  • Model for the dynamic simulation of dynamic behaviors of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is provided. This model is based upon (1) coupled mass and heat transfer characteristics and (2) important chemical reactions such as electrochemical and reforming reaction in high temperature fuel cells such as SOFC. It is found that the thermal inertia of solid materials in SOFC plays an important role to the dynamic behavior of cell temperature. Dynamic characteristics of cell voltage, power and chemical compositions with different levels of load changes are investigated.

  • 용융탄산염 연료전지용 anode의 creep 현상을 개선하기 위해 $Ni-5wt.\%Al$ green sheet를 사용하여 다양한 소결조건을 적용, $Al_2O_3$를 형성시킨 전극을 제조하고 그 $Al_2O_3$의 형태에 따른 creep 특성에 대해 연구하였다. 소결은 각각 환원분위기, 완전산화-환원분위기, 부분 산화-환원분위기의 서로 다른 분위기에서 진행하였는데, 부분산화-환원분위기로 소결한 경우 Ni-Al 고용체 네트워크를 깨드리지 않고 $A1_2O_3$를 미세한 입자형태로 분산시킬 수 있었다. 그리고, 상기의 방법으로 제조된 anode를 $650^{\circ}C$에서 100psi로 가압하면서 creep test를 실시한 결과 약 $2.3\%$의 변형율을 나타내었다.

  • The effect of Post-Weld Heat Treatment(PWHT) of SS400 Steel was investigated with parameters such as micro vickers hardness corrosion potential polarization behaviors galvanic current Al anode generating current Al anode weight loss etc. Hardness of each parts(HAZ, BM, WM)by PWHT is lower than that of each parts by Non Post-Weld Heat Treatment(NPWHT) However hardness of WM of HAZ part was the highest among those three parts and HAZ area were also acted as cathode without any case of heat treatment. Potential difference between each three parts by PWHT was also smaller compared to NPWHT. Therefore it is suggested that Corrosion resistance property is increased by PWHT. However both Al anode generating current and anode weight loss was also decreased by PWHT compared to NPWHT when SS400 steel is cathodically protected by Al anode.

  • As the society demands the high performance energy storage devices, development of efficient and renewable energy storage materials has been a topic of interest. Here, we report pseudocapacitive behaviors of biopolymer (lignin) that was confined onto reduced graphene oxides (RGOs) for a renewable energy storage system. The strong surface confinement of quinone groups onto the electroconductive RGOs created the renewable hybrid electrodes for supercapacitors (SCs) with fast and reversible redox charge transfer. As a result, the pseudocapacitors fabricated with the hybrid electrodes of lignin and RGO presented the outstanding electrochemical performances of remarkable rate and cyclic performances:~4% capacitance drop after 3000 cycles and a maximum capacitance of 432 F g-1.

  • Activated carbon nanofibers (ACNF) were prepared from polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based nanofibers using $CO_2$ activation methods with varying activation process times. The surface and structural characteristics of the ACNF were observed by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction, respectively. $N_2$ adsorption isotherm characteristics at 77 K were confirmed by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller and Dubinin-Radushkevich equations. As experimental results, many holes or cavernous structures were found on the fiber surfaces after the $CO_2$ activation as confirmed by scanning electron microscopy analysis. Specific surface areas and pore volumes of the prepared ACNFs were enhanced within a range of 10 to 30 min of activation times. Performance of the porous PAN-based nanofibers as an electrode for electrical double layer capacitors was evaluated in terms of the activation conditions.

  • The complexes [Ni(L)(INT)2]${\cdot}$5H2O (1) and [Cu(L)(H2O)](Cl)(INT)${\cdot}$3H2O (2) (L = 3,14-dimethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazatricyclo[14,4,01.18 ,07.12 ]docosane, INT = isonicotinate) have been prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallography, electronic absorption, and cyclic voltammetry. The crystal structure of 1 reveals an axially elongated octahedral geometry with two axial isonicotinate ligands. The electronic spectra, magnetic moment, and redox potentials of 1 also show a high-spin octahedral geometry. However, 2 shows that the coordination environment around the copper atom is a distorted square-pyramid with an axial water molecule. The spectra and electrochemical behaviors of 2 are also discussed.

  • LDPE/polystyrene cation exchange membranes were prepared through a monomer-sorption method and UV radiation polymerization. The reaction behaviors in the preparation were investigated. The membranes prepared were characterized in terms of physical and electrochemical properties. The membranes exhibited reasonable properties for an ion-exchange membrane with weight gain (Wr) of above 0.3, electrical resistance of below 1.0 Ω $\textrm{cm}^2$ and ion-exchange capacity of 1.8 meq/g-dry membrane. DSC studies and FE-SEM image revealed the formation of a homogeneous membrane. Both the current-voltage and the chronopotentiometric curves of the membranes indicated that LDPE/polystyrene membranes can be properly used at a high current density, and the surface homogeneity of cation-exchange sites in the membrane was comparable to that in a commercial membrane.

  • Eu(Ⅲ) exhibits one electron-transfer reduction at E$_{1/2}$ =-0.617 V vs. Ag/AgCl and the hypersensitive peak at 618 nm corresponding to $^5D_0$ ${\leftrightarro}$ $^7F_2$ transition in 0.10 M LiClO$_4$ aqueous solutions. Upon the addition of carboxylate or sulfonate anions to the Eu(Ⅲ) aqueous solutions, the reduction potential shifts negatively and the reduction current decreases because of the complex formation between Eu(Ⅲ) ions and the anions. However, for the case of carboxylate anion (acetate or propionate) the shift of reduction peak potential and the emission intensity at 618 nm are greater. The results are interpreted in terms of the differences in the formation constants and the hypersensitivity.

  • Six-coordinate molybdenum(V) complexes X[MoO$(NCS)_2$(L)], where X=$PyH^+$, $Me_4N^+$, $Et_4N^+$, n-$Bu_4N^+$, and L= the tridentate schiff base dianions derived from the condensation reaction between various salicylaldehydes and 2-aminophenol have been synthesized. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, conductivity, UV-visible, IR, $^1H$-NMR, and mass spectroscopy. The coordination around the molybdenum appears to be distorted octahedral. A tridentate ligand containing the ONO donor atoms occupies meridional positions with the N atom trans to the terminal oxo group. Two NCS ligands bond to the molybdenum through the N atom and are cis to the Mo = $O_t$ group. The electrochemical behaviors of the complexes have also been investigated by cyclic voltammetry in dimethylsulfoxide.
