On the basis of a simple modified Poisson-Boltzmann (SMPB) theory, taking into account the finite ionic size, the analytic expression for the effect of ionic size on the diffuse layer potential drop at negative charge densities has been given for the simple 1:1 electrolyte. It is shown that the potential drop across the diffuse layer depends on the size of the ions in the electrolyte. For a given electrolyte concentration and electrode charge density, the diffuse layer potential drop in a small ion system is smaller than that in a large ion system. It is also displayed that the diffuse layer potential drop is always less than the value of the Gouy-Chapman (GC) theory, and the deviation increases as the electrode charge density increases for a given electrolyte concentration. These theoretical results are consistent with the results of the Monte-Carlo simulation [Fawcett and Smagala, Electrochimica Acta 53, 5136 (2008)], which indicates the importance of including steric effects in modeling diffuse layer properties.

Air pollution potentials of the 7 cities in the central part of Korea were obtained with the mean wind speed within the mixed layer and the mixed layer height calculated by the Jump Model. Seasonal variation of the afternoon mixed layer height in Seoul area shows that low in winter and high in summer. Annual mean of the morning air pollution potential was lowest in Incheon and highest in Wonju. On the other hand annual mean of the afternoon air pollution potential was lowest in Incheon and highest in Chuncheon. Relatively low air pollution potential in Incheon can be explained as high mixed layer height and the effect of sea breeze.

The stability and electrochemical properties of a self-assembled layer of spinach ferredoxin on a quartz substrate and on a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite electrode were investigated. To fabricate the ferredoxin self-assembly layer, dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine was first deposited onto a substrate for ferredoxin immobilization. Surface analysis of the ferredoxin layer was carried out by atomic force microscopy to verify the ferredoxin immobilization. To verify ferredoxin immobilization on the lipid layer and to confirm the maintenance of redox activity, absorption spectrum measurement was carried out. Finally, cyclic-voltammetry measurements were performed on the ferredoxin layers and the redox potentials were obtained. The redox potential of immobilized ferredoxin had a formal potential value of -540 mV. It is suggested that the redox-potential measurement of self-assembled ferredoxin molecules could be used to construct a biosensor and biodevice.

A complete potential profile of an electrical double layer is calculated from a distribution function of charged particles based upon a model where the effect of a charged electrode and the finite size of ion are explicitly included. Electrons which are distributed on the electrode surface are assumed not to penetrate the electrode/electrolyte boundary. Formation of the constant density regions and their effects on potential and the electrical double layer capacitances are studied in great detail. The distribution of surface electrons as well as the constant density regions are found to be essential in characterizing the electrical double layer. The introduction of the ion size into the prior electrical double layer model of an ideally polarizable electrode/point charged electrolyte system, shows a great improvement in its characteristics mostly at negative potential region.

The low level atmospheric obsewation carried out to Investigate magnitude, formation and dissipation of nocturnal surface Inversion layer, also to survey relation to each meterological parameter In Inversion layer at Pusan power plant for Oct. 13, 1996. As coastal area, the surface Inversion layer height was relatively high(186m), and after sunset unstable layer formated firom surface to around 40m, and the Inversion layer was left still in the upper layer. The surface Inversion layer dissipated at 0920LST perfectly. The layer that strong Inversion layer was formated, showed steep variation of potential temperature and wand speed and relative humidity.

In this study, ground calcium carbonate (GCC) was modified by Layer-by-Layer (LbL) multilayering with polyelectrolytes. Cationic polyacrylamide (C-PAM) and poly sodium 4-styrene sulfonate (PSS) were used as cationic and anionic polyelectrolytes to modify GCC. The characteristics of the modified GCC were examined in terms of zeta potential and particle size with the addition level of polyelectrolyte and layer number. The GCC could form an assembly of cationic and anionic polyelectrolytes through consecutive adsorption process. The zeta potential of the modified GCC moved toward the cationicity and reached the plateau with the increase of the addition level of C-PAM. With layering of anionic PSS, the GCC had the negative charge. The particle size was dependent on the zeta potential. It was also observed by optical microscope. As the PSS was in the presence of the outermost layer, the GCC showed the better dispersability. It indicated that the surface charge and particle size can be controlled by adjusting the addition level of polyelectrolyte and the layer number.

포텐셜와도는 해류의 순환을 설명하는데 유용하게 활용된다. 동해에서 포텐셜와도의 분포 특성을 이용하여 쓰시마난류를 포함한 상층부의 해류순환을 설명하였다. 상층부를 표층부분과 쓰시마난류의 분포 층 그리고 수온약층 분포 수층으로 구분하였다. 극전선남쪽은 쓰시마난류가 해류순환의 중심을 형성하며, 포텐셜와도는 쓰시마난류와 극전선의 분포 특성을 잘 나타내어준다. 포텐셜와도의 분포로부터, 극전선 북쪽은 일본 분지와 그 서쪽해역의 순환 세포로 구분된다.

In this paper, a theoretical method has been developed for the electric double layer interaction under condition of the variable dielectric permittivity of water. Using Poisson-Boltzmann equation (PBE), for one plate and two plates having similar or dissimilar constant charge or constant potential, we have investigated the electric double layer potential, its gradient and the disjoining pressure as well as the effect of variation of dielectric permittivity on these parameters. It has been assumed that plates are separated by a specific distance and contain a liquid solution in between. It is shown that reduction of the dielectric permittivity near the interfaces results in compression of electric double layers and affects the potential and its gradient which leads to a decreased electrostatic repulsion. In addition, it is shown that variation of dielectric permittivity in the case of higher electrolyte concentration, leads to a greater change in potential distribution between two plates.

하전된 마이크로채널의 전기이중층에서 계면동전기 흐름에 의해 발생되는 흐름전위는 일반적 Helmholtz-Smoluchowski 관계식으로부터 중공사 멤브레인 기공의 제타전위를 결정하는데 적용된다. 흐름전위는 실제 운전상황이나 물리화학적 조건에서의 표면특성 및 기공과 입자간 상호작용에 대한 유용한 실시간 정보를 제공함이 알려져 있다. 무리화학적 인자들이 주공사에 의한 여과에 미치는 영향을 투과플럭스와 흐름전위의 동시적 모니터링으로 고찰하였다. 특히, 본 연구에서는 중공사의 위치에 따른 흐름전위를 측정함으로써 중공사 길이 방향과 멤부레인 오염 진행에 따라 달라지는 케이크층 효과를 규명하는 실험방법을 다루었다. 실험결과, 입자농도가 증가할수록 투과플럭스는 감소하나 흐름전위는 증가하였다. 입자농도가 증가하면서 케이크층 성장은 활발하지만 쌓인 하전 입자들의 표면전하 효과로 흐름전위는 증가한 것이다. 용액의 이온화 세기를 KCI 0.1 mM에서 10mM로 증가하면 투과플럭스와 흐름전위가 함께 감소하였다. 이는, 이온화 세기의 증가로 라텍스입자 주위의 Debye 길이 감소로 치밀한 케이크층이 형성되고, 전기이중층의 얇아진 확산층에 의한 이온흐름의 약화로 흐름전위는 감소한 것을 판단된다.

The corrosion of pure titanium (CP- Ti Grade 2) and titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V ELI) were studied under various conditions of simulated body fluids. The static immersion test and the electrochemical test were performed in accordance with ISO 10271 : 2001. For the electrochemical test, the open circuit potential was monitored as a function of time, and the cyclic polarization curve was recorded. The corrosion resistance was evaluated from the values of corrosion potential, passivation current density, breakdown potential, and the shape of hysteresis etc. The effects of alloy type, surface condition, temperature, oxygen, and constituents in the fluids such as acid, chloride were estimated. Both specimens had extremely low dissolution rate in the static immersion test. They showed strong passivation characteristics in the electrochemical test. They maintained negligible current density throughout the wide anodic potential range. The passive layer was not broken up to 2.0 V (vs. SCE). The hysteresis and the shift of passivation potential toward the anodic direction was observed during the reversed scan. The passivation process appeared to be accelerated by oxygen in air or that dissolved in the fluids. The passivation also proceeded without oxygen by the reaction of constituents in the fluids. Acid or chloride in the fluids, specially later weakened the passive layer, and then induced higher passivation current density and less shift of passivation potential in the reversed scan. CP-Ti Grade 2 was more reactive than Ti6Al4V ELI in the fluids containing acid or chloride, but thicker layer produced on its surface provided higher corrosion resistance.
