrogen atmosphere. Hydrogen was experimentally charged to the overlaid weld metal in order to study PWHT effect on the susceptibility of hydrogen embrittlement crack. The results of this research are as follows: 1. At the bond region, austenite grain of the stainless steel side became coarsed and Cr23C6 type carbide was precipitated at the coarsed austenitic grain boundaries. Intergranular Corrosion width(by Straiss test) increased with increasing PWHT temperature and PWHT time.
