This study investigates the problem of phase change from liquid to solid in the inviscid stagnation flow. The solution of dimensionless governing equations is determined by the three dimensionless parameters of (temperature ratio/conductivity ratio), Stefan number, and diffusi-vity ratio. The solution at the initial stage of freezing is obtained by expanding it in powers of time, and the final equilibrium state is determined from the steady-state governing equations. The equilibrium state is dependent on (temperature ratio/conductivity ratio), but is independent of Stefan number and diffusivity ratio. The effect of fluid flow on the pure conduction problem can be clearly seen from the solution of the initial stage and the final equilibrium state, and the characteristics of the solidification process for all the dimensionless parameters are elucidated.

최근 리튬이차전지의 안전성을 향상시킨 전고체 전지가 많은 관심의 대상이 되고 있으나 전도성 세라믹 또는 고체 고분자 전해질을 적용한 고체전지는 높은 계면 저항, 부반응 등과 같은 문제점을 지니고 있어 전기화학적 특성이 낮다. 기존 전고체 전지의 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 복합고체 전해질이 제안되었으며 본 연구에서는 나시콘 구조의 나노 입자 Li_1.5Al_0.5Ti_1.5P₃O₁₂ (LATP) 전도성 세라믹, PVdF-HFP, 카보네이티 기반 액체전해질을 복합화 하여 유사고체 전해질을 제작하였다. 이 복합고체 전해질은 5.6 V의 높은 전압 안전성을 가지며 리튬이온의 탈리-착리 테스트에서 리튬 금속전극의 덴드라이트 성장 억제 효과가 있음을 보여준다. 또한 복합고체 전해질을 적용한 LiNi_0.83Co_0.11Mn_0.06O₂ (NCM811)기반 전지에서 4.8 V의 높은 충전 종지 전압에도 241.5 mAh/g의 높은 방전 용량을 나타내며 안정적인 전기화학 반응이 일어난다. NCM811 기반 전지의 90도 충전-방전 중에도 전지의 단락이나 폭발 없이 139.4 mAh/g 방전 용량을 보인다. 따라서 LATP기반 복합고체 전해질은 리튬이차전지의 안전성과 전기화학적 특성을 향상 시킬 수 있는 효과적인 방법임을 알 수 있다.

All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), vitamin A acid, has been shown to exert anticancer activity in a number of types of cancers, particularly in acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL). Due to its highly variable bioavailability and induction of its own metabolism after oral treatment, development of parenteral dosage forms are required. However, its poor aqueous solubility and chemical unstability give major drawbacks in parenteral administration. This study was undertaken to investigate a possibility to develop a parenteral formulation of ATRA by employing solid lipid nanoparticle (SLN) as a carrier. By optimizing the production parameters and the composition of SLNs, SLNs with desired mean particle size (<100 nm) as a parenteral dosage form could be produced from trimyristin (as solid lipid), Egg phosphatidylcholine and Tween 80 (as SLN stabilizer). The mean particle size of SLN formulation of ATRA was not changed during storage, suggesting its physical stability. Thermal analysis confirmed that the inner lipid core of SLNs exist at solid state. The mean particle size of ATRA-loaded SLNs was not significantly changed by the lyophilization process. ATRA could be efficiently loaded in SLNs, while maintaining its anticancer activity against HL-60, a well-known APL cell line. Furthermore, by lyophilization, ATRA loaded in SLN could be retained chemically stable during storage. Taken together, our present study demonstrates that physically and chemically stable ATRA formulation adequate for parenteral administration could be obtained by employing SLN technology.

For the first time, an innovative approach using P(VDF-TrFE) as a polymer electrolyte for high efficiency, all-solid-state supercapacitors is presented. The polymer electrolyte was successfully achieved by dissolving P(VDF-TrFE) copolymers in dimethylformamide (DMF). Thermal analysis and infrared spectroscopy revealed excellent thermal stability up to $400^{\circ}C$ and copolymer's interaction with DMF. Electrochemical capacitors fabricated using P(VDF-TrFE) in DMF and ZnO NWs demonstrated high capacitive performance. Furthermore, the gel electrolyte-based supercapacitors demonstrated excellent mechanical durability up to a bend angle of $120^{\circ}$. Novel P(VDF-TrFE) electrolytes could be a promising approach for applications in flexible, fabric-based, and high-efficiency energy devices.

The preparation and electrical properties of LIPON electrolyte were investigated in order to fabricate all solid state thin film battery. The LIPON thin film was deposited by r.f. sputtering of Li$_3$PO$_4$ target in O$_2$-N$_2$ mixtures. The LIPON deposited at N$_2$+10% O$_2$ ratio had a conductivity at 25 $^{\circ}C$ of 1.8${\times}$10$\^$-6/S/cm. The ion conductivity of the LIPON films decreased as the O$_2$ content of the process gas increased.

Solid-state fault current limiters (SSFCL) in power systems are alternative devices to limit prospective short circuit currents from reaching lower levels. Fault current limiters (FCL) can be classified into two categories: R-type (resistive) FCLs and L-type (inductive) FCLs. L-type FCL uses an inductor to limit fault level and is more efficient in suppressing voltage drop during a fault. In contrast, R-type FCL is constructed with a resistance and is more effective in consuming the acceleration energy of generators during a fault. Both functions enhance the transient stability of the power system. In the present paper, a novel SSFCL is proposed to enhance power system transient stability and power quality. The proposed SSFCL uses both functions of an L-type and R-type FCL. SSFCL consists of four diodes, one self-turn-off IGCT, a current-limiting by-pass inductor (L), and a variable resistance parallel with an inductor for improvement of power system stability and prevention of over-voltage across SSFCL. The main advantages of the proposed SSFCL are the simplicity of its structure and control, low steady-state impedance, fast response, and the existence of R-type and Ltype impedances during the fault, all of which improve power system stability and power quality. Simulations are accomplished in PSCAD/EMTDC.

The behaviour of ionic compound crystals under combined chemical and externally applied electrical potential gradients is discussed. Firstly, a systematic overview is given. Then a formal analysis follows. The transport equations of the ions and the electric defects predict that even with reversible electrodes demixing, and in particular decomposition of the compound will occur if the applied d.c. current density is sufficiently high. These predictions are illustrated by appropriate experiments. With the help of the solid solution (Me, Fe)O, where Fe-ions are the dilute species, we investigate experimentally the behaviour of a ternary ionic crystal under a d.c. electric current load. All the compounds were placed in a galvanic cell, and the internal reactions which then could be observed were driven by the electric field in this cell. In addition, we discuss the influence of the electric field on the classical solid state reaction AX+BX=ABX$_2$, if again the reaction couple is placed in a galvanic cell.

Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) have emerged to combine the advantages of polymeric nanoparticles and lipid emulsions in early 1990s. SLNs can present several desirable properties derived from the solid state core. When formulating SLNs, there should be careful considerations about the physical state of the inner solid lipid core and its polymorphism and supercooling behavior. In this review, SLNs were compared to lipid emulsion and emulsion of supercooled melt to understand the unusual behaviors compared to lipid emulsions and to have insights into stability and release mechanism. SLNs have been regarded as biocompatible system because lipids are usually well-tolerable ingredients than polymers. Several studies showed good tolerability of SLNs in terms of cytotoxicity and hemolysis. Similar to various other nanoparticulate drug delivery systems, SLNs can also change biodistribution of the incorporated drugs in a way to enhance therapeutic effect. Most of all, large scale production of SLNs was extablished wihtout using organic solvents. Although there is no SLN product in the market till date, several advantagious properties of SLNs and the progress we have seen so far would make commercial product of SLNs possible before long and encourage research community to apply SLN-based formulations for water-insoluble drugs.

Al and Nb-doped Li₇La₃Zr₂O₁₂ (LLZO) and W-doped LLZO lithium ion conducting electrolyte samples were prepared and their H₂O stability was investigated. The LLZO samples were exposed to 50% humidified air for 48 h. After H₂O exposure, a cubic to tetragonal transformation occurred and acquired SEM images exhibited the presence of reaction phases at the grain boundaries of Al and Nb-LLZO. As a result, the lithium ion conductivity significantly decreased after H₂O exposure. On the contrary, W-LLZO showed good stability against H₂O. Although the cubic to tetragonal transformation was also observed in H₂O-exposed W-LLZO, the decrease in lithium ion conductivity was found to be modest. No morphological changes of the W-LLZO samples were confirmed in the H₂O-exposed W-LLZO samples.
