웨어러블 디바이스용 유연 전극 소재 개발을 위해 탄소섬유 토우(carbon fibers tow)의 전처리에 따른 전기화학적 특성을 조사하고, 이를 활용하여 포도당을 타겟으로 전기화학적 비효소 센서를 제작하였다. 탄소섬유 토우는 탈사이징(desizing)과 활성화(activation) 공정을 통해 전처리 되었으며, 활성화는 화학적 산화와 전기화학적 산화의 두 가지 방법으로 이루어졌다. 전처리된 샘플은 주사전자 현미경(SEM)을 이용하여 표면 분석되었으며, 전기화학적 특성 및 센싱성능 분석은 시간대전류법와 순환전압 전류법, 전기화학 임피던스 분석법을 이용하여 수행되었다. 탄소섬유 토우는 전처리를 통해 감소된 R_et와 ΔE_p, 증가된 I_p 등 향상된 전기화학적 특성을 보였으며, 두 활성화 방법에서는 유사한 전기화학적 특성이 얻어졌다. 본 연구에서는 전기화학센서 적용을 위해 전기화학적으로 활성화된 탄소섬유 토우를 최종 전극 물질로 선정하였다. 이 전극을 기반으로 제작된 비효소적 포도당 검출 센서는 0.09899~3.754 mM과 3.754~50 mM의 선형 구간에서 각각 0.744 mA/mM과 0.330 mA/mM 정도의 향상된 감도를 보였다. 본 연구를 통해 탄소섬유 토우의 전극 소재로서 사용 가능성을 확인했으며, 고성능 유연 전극 소재 개발에 기초 연구로 활용 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

Several methods for improving dispersion of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been investigated. CNTs modified by acids and hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) showed improved dispersion. From SEM micrographs and photos of dispersion, CNTs modified with nitric acid and $H_2O_2$, showed no agglomeration in solution even standing for 4 months, which means successfully improved dispersion property. TEM micrographs of surface modified single CNT treated with 69% $HNO_3$ in boiling acid solution as the optimum method were obtained. For confirmation of CNTs' application to EDLC electrode materials, characteristics of EDLC have been analyzed by cyclic voltammetry curve, specific capacitance of unit cell, electrode discharge curves and AC impedance curve. From the results, it could be confirmed that electrochemical properties of CNTs were enhanced after surface modification with 69% $HNO_3$ acid treatment.

The construction of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) boats is decreasing trend since the application of international regulations on the control of marine environmental pollution, which recommended the use of environmentally friendly materials. The aluminum alloy used with material for ship is a superior to FRP. It is environmental friendly, easy to recycle, and provides a high added value to fishing boats. However, the welding for Al alloy materials have many problems, such as deformation by welding heat and effect of the working environment. In this paper, it was carried out welding by robot with welding material of ER5183 and ER5556 on 6061-T6 Al alloy for ship. The mechanical and electrochemical characteristics evaluated for specimen welded by robot. The cathodic polarization trend for the base metal and welding metal showed the effects of concentration polarization due to oxygen reduction and activation polarization due to hydrogen generation. The hardnesses of welding zone and heat affected zone are lower than that of base metal. At the result of tensile test, the specimen welded with ER5183 presented excellent property compared with ER5556.

Stainless steel mesh has been used as a filter in various fields, including domestic, medical, etc. However, the surface before machining may have an adverse effect the product quality and performance because it is not smooth. Especially, adsorbed impurities in the surface result in difficulty in cleaning. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an improved surface quality through electrochemical polishing (ECP). Two electrodes, composed of STS304 (anode) and copper (cathode) underwent machining with two conditions according to polishing time and current density. As the polishing time and current density increase, the surface of curvature decreases, and roughness and material removal rate (MRR) improves. The machined surface roughness and image were obtained through the atomic force microscope (AFM) and stereoscopic microscope. The study also analyzed hydrophilic effect through contact angles. This obtains corrosion resistance, smoothness, hydrophilic property, etc.

금속 알루미늄의 낮은 환원전위는 전기화학적 산화반응을 통하여 알루미늄과 그 표면에 존재하는 산화막의 구조 및 성질의 변화를 일으킨다. 산성용액에서 알루미늄을 전기화학적으로 에칭하여 표면적을 확대시키고 중성의 용액에서 알루미늄 표면에 치밀한 유전체 산화막을 형성시켜 커패시터의 전극으로 이용하고 있다. 저온의 산성용액에서는 양극산화시 나노크기의 다공층 산화막이 형성되며, 나노구조체의 템플레이트로 사용되고 있다. 이와같은 알루미늄의 전기화학적 특성은 알루미늄을 새로운 기능성을 가진 재료로 변화시킴으로서 다양한 분야에서 응용될 것으로 기대된다.

The benzophenone derivatives(4-$CH_3O$-4'-$NO_2$ and 3,4'-di-$NO_2$) are synthesized by the Fridel-Craft acylation and the nitration method. Electrochemical redox potentials of the benzophenone derivatives (4-$CH_3O$, H, 3-Cl, 3-$NO_2$, 4-$NO_2$, 4-$CH_3O$-4'-$NO_2$, 3,4'-di-$NO_2$) are measured by using cyclic voltammometry. In the relationship of summing Hammett value and redox potential, we find a proportional constant$(\rho)$ that shows a good relation with an electrochemical property and a reactivity of the benzophenone derivatives. The benzophenone substituted with the electron donating groups(4-$OCH_3$ and 4-$OCH_3-4'-NO_2$) are higher the energy in the LUMO level, then increasing a band-gap energy$(E_g)$, their $E_gs$ are obtained as a 3.94 eV and 3.59 eV, respectively.

To examine the effects of a two-cation ionic liquid as an electrolyte component of a supercapacitor, 1,4-bis(3-methylimidazolium-1-yl)butane tetrafluoroborate ($MIBBF_4$), dissolved in propylene carbonate (PC) or acetonitrile (ACN), is newly synthesized and tested here for potential use as an electrolyte of capacitor. The $MIBBF_4$ salt exhibits higher ionic conductivity in ACN than in PC. The supercapacitive properties of capacitors containing an activated carbon electrode and various electrolytes are evaluated using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The capacitor adopting the $MIBBF_4$/ACN electrolyte shows the largest specific capacitance at low scan rates, whereas the capacitor adopting the 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate $(EMIBF_4)$/ACN electrolyte shows the largest specific capacitance at high scan rates.

We carried out this subject to observe electrochemical properties of 1,2-dioleoyl-sn- glycero-3-phosphocholine(DOPC) mixed with fatty acid containing azobenzene group by using cyclic voltammetry with a three-electrode system, An Ag/AgCl reference electrode, a platinum wire counter electrode and LB film-coated ITO working electrode in $NaClO_4$ solution. We investigated the photoisomerization and electrochemical property of the organic ultra thin film of fatty acid containing azobenzene was prepared on the hydrophilic ITO(idium tin oxide) glass plate by LB method. As a result, the absorption spectra of BASH and DOPC of mixture LB films was induced to photoisomerization by alternating irradiation of ultraviolet and visible light. A measuring range was reduced from initial potential to -1350mV, continuously oxidized to 1650 mV and measured to the initial point. The scan rate were 50, 100, 150 and 200 mV/s. As a results, LB films of BASH-DMPC appeared reversible process caused by the reduction-oxidation current from the cyclic voltammogram.

The polyaniline (PANI) electrodes are prepared by chemical synthesis and electrodeposition methods and their supercapacitive properties are characterized and compared by morphology observation, cyclic voltammetry as a function of scan rate, and impedance spectra analysis. In particular, the supercapacitive properties obtained in the range of higher potential scan rates (e.g., over $200mV\;s^{-1}$) are emphasized to be capable of utilizing adequately the high power capability of supercapacitor. As a result, the PANI electrode by the electrodeposition shows superior specific capacitance (max. $474F\;g^{-1}$ at $10mV\;s^{-1}$ and about $390F\;g^{-1}$ at $500mV\;s^{-1}$) than those by the chemical synthesis method. This is mainly due to highly porous structure obtained by the electrodeposition to yield higher specific surface area.
