The electrochemical reduction of coumarin derivatives in 0.1M TEAP acetonitrile solution was investigated by the direct current, differential pulse polarography, cyclic voltammetry and controlled potential coulometry. The electrochemical reduction of 7-acetoxy-4-bromomethyl-coumarin(ABMC) was proceeded as an irreversible three steps(-0.58, -1.63 and -2.25 volts) of electrochemical transfer before chemical reaction. The solution color turned to yellow after the carboxyl group was reduced at 2nd step(-1.63 volts vs. Ag-AgCl) and the change in color was independant to the bromo group. Upon the basis of the results on the products analysis and the interpretaton of polarograms, a possible electrochemical reaction mechanism was suggested.

In this study, we report niobium (Nb) with hierarchical porous structure produced by a one-pot, HF-free electrochemical etching process. It is proved experimentally that a well-defined hierarchical porous structure is produced from the combination of a limited repetition of pulse etching and high concentration of aggressive anion (i.e., SO₄^2-), which results in hierarchical pores with high order over 3. A formula is derived for the surface area of porous Nb as a function of the hierarchical order of pores while the experimental surface area is estimated on the basis of the electrochemical gas evolution rate on porous Nb. From the comparison of the theoretical and experimental surface areas, an in-depth understanding was gained about porous structure produced in this work in terms of the actual pore shape and hierarchical pore order.

Spent activated carbons (SACs) collected from a water treatment plant were regenerated and then adopted as electrochemical material in capacitors. The SACs used in this study were regenerated via two steps, namely thermal and chemical activation. However, during the activation process, the adsorbates were converted into ashes, which caused pore blockage and decreased specific surface area. The regenerated SACs were washed with acid solutions with different levels of acidity (strong: HCl, mild: H₃PO₄, and weak: H₂O₂) to remove the ashes. The regenerated SACs washed with HCl exhibited the highest specific surface area, although their capacitance was not the highest. Conversely, the specific surface area of regenerated SACs washed using H₃PO₄ was slightly lower than that of HCl, but exhibited higher capacitance and electrochemical stability. Although the strong acid removed the generated ashes in the pores efficiently, it could adversely affect their structural stability, which would lead to lower capacitance.

There is a growing demand for simple, cost-effective, and accurate analytical tools to determine the concentrations of biological and environmental compounds. In this study, a stable electroactive thin film of cobalt hexacyanoferrate (Cohcf) was prepared as an in situ chemical precipitant using electrostatic adsorption of $Co^{2+}$ on a silicate sol-gel matrix (SSG)-modified indium tin oxide electrode pre-adsorbed with $[Fe(CN)_6]^{3-}$ ions. The modified electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electrochemical techniques. Electrocatalytic oxidation of hydrazine on the modified electrode was studied. An electrochemical sensor for hydrazine was constructed on the SSG-Cohcf-modified electrode. The oxidation peak currents showed a linear relationship with the hydrazine concentration. This study provides insight into the in situ growth and stability behavior of Cohcf nanostructures and has implications for the design and development of advanced electrode materials for fuel cells and sensor applications.

As the consumer market in the mold, automation and aerospace industries grows, the demand for chemical machining using on electrochemical polishing increases. To enhance the surface roughness and gloss of the micro-needle, we have studied for an electrochemical polishing. Electrochemical polishing requires the chemical reaction of solution and material according to the electrolyte and electrode. In this study, sulfuric acid(30%), phosphoric acid(50%), and DI-water(20%)were used as the electrolytic solution, and the electrolytic solution temperature used $58^{\circ}C$. Electrochemical polishing was carried out in experimental conditions, and the micro-needle experiment was carried out from the basic experiment to obtain the experimental conditions. Experimental results show that as the voltage and current increase, the surface roughness improved and the gloss is improved. So, the best result for this experiment was obtained in condition 6, which improved micro-needle.

In this study, the new electrochemical cell device using Arduino and sensor was developed, and experiments of changes in voltage at the time of serial and parallel connection of electrochemical cells were conducted to verify the effectiveness of the device. In addition, in order to examine the educational effects of the device, student's inquiry activities of measuring voltage of electrochemical cells and making objects using the voltage difference were conducted. As a result, it was confirmed that the electrochemical device using Arduino and sensor could not only perform automatic measurements and visualize data but also have a possibility to seek various educational effects through easy coding and modification of the device. Based on the results of students' performance, it was found that experimental activities using the device impart a positive effect not only on the understanding of scientific concepts, but also on the development of the practical ability to apply scientific knowledges to the real life. Educational implications are discussed in terms of 'learning by making'.
