탄소계 전극을 사용하는 EDLC(Electric Double Layer Capacitor)용의 축전용량과 충방전속도는 전해질의 종류, 충방전 조건 그리고 탄소계 물질의 물리화학적 성질에 따라 크게 달라질 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 dip coating method에 의해 제조된 EDLC용 활성탄소 전극에서 유기 전해질의 종류를 달리하여 충방전 실험과 전기화학적인 실험을 시행하였다. 또한 충전전류밀도와 방전전류밀도의 변화에 따른 비축전 용량의 변화를 조사하였고, 최적 유기전해질의 조건에서 leakage current 특성, 자가방전 특성 그리고 시간전압곡선을 기존의 $1M-Et_4NBF_4/PC$와 비교하였다 활성탄, 소전극으로 비표면적이 $2000m^2/g$인 MSP-20을 사용하고 유기전해질로는 $1M-LiPF_6/PC-DEC(1:1)$를 사용한 EDLC에서 130 F/g 정도의 우수한 비축전 용량을 나타내었고 저항면에서도 가장 낮은 수치를 나타내었다 $1M-LiPF_6/PCDEC(1:1)$를 사용한 EDLC는 15분동안 0.0004A의 낮은 leakage current와 100시간 경과 후 0.8V의 우수한 자가 방전 특성 그리고 IR-drop이 적은 선형의 시간-전압곡선을 보여주었다.

A three-dimensional (3D) $Co_3O_4$/mildly oxidized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (moCNTs)/reduced mildly oxidized graphene oxide (rmGO) ternary composite was prepared via a simple and green hydrolysishydrothermal approach by mixing $Co(Ac)_2{\cdot}4H_2O$ with moCNTs and mGO suspension in mixed ethanol/$H_2O$. As characterized by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, $Co_3O_4$ nanoparticles with size of 20-100 nm and moCNTs are effectively anchored in mGO. Cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge measurements were adopted to investigate the electrochemical properties of $Co_3O_4$/moCNTs/rmGO ternary composite in 6 M KOH solution. In a potential window of 0-0.6 V vs. Hg/HgO, the composite delivers an initial specific capacitance of 492 $Fg^{-1}$ at 0.5 $Ag^{-1}$ and the capacitance remains 592 $Fg^{-1}$ after 2000 cycles, while the pure $Co_3O_4$ shows obviously capacitance fading, indicating that rmGO and moCNTs greatly enhance the electrochemical performance of $Co_3O_4$.

In recent years, the supercapacitor and hybrid capacitor have related with substitutional energy source focused of many scientists because of their usage in power sources for electric vehicles, computers and other electric devices. The storage energy of electrical charge is based on electrostatic interactions in the electric double layer at the electrode/electrolyte interface, resulting in high rate capability and long cycle performance compared with batteries based on Faradaic electrode reactions. So we have been considered to carbon nanofibers as the ideal material for supercapacitors due to their high utilization of specific surface area, good conductivity, chemical stability and other advantages. In this work, we aimed to find out that the capacitance have increased because of electrochemical capacitance to provide by carbon nanofibers. Also carbon nanofibers based on chemical method and water treatment have been resulted larger capacitances and also exhibit better electrochemical behaviors about 15% than before of nontreated state. And also optical observations with treated and nontrteated carbon nanofibers discussed by the TEM, SEM, EDX, BET works and specific surface area analyzer. Their results also focused on the surface area of electrode and electrical capacitance was also improved by the effect of surface treatments.

니들 코크스의 활성화를 위해 $HNO_3$와 $NaClO_3$ 혼합용액에서의 산처리와 열처리를 행하였다. 산화처리 코크스와 열처리한 코크스의 미세구조는 XRD, FESEM, elemental analysis, BET, Raman spectroscopy를 이용하였으며, 전기이중층 거동은 충방전 분석을 행하였다. 니들 코크스는 산화처리 시간에 따라 산소의 중량 %의 증가와 함께 층간이 분리되어(001) 구조로 상변화가 일어나고, $200^{\circ}C$ 이상의 열처리에서 흑연구조 특성인(002) 구조로 되돌아갔다. 이들 산화처리 과정에서 층간에 관능기가 도입 되어 구조결함이 발생하고 1차 충전에서 전계 활성화에 의해 층간을 확장되어 2차 충전에서 전기이중층 용량을 발생 시키는 것으로 보인다. 24시간 산화처리후 $300^{\circ}C$ 열처리한 코크스의 2.5 V까지의 2 전극 기준에서 구한 활물질 중량 당 용량과 전극 부피 당 용량은 각각 32.1 F/g과 29.5 F/ml을 나타내었다.

그래핀의 저차원 구조에서 기인하는 우수한 전기적/기계적 특성을 지닌 3차원 그래핀 나노 구조체는 높은 다공성과 비표면적을 가지고 있기 때문에 전기화학 에너지 저장 전극 물질로 각광을 받고 있다. 또한 도파민은 카테콜아민 구조를 갖고 있어 다양한 유무기 재료와의 결합력이 뛰어나고, 소수성 재료를 친수성으로 개질시킬 수 있는 다기능 소재이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 도파민을 3차원 그래핀 나노 구조체에 코팅하여, 전해질과의 젖음성을 증대시켜 전기화학 전극의 비축전용량을 개선하고, 3차원 나노 네트워크 간 결합력을 올려 기계적 압축 특성을 증가시키고자 하였다. 연구 결과, 도파민이 코팅된 3차원 그래핀 나노 구조체는 전기화학 비축전용량이 51.5%, 압축 응력은 59.6%로 증가하는 높은 개선 효과를 나타내었다.

전기 에너지를 가장 직접적으로 저장하는 기기로써 우리는 흔히 전지(battery)와 콘덴서(condenser)를 생각한다. 산업혁명 이후 과학과 기술의 엄청난 발전에 따라 여러 분야에서 다양한 문명이기의 개발과 활용이 있어왔지만 우리 생활에 밀접히 활용되고 있으며 각종 전기전자 시스템의 핵심 구성품인 이러한 전지나 콘덴서의 기술 발전 속도는 다른 분야에 비하여 상대적으로 뒤쳐진 상황이라고 볼 수 있다. 그러나 최근 10여년 동안 괄목할 만한 소재기술의 발전에 힘입어서 재래식의 콘덴서는 물론 니켈수소전지, 리튬이온전지, 리튬폴리머전지 등과 같은 최신형 2차전지들 조차도 갖지 못하는 장수명, 고출력 특성을 갖는 새로운 형식의 전기에너지 저장장치인 '전기화학커패시터(electrochemical capacitor)'의 개발이 실현되고 있다. 이에, 본 고에서는 전기화학커패시터에 대한 기본적인 이해와 이의 최신기술 동향에 대하여 간략히 소개하기로 한다.

The inhibition ability of N,N-bis(2,4-dihydroxyhydroxybenzaldehyde)-1,3-Propandiimine (DHBP) as a schiff base against the corrosion of API-5L-X65 steel in 1 M HCl solution was evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, potentiodynamic polarization and scanning electron microscopy. Electrochemical impedance studies indicated that DHBP inhibited corrosion by blocking the active corrosion sites. The inhibition efficiency increased with increasing inhibitor concentrations. EIS data was analysed to equivalent circuit model and showed that the charge transfer resistance of steel increased with increasing inhibitor concentration whilst the double layer capacitance decreased. The adsorption of this compound obeyed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Gibbs free energy of adsorption was calculated and indicated that adsorption occurred through physical and spontaneous process. The corrosion inhibition mechanism was studied by potential of zero charge. Polarization studies indicated that DHBP retards both the cathodic and anodic reactions through adsorption on steel surface. Scanning electron microscopy was used to study the steel surface with and without inhibitor.

A conducting polymer layer was introduced into the pore surface of mesoporous carbon via vapor infiltration of a monomer and subsequent chemical oxidative polymerization. The polypyrrole, conducting polymer has attracted considerable attention due to the high electrical conductivity and stability under ambient conditions. The mesoporous carbon-polypyrrole nanocomposite exhibited the retained porous structure, such as mesoporous carbon with a three-dimensionally connected pore system after intercalation of the polypyrrole layer. In addition, the controllable addition of pyrrole monomer can provide the mesoporous carbon-polypyrrole nanocomposites with a tunable amount of polypyrrole and texture property. The polypyrrole layer improved the electrode performance in the electrochemical double layer capacitor. This improved electrochemical performance was attributed to the high surface area, open pore system with three-dimensionally interconnected mesopores, and reversible redox behavior of the conducting polypyrrole. Furthermore, the correlation between the amount of polypyrrole and capacitance was investigated to check the effect of the polypyrrole layer on the electrochemical performance.

Activated carbon was synthesized from bamboo charcoal by KOH activation at various temperatures for electrochemical double layer capacitor applications. The micro-structural and surface properties of all the samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and N2 adsorption/desorption isotherm method. The electrochemical properties of the activated bamboo charcoal were examined by cyclic voltammetry in the potential window of -1.0 to 0.2 V in 6 M KOH electrolyte at different scan rates. An electrode made from the sample activated with 7.5 M KOH and heat treated at $750^{\circ}C$ for 3 h gave a maximum capacitance of 553 F/g at 1 mV/s and 450 F/g at 10mV/s.

An electric double-layer capacitor(EDLC) is an electrochemical capacitor with relatively high energy density, typically hundreds of times greater than conventional electrolytic capacitors. EDLCs are widely used for energy storage rather than as general-purpose circuit components. They have a variety of commercial applications, notably in energy smoothing and momentary-load devices, and energy-storage and kinetic energy recovery system devices used in vehicles, etc. This paper presents an accelerated degradation test of an EDLC with rated voltage 2.7V, capacitance 100F, and usage temperature $-40^{\circ}C{\sim}65^{\circ}C$. The EDLCs are tested at $50^{\circ}C$, $60^{\circ}C$, and $70^{\circ}C$, respectively for 1,750hours, and their capacitances are measured at predetermined times by constant current discharge method. The failure times are predicted from their capacitance deterioration patterns, where the failure is defined as 30% capacitance decrease from the initial one. It is assumed that the lifetime distribution of EDLC follows Weibull and Arrhenius life-stress relationship holds. The life-stress relationship, acceleration factor, and $B_{10}$ life at design condition are estimated by analyzing the accelerated life test data.
