Ionic liquids based on l-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium cation $(EMI^+)$ and inorganic or organic anions containing fluorine atoms were applied to electrolyte materials for double-layer capacitors. The double-layer capacitors composed of a pair of activated carbon electrodes and an ionic liquid selected from $EMIBF_4,\; EMINbF_6,\;EMITaF_6,\;EMICF_3SO_3,\;EMI(CF_3SO_2)_2N,\;and\;EMI(C_2F_5SO_2)_2N$ showed inferior low-temperature characteristics to those of a conventional nonaqueous electrolyte based on propylene carbonate (PC) solvent. On the other hand, the capacitor using $EMIF{\cdot}2.3HF$ showed excellent low-temperature characteristics due to its high conductivity at low temperatures, however, it had a lower working voltage $(\~2V)$ than the conventional nonaqueous counterpart $(\~3V)$.

In this paper, we investigated ionic impurities and physical properties by change of carbon black content, which is asemiconductive material for underground power transmission. Specimens were made into sheet form with three existing resins and nine specimens for measurement. The ionic impurities of the specimens were measured using anICP-AES (Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometer), and the density of specimens was measured by a density meter. Specific heat (Cp) was then measured using aDSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry). The ranges of measurement temperature were from 0[$^{\circ}C$] to 200[$^{\circ}C$], and heating temperature was 4[$^{\circ}C$/min]. Ionic impurities were measured to be high according to increases in the content of carbon black from this experimental result and density was also increased according to these properties. In particular, the impurity content values of A1 and A2, and existing resins, were measured at more than 4000[ppm]. Specific heat from the DSC results was lowered according to augmentation in the content of carbon black. The ionic impurities of carbon black containing Fe, Co, Mn, Al and Zn are forms of rapidly passed kinetic energy that increase the number of times breaking occurs during unit time with the near particles according to an increase in the vibration of particles by the applied heat energy.

Commonly, the flocculant is dissolved in process or recycle water in industrial plant which has many ionic materials. Therefore, the polymer degradation in aqueous solution by chemical, mechanical or bacteriological may occur, sometimes rapidly. Even if the same flocculant is dissolved, the flocculation characteristics and the properties of dissolving polymer varied with the kind of dissolving water. In this study, we try to estimate the interaction between flocculants and ionic materials in dissolving water using self inversing emulsion polymer; polyacrylamide-co-trimethyl ammonium ethyl acrylate chloride flocculants which have varying molecular weights and structures at a several conditions. The polymeric flocculant is dissolved in artificial dissolving water with Potassium Chloride (PC), Calcium Chloride anhydrous (CC), Potassium Hydroxide (PH), Sodium Chloride (SC), Sodium Bromate (SB) and Iron (II) Sulfate Heptahydrate (IS) as ionic sources. Experimental results indicate that the cationic and anionic ions in dissolving water induce the hydrolysis, degradation of cationic functional group and uncoiling of polymeric flocculants, therefore, the flocculation efficiency decreased by undesired polymer. According that result, it is important to estimate not only its structures and physical properties but also the qualities of dissolving water to optimize the efficiency.

We have prepared siloxane polymers grafted with trifluoromethane-sulfonylamide and oligoether side chains for solid polymer electrolytes with enhanced ionic conductivity. The grafted trifluoromethane sulfonylamide groups seem to be effective as an anion recepting site to enhance the ionic conductivity of the solid polymer electrolyte. The anion receptor grafted siloxane polymers showed one order of magnitude higher ionic conductivity than the siloxane polymers without anion receptor grafts. The fitting parameter A of the VTF plot which was related to the carrier density of the electrolyte increased with increasing the number of grafted anion receptor. The results of experiment indicate that the anion-complexing site of the anion receptor grafted polymer host effectively traps the anions. The anion receptor grafted polymer was found to be a promising material for lithium polymer batteries.

The integration of bioelectronic devices with the skin is a promising strategy for personalized healthcare monitoring and diagnostics. On-skin bioelectrodes hold great potential for the real-time tracking of physiological parameters. However, persistent challenges of stability and reliability have instigated exploration beyond conventional noble metals. This study focuses on the ionic passivation and oxidation dynamics of copper-based on-skin thin-film bioelectrodes. Through parylene chemical vapor deposition, we harness a controlled thin film of parylene insulation to counter the intrinsic susceptibility of copper to oxidation in the ionic environment. The results represent the relationship among the parylene insulation thickness, copper oxidation, and electrode impedance over temporal intervals. Comparative analyses indicate that the short-term stability of the copper electrode is comparable to that of the gold electrode. Therefore, we propose a cost-effective strategy for fabricating copper-based on-skin bioelectrodes by introducing enhanced ionic stability within a discernible operational timeframe. This study enriches our understanding of on-skin bioelectronics and affordable material choices for practical use in wearable healthcare devices.

For decreasing the level of fluoride content in Antarctic krill, the changes of the content in solubel protein from the krill muscle depended on pH, ion species and ionic strength of the extracting solutions were investigated. The content of total fluoride of boiled muscle was higher than that of raw material, and the portions of fluoride with ionic form to the total content were 70% and 49%, respectively. In the effect of pH, fluoride contents of soluble protein from raw and boiled muscle showed the lowest values near 10. The effective ionic strength for decrease of fluoride content was 0.05M as NaCl at pH 11, and the content in the protein from raw material in this conditions was about 8 ppm.

The detection technique both the polarization and the mobile charge density at the same time in ferroelectric films on Si using TVS method have been proposed. This method yields a polarizable and an ionic displacement current peaks whose areas are proportional to the total polarization reversal charge and the total moble ionic space charge, respectively. The calculated polarization and the mobile charge density were 0.42 [$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$] and 5.5$\times$10$^{11}$ (ions/$\textrm{cm}^2$) in the SBT film of MFIS structure measured at 25$0^{\circ}C$, and 1.4 [$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$] in the LiNbO$_3$ film of MFS structure measured at 30$0^{\circ}C$, respectively.

In this work, effects of plasma on different hardness of welding steel using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy were investigated. The ratios of ionic to atomic spectrum peaks were related to its material hardness. The major spectrum peak (Fe) and minor spectrum peak (Mn) were considered as monitoring elements. The stronger repulse plasma was generated, the harder material it was. The ratios of ionic to atomic spectrum peaks increased with respect to the material hardness as well. The correlation of minor spectrum peaks was stronger than that of major spectrum peaks. However, the major spectrum peaks indicated a similar trend, which could be used to estimate the hardness, too. Based on this result, the method could be used as a non-contact remote measurement of material properties.

1,1-Dialkyl-2,5-bis(trimethylsilylethynyl)-3,4-diphenylsiloles (R=Et, i-Pr, n-Hex; 3a-c) were prepared and utilized as anode active materials for lithium-ion batteries; 3a was also used as a filler for the solid-state electrolytes (SSE). Siloles 3a-c were prepared by substitution reactions in which the two bromine groups of 1,1-dialkyl-2,5-dibromo-3,4-diphe- nylsiloles, used as precursors, were substituted with trimethylsilylacetylene in the presence of palladium chloride, copper iodide, and triphenylphosphine in diisopropylamine. Among siloles 3a-c, 3a had the best electrochemical properties as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries, including an initial capacity of 758 mAhg^-1 (0.1 A/g), which was reduced to 547 mAhg^-1 and then increased to 1,225 mAhg^-1 at 500 cycles. A 3a-composite polymer electrolyte (3a-CPE) was prepared using silole 3a as an additive at concentrations of 1, 2, 3, and 4 wt.%. The 2 wt.% 3a-CPE composite afforded an excellent ionic conductivity of 1.09 × 10^-3 Scm^-1 at 60℃, indicating that silole 3a has potential applicability as an anode active material for lithium-ion batteries, and can also be used as an additive for the SSE of lithium-ion batteries.
