A zinc-air battery consists of a zinc anode, an air cathode, an electrolyte, and a separator. The active material of the positive electrode is oxygen contained in the ambient air. Therefore, zinc-air batteries have an open cell configuration. The external condition is one of the main factors for zinc-air batteries. One of the most important external conditions is temperature. To confirm the effect of temperature on the electrochemical properties of zinc-air batteries, we perform various analyses under different temperatures. Under 60 ℃ condition, the zinc-air cell shows an 84.98 % self-discharge rate. In addition, high corrosion rate and electrolyte evaporation rate are achieved at 60 ℃. Among the cells stored at various temperature conditions, the cell stored at 50 ℃ delivers the highest discharge capacity; it also shows the highest self-discharge rate (65.33 %). On the other hand, the cell stored at 30 ℃ shows only 2.28 % self-discharge rate.

$Al_2O_3$ capping layer and MgO protective layer were deposited by electron beam evaporation method using single crystal source. Thickness of the capping layer, $Al_2O_3$, was varied from 5 nm to 10 nm. Surface morphology was observed by SEM and AFM before and after hydration. And microstructure of deposited $Al_2O_3$ layer and chemical shift of electron binding energy were also observed by high resolution TEM and XPS, respectively, after hydration. From these results, it was found that Mg atoms diffused into $Al_2O_3$ layer, reacted with moisture and formed $Mg(OH)_2$ during hydration. As thickness of $Al_2O_3$ increased, extent of hydration increased. $Al_2O_3$ capped MgO thin films and uncapped MgO thin films were deposited on AC-PDP test panel to characterize discharge properties. Although $Al_2O_3$ has poor discharge properties rather than MgO, because of many hydrated species on the surface of MgO, similar discharge properties were observed.

In this article modification of wool fibers and fabrics by pulse corona discharge and enzymes, in particular purified keratinase with a single component has been carried out to improve their surface properties. The shrinkproofing, tensile strength, weight loss, and the primary hand values calculated from the mechanical properties of the dual treated wool fabrics were investigated. In addition, the surface morphology of wool fiber was observed under the dry and wet conditions using an environmental SEM, ESEM.

Plasma polymerized thin films were prepared using an interelectrode capacitively coupled gas flow type reactor. Hexamethyldisiloxane was chosen as the monomer to be used. The dielectric properties of the thin films have been investigated with the changes of discharge power, heat treatment temperature and frequency. The relative dielectric constant was increased with an increasing of discharge power, but was decreased with an increasing of heat treatment temperature.

Two kinds of the ac-plasma display panel (PDP) with the comb type and the matrix type electrodes were fabricated. The discharge properties were studied as a function of as species (Ne and Ne+He+Xe) and its pressure. The firing voltages (Vf) of the PDP with comb type electrodes were 159 V and 195 V under pure Ne and ne+He+Xe(68:30:2) gas mixture respectively. In case of PDP cell with the matrix type electrodes the Vf was increased to 200 V for pure Ne and 240 V for Ne+He+Xe gas mixture under the same gas pressure(300 mbar).

Bus bars are used in place of cables because they can carry more electrical energy with the same volume of conductors. This paper deals with the electrical properties of ceramic coating material for busbars. A ceramic coated samples were prepared for the electrical properties test. There are two types of samples. One is a sample without degradation, and the other is a sample degraded for 30 days. Four electrical properties tests were carried out in accordance with domestic standards. Four electrical characteristics tests are AC dielectric breakdown, V-t, lighting impulse dielectric breakdown, and discharge arc. Both samples showed excellent electrical properties, and the ceramic coating material is very good insulating materials for bus bar.

Wool fabrics were treated with dichloro isocyanuric acid (DCCA) and dyed with acid dyes (C.I. Acid Red 18), and then, they were treated by sputter etching. Wool fabrics had been sputtered with aluminium under various conditions such as sputter etching time and discharge power in the presence of argon gas. We compared mechanical properties, colour difference and fastness properties of these samples one another: Mechanical properties and colour difference of sputtered wool fabrics changed by sputter etching time, discharge power and DCCA concentration. Light fastness showed a rising tendency but rubbing fastness showed a downward tendency when sputter etching time was 7 minutes.

PD in defect of solid insulation system is very harmful since It often leads to deterioration of insulation by the combined action of the discharge ions bombarding the surface and the action of chemical compounds that are formed by the discharge. PD can indicate incipient failure, so it has been used to determine degradation of insulation. In this paper. we investigated PD in defects of solid insulation by using statical method and classified PD patterns with surface discharge, electrical tree and void discharge by using Kohonen network. we used peak charge, average discharge power, average discharge current, repetition rate, skewness, kurtosis, QN of the max pulse height vs. repetition rate $H_q(n)$ for analysis and classification.

Carbon nanotube (CNT) properties, produced using a magnetic null discharge (MND) plasma production technology, were investigated. We firstly deposited the Fe layer 200 nm in thickness on Si substrate by the magnetic null discharge sputter method at the substrate temperature of $300도C$, and then prepared CNTs on the catalyst layer by using the magnetic null discharge (MND) based CVD method. CNTs were deposited in a gas mixture of CH4 and N2 at a total pressure of 1 Torr by the MND-CVD method. The substrate temperature and the RF power were $650^{\circ}C$ and 600W, respectively. The characterization data indicated that the proposed source could synthesize CNTs even under relatively severe conditions for the magnetic null discharge formation.

As the temperature of the panel increases in AC-PDPs, the minimum driving voltage increases. Also, as the more the number of discharge increases in cells, the probability of the strong dark discharge in the reset period increases. In this study, we investigated the relationship between the lag time of the discharge and the mechanism of mis-discharges which are the black noise and bright noise. We conclude that the variation of time lag characterizes the properties of exo-electron emission from MgO. Thus, we found that the main factor of the mis-discharges is the rate of change of the electron emission ability from the MgO surface.
