탄소 피복된 Si/Cu 분말을 기계적인 볼-밀링(ball-milling) 방법과 고온에서 탄화수소가스 분해 방법에 의해 제조하여 리튬이차전지용 음극으로 사용하였고 이에 대한 전기화학적 거동을 조사하였다. 천연흑연(natural graphite)을 이용하여 탄소 피복된 Si/Cu/graphite 복합체 음극소재를 제조하였으며 천연흑연 음극소재와 전기화학적 특성을 비교하였다. 탄소 피복된 Si/Cu 음극의 가역적 비용량은 초기 10 싸이클까지 지속적인 증가를 나타냈다. 탄소 피복된 Si/Cu/graphite 복합체 음극의 가역적 비용량은 $0.25mA/cm^2$ 전류밀도에서 450mAh/g이고 초기 싸이클 효율은 81.3%로 나타났다. 복합체 음극의 싸이클 성능은 가역적인 비용량값을 제외하고 천연흑연 음극과 유사하게 나타났다.

Electrochemical migration characteristics of Pb-free solder alloys are quantitatively correlated with corrosion characteristics in harsh environment conditions. In-situ water drop test and corrosion resistance test for Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu solder alloys were carried out in NaBr and NaF solutions to obtain the electrochemical migration lifetime and pitting potential, respectively. Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu solder alloy shows similar ionization and electrochemical migration behavior with pure Sn because of Ag and Cu do not migrate due to the formation of resistant intermetallic compounds inside solder itself. Electrochemical migration lifetime in NaBr is longer than in NaF, which seems to be closely related to higher pitting potential in NaBr than NaF solution. Therefore, it was revealed that electrochemical migration lifetime of Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu solder alloys showed good correlation to the corrosion resistance, and also the initial ionization step at anode side is believed to be the rate-determining step during electrochemical migration of Pb-free solders in these environments.

전기자동차 시장의 급속한 성장으로 이차전지의 사용이 급증함에 따라 사용 후 전지의 폐기 및 재활용이 심각한 문제로 제기되고 있다. 사용 후 리튬이온 전지를 처리하기 위해서는 저장된 에너지를 제거하기 위하여 효과적으로 방전하는 과정이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 흑연과 LiNi_0.6Co_0.2Mn_0.2O₂ (NCM622)을 사용하여 코인셀 형태로 반쪽전지 및 완전지를 제조하였고, 이를 과방전할 때 발생하는 전기화학적 거동에 대하여 분석하였다. 반쪽전지를 사용하여 양극과 음극을 각각 과방전시키면, 양극에서는 먼저 전이금속 산화물이 금속으로 환원되는 전환반응을 겪게 되며, 음극에서는 SEI 피막의 분해에 이어 집전체인 Cu가 용출되는 부반응이 발생하였다. 또한, 이러한 과방전의 발생 시에는 큰 분극을 필요로 하였다. 완전지의 과방전 시에는 각각의 부반응이 진행되는 시점에 존재하는 큰 분극들로 인하여 부반응의 본격적인 발생 전에 0 V에 도달하여 방전이 종료되었다. 그러나, 사이클을 통하여 용량이 퇴화된 완전지의 경우에는 과방전거동이 변화하여 음극에서 Cu 집전체의 부식이 발생됨을 확인하였다. 따라서, 사용 후 전지는 사용 전의 전지와는 과방전 시에 다른 거동을 지니고 있으므로 이러한 점들이 고려되어야 한다.

The $Cu_2O/TiO_2$ inverse opal heterojunction arrays were developed by electrochemical deposition of $Cu_2O$ nanoparticles on $TiO_2$ inverse opal arrays. The $Cu_2O$ nanoparticles completely filled the inner pores of $TiO_2$ inverse opal film (prepared by liquid phase deposition with an average thickness of 400 nm) and covered the entire area; exhibiting high crystalline properties of anatase and cubic phase from $TiO_2$ and $Cu_2O$, respectively. From asymmetric current-voltage profile, it was noticeable that a heterojunction was well formed for charge transport from $Cu_2O$ to $TiO_2$ film resulting from the enhanced charge separation yield. In addition, increased photocurrent of 0.19 $mA/cm^2$ (versus 0.08 $mA/cm^2$ under dark condition) was obtained at -0.35 V from the heterojunction structure in the 0.5M $Na_2SO_4$ solution.

The electrochemical behavior of vilogen self-assembled monolayer has been investigated with QCM, which has been known as ng order mass detector. The self-assembly process of viologen was monitored using resonant frequency(${\Delta}F$) and resonant resistance(R). The QCM measurements indicated a mass adsorption for viologen assembling on the gold surface with a frequency change about 300, 135 Hz and calculated its surface coverage($\Gamma$) to be $5.02{\times}10^{-9}$ and $1.64{\times}10^{-9}mol/cm^2$. Also a reversible redox process was observed and analyzed with an ionic interaction at the Viologen/solution interface using ${\Delta}F$.

The phase-shift method and correlation constants, which are unique electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques for studying the linear relationship between the phase shift ($90^{\circ}{\geq}-{\varphi}{\geq}0^{\circ}$) vs. potential (E) behavior for the optimum intermediate frequency ($f_o$) and the fractional surface coverage ($0{\leq}{\theta}{\leq}1$) vs. E behavior, are proposed and verified to determine the Frumkin, Langmuir, and Temkin adsorption isotherms and the related electrode kinetic and thermodynamic parameters. At Ni/0.5 M $H_2SO_4$ and 0.1M LiOH aqueous solution interfaces, the Frumkin and Temkin adsorption isotherms (${\theta}$ vs. E) of H for the cathodic hydrogen ($H_2$) evolution, interaction parameters (g), equilibrium constants (K), standard Gibbs energies (${\Delta}G^0_{\theta}$) of H adsorption, and rates of change (r) of ${\Delta}G^0_{\theta}$ with ${\theta}$ have been determined using the phase-shift method and correlation constants. A lateral repulsive interaction (g>0) between the adsorbed H species appears. The value of K in the alkaline aqueous solution is much greater than that in the acidic aqueous solution.

The electrochemical behavior of binder-free carbon anode, comprising of only artificial and natural graphite (AG and NG) particles, for intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ion $(Li^+)$ in aluminum chloride (AICI_3)-I-ethyl­3-methylimidazolium chloride (EMIC)-lithium chloride (LiCl)-thionyl chloride $(SOCI_2)$ room-temperature molten salt (RTMS) was studied. Binder-free carbon electrodes were fabricated using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method. The binder-free carbon anodes provided a relatively flat charge and discharge potentials $(0\;to\;0.2V\;vs.\;Li/Li^+)$ and current capabilities $(250-340mAh{\cdot}g^{-1})$ for the intercalation and deintercalation of $Li^+$. Stability of the binder-free carbon anodes for intercalation and deintercalation of 50 cycles was confirmed.

Gallium is an important element in the production of a variety of compound semiconductors for optoelectronic devices. Gallium has a low melting point and is easily oxidized to give oxides of different compositions that depend on the conditions of solutions containing Ga. Gallium electrode reaction is highly irreversible in acidic media at the dropping mercury electrode. The passive film on a gallium surface is formed during anodic oxidation of gallium metal in alkaline media. Besides, some results in published reports have not been consistent and reproducible. An increase in the demand of intermetallic compounds and semiconductors containing gallium gives rise to studies on electrosynthesis of them and an increase of gallium concentration in the environment with various application of gallium causes the development of electroanalysis tools of Ga. It is required to understand the electrochemistry of Ga and to predict the electrochemical behavior of Ga to meet these needs. Any review papers related to the electrochemistry of gallium have not been published since 1978, when the review on the subject was published by Popova et al. In this study, the redox behavior, anodic oxidation, and electrodeposition of gallium, and trace determination of gallium by stripping voltammetries will be reviewed.

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) will administer a new 0.5% global sulfur cap on fuel content from 1 January 2020, lowering from the present 3.5% limit. Seawater $SO_x$ (sulfur oxide) scrubbing is especially spray scrubbing and a promising alternative to complying with the IMO regulation. However, the ionization of $SO_2$ (sulfur dioxide) and the $H_2SO_4$ (sulfuric acid) formed from $SO_3$ (sulfur trioxide) is proposed to accelerate corrosion of the internal seawater pipe. Apparently, the corrosion of the scrubber seawater piping system occurs in a severe and frequent manner. Hence, in this study, electrochemical measurement and weight loss of carbon steel (used as seawater pipe in most of the ships) in diluted sulfuric acid solution were investigated to determine corrosion rate, corrosion current density, corrosion potential, electrochemical behavior, and impressed-current density. Accordingly, the corrosion rate of carbon steel sheet in various diluted sulfuric acid solutions was observed to be greater than that in natural seawater, thus suggesting the fundamental data to deal with corrosion problems in scrubber seawater pipe.
