본 총설에서는 캐패시터적인 특성을 가지는 다공성 전극의 전기화학특성 분석에 활용되는 임피던스의 복소캐패시턴스 분석법(complex capacitance analysis)의 이론 및 응용에 대해 정리하였다. 이론적으로 캐패시터적인 특성을 갖는 전기화학시스템에 대해 캐패시턴스허수부 도시를 활용하면 효과적인 해석이 가능함이 제시되었다. 또한, 복소캐패시턴스 분석법은 다공성 탄소 재료/전극의 EDLC 특성, 미세기공 내부의 이온전도 특성, 고분자전해질연료전지의 촉매층 이온저항 등의 분석에 효과적으로 적용될 수 있음이 검증되었다.

The methyl 2-(1,3-dithietan -2- ylidene)-3-oxobutanoate (MDYO) and 2-(1,3-dithietan-2-ylidene) cyclohexane -1,3-dione (DYCD) were synthesized and tested at various concentrations as corrosion inhibitors for 316L stainless steel in 1 M HCl using weight loss, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), surface analysis techniques (SEM / EDX and Raman spectroscopy) and Functional Density Theory (DFT) was also used to calculate quantum parameters. The obtained results indicated that the inhibition efficiency of MDYO and DYCD increases with their concentration, and the highest value of corrosion inhibition efficiency was determined in the range of concentrations investigated (0.01 × 10^-3 - 10^-3 M). Polarization curves (Tafel extrapolation) showed that both compounds act as mixed-type inhibitors in 1M HCl solutions. Electrochemical impedance spectra (Nyquist plots) are characterized by a capacitive loop observed at high frequencies, and another small inductive loop near low frequencies. The thermodynamic data of adsorption of the two compounds on the stainless steel surface and the activation energies were determined and then discussed. Analysis of experimental results shows that MDYO and DYCD inhibitors adsorb to the metal surface according to the Langmuir model and the mechanism of adsorption of both inhibitors involves physisorption. SEM-EDX results confirm the existence of an inhibitor protective film on the stainless steel surface. The results derived from theoretical calculations supported the experimental observation.
