새로운 전자 기기들이 등장함에 따라 시판되고 있는 리튬 이온 배터리 (lithium ion battery, LIB)는 다양한 문제에 직면해 있으며, 이와 관련하여 많은 해결 노력들이 시도되어 왔다. 차세대 이차 전지의 개발이라는 관점에서 LIB의 문제들을 해결하기 위해, 우리는 mesoporous carbon based on waste biomass (MCWB) 와 Polypyrrole (PPY) hydrogel과 같은 두 가지 종류의 촉매를 성공적으로 개발하였다. MCWB와 PPY hydrogel 촉매들은 전형적인 H3 타입 BET isotherm을 나타내었으며, 이는 micropore와 mseopore가 존재한다는 증거이다. 특히 PPY hydrogel을 기반으로 하는 해수 전지(seawater battery, SWB)의 경우, galvanostatic charge-discharge 시험에서 voltage efficiency성능은 MCWB를 적용한 battery보다 높았지만 Pt/C를 적용한 battery보다는 낮았다. 더욱 흥미롭게도, PPY hydrogel 기반의 SWB는 20 사이클(480hrs) 동안 우수한 가역적인 충/방전 특성을 나타내었으며, voltage efficiency성능은 70.32%에서 77.35% 범위의 우수한 특성을 나타내었다. 상기 연구 결과는 차세대 이차 전지를 위한 비귀금속 촉매 개발에 기여하는 결과라고 사료된다.

고밀도 폴리에틸렌(HDPE)과 초고분자량 폴리에틸렌(UHMWPE)을 블렌딩한 고분자 구조를 갖는 리튬이온 2차 전지용 습식 separator를 제조하였으며, 그들의 고분자 블렌딩 및 연신 조건이 제반물성에 미치는 영향에 관해서 고찰하였다. Separator의 기계적 강도는 UHMWPE의 분자량 및 함량이 증가함에 따라 크게 향상되었으며, UHMWPE의 함량이 6 wt%이며 5배 연신 필름에서 약 $1000 kg/\textrm{cm}^2$의 기계적 강도를 보이며 제막성 또한 우수한 것으로 나타났다. Separator의 기공구조는 0.1~0.12 $\mu\textrm{m}$로 균일성을 보였으며, shut-down특성은 130 $^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 급격히 상승하여 $160^{\circ}C$에서 용융되는 것으로 나타났고 따라서 리튬이온 2차전지에 적용 가능한 것으로 평가되었다.

There are rising demands for developing more efficient energy materials to stem the depletion of fossil fuels, which have prompted significant research efforts on proton exchange fuel cells (PEFCs) and lithium ion batteries (LIBs). To date, both PEFCs and LIBs are being widely developed to power small electronics, however, their utilization to medium-large sized electric power resources such as vehicle and stationary energy storage systems still appears distant. These technologies increasingly rely upon polymer electrolyte membranes (PEMs) that transport ions from the anode to the cathode to balance the flow of electrons in an external circuit, and therefore play a central role in determining the efficiency of the devices; as ion transport is a kinetic bottleneck compared to electrical conductivity, enormous efforts have been devoted to improving the transport properties of PEMs. In present study, we carried out an in-depth analysis of the morphology effects on transport properties of PEMs. How parameters such as self-assembled nanostructures, domain sizes, and domain orientations affect conductivities of PEMs will be presented.

This paper presents a simple and cost-effective stand-alone rapid battery charging system of 30kW for electric vehicles. The proposed system mainly consists of active front-end rectifier of neutral point clamped 3-level type and non-isolated bi-directional dc-dc converter of multi-phase interleaved half-bridge topology. The charging system is designed to operate for both lithium-polymer and lithium-ion batteries. The complete charging sequence is made up of three sub-interval operating modes; pre-charge mode, constant-current mode, and constant-voltage mode. The pre-charge mode employs the stair-case shaped current profile to accomplish shorter charging time while maintaining the reliable operation of the battery. The proposed system is specified to reach the full-charge state within less than 16min for the battery capacity of 8kWh by supplying the charging current of 78A. Owing to the simple and compact power conversion scheme, the proposed solution has superior module-friendly mechanical structure which is absolutely required to realize flexible power expansion capability in a very high-current rapid charging system.

A new cathode material based on Li$Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}O_2$ (LNCA)/polyaniline (Pani) composite was prepared by in situ self-stabilized dispersion polymerization in the presence of LNCA. The materials were characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Electrochemical properties including galvanostatic charge-discharge ability, cyclic voltammetry (CV), capacity, cycling performance, and AC impedance were measured. The synthesized LNCA/Pani had a similar particle size to LNCA and exhibited good electrochemical properties at a high C rate. Pani (the emeraldine salt form) interacts with metal-oxide particles to generate good connectivity. This material shows good reversibility for Li insertion in discharge cycles when used as the electrode of lithium ion batteries. Therefore, the Pani coating is beneficial for stabilizing the structure and reducing the resistance of the LNCA. In particular, the LNCA/Pani material has advantageous electrochemical properties.

1991년 lithium-ion battery(LIB)가 상용화된 이후, 초기 전해질은 주로 lithium cobalt oxide($LiCoO_2$) 양극과 graphite 음극의 특성에 집중되어 연구되어 왔다. 또한 전극과 전해질 간의 적합성에 대한 다양한 연구들이 이들 간의 계면에서 활발히 진행되었다. 이후 Si, Sn 등의 비탄소계 음극소재와 3성분(Ni, Mn, Co)계, spinel, olivine 등의 양극 소재를 리튬 2차전지에 채용하려 함에 따라 기존 전해질 재료들도 많은 도전에 직면하게 되었다. 특히, 안전성 문제가 최근 심각하게 부각됨에 따라 전해질의 요구특성은 점점 복잡해지고 까다로워지고 있다. 본 고에서는 이러한 전극소재 변화에 따른 전해질 소재의 다양한 변화와 그 특성에 대하여 구성요소 별로 연구 및 개발 동향을 정리하였다.

Pouch film is manufactured by laminating aluminum foil, polyamide film and polypropylene film with an adhesive or extrusion resin. However, a surface treatment is required for the aluminum because bonding does not occur easily between the aluminum foil and the polymer film. Thus, for this study, surface treatment experiments were performed in order to confirm the effect on adhesion strength. First, a variety of surface treatment solutions were coated on aluminum foil, and contact angle and surface morphology analysis was carried out for the surface-treated aluminum. For lamination of the surface-treated aluminum foil with polyamide film, a polyurethane base adhesive was prepared for the adhesive strength test specimens. The adhesive strength between the aluminum foil and the polyamide film of the resulting specimens was measured (UTM). With such an experiment, it was possible to evaluate the effect on adhesive strength of the various surface treatments.

리튬 이온 전지의 가스켓 재료로 사용되기 위해서는 내전해액성, 전기절연성, 낮은 압축 영구 줄음률, 비오염성, 내열성이 요구된다. Perfluoroalkoxy (PFA)보다 압축 영구 줄음률이 우수한 고무의 적합성을 평가하기 위하여 Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM), Nitrile Butadiene(NBR), Fluoro Elastomers(FKM), Methyl-Vinyl Silicone Rubber (VMQ), Fluorosilicone(FVMQ)을 이용하여 최적상태의 compound를 제작하고 특성을 살펴보았다. 시험편을 $80^{\circ}C$의 propylene carbonate액에 침적하여 경도 및 체적변화를 1,000시간까지 시간별로 측정하였다. EPDM과 VMQ가 내전해액성이 우수하였으며, 전기절연성에서도 체적저항 기준 $10^{10}{\Omega}cm$이상의 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 따라서, EPDM과 VMQ가 적절한 것으로 판단되었다.

The purpose of this study is to research and develop solid polymer electrolyte(SPE) for Li polymer battery. The temperature dependence of conductivity impedance spectroscopy and electrochemical properties of PDF/PAN electrolytes as a function of a mixed ratio were reported for PVDF/PAN based polymer electrolyte films which were prepared by thermal gellification method of preweighed PVDF/PAN plasticizer and Li salt. The conductivity of PVDF/PAN electrolytes was 10$\^$-3/S/cm. 20PVDF5PEN LiCiO$\_$4//PC$\_$10//EC$\_$10/ electrolyte has the better conductivity compared to others. 20PVDF5PANLICIO$\_$4//PC$\_$10//EC$\_$10/ electroylte remains stable up to 5V vs. Li/Li$\^$+/. Steady state current method and ac impedance were used for the determination of transference numbers in PVDF/PAN electrolyte film. The transference number of 20PVDF5PANLiCO$\^$4//PC$\_$10//EC$\_$10/ electrolyte is 0.48.
