본 연구에서는 스테인리스강을 사용하여 전형적인 3-전극 시스템의 순환전류전압법으로 트리 에탄올아민(TEA) 용액 중에서 전류-전압 곡선을 측정하였다. 스테인리스강은 작업 전극으로, Ag/AgCl 전극은 기준 전극으로, 그리고 백금 선은 상대 전극으로 각각 사용하였고, 그 결과, 트리에탄올아민 용액에서의 스테인리스강의 C-V 특성은 순환전류전압법으로부터 산화전류에 기인한 비가역 공정으로 나타났다. 부식억제제의 확산계수의 효과는 농도 증가에 따라 감소하였다. 그리고 부식억제 효과는 농도 0.5 N의 $NaClO_4$, $2.5{\times}10^{-3}M$ TEA용액에서 가장 컸으며, 1.5 N $NaClO_4$, $1.0{\times}10^{-3}M$ TEA용액에서 가장 낮았다.

Reinforced concrete structures have been increasingly widely used in numerous industrial fields. These structures are often exposed to severely corrosive environments such as seawater, contaminated water, acid rain, and the seashore. Thus, the corrosion problems that occur with the steel bars embedded in concrete are very important from the safety and economic points of view. In this study, the effects of the cover thickness on the corrosion properties of reinforced steel bars embedded in multiple mortar test specimens immersed in seawater for 5 years were investigated using electrochemical methods such as the corrosion potentials, polarization curves, cyclic voltammograms, galvanostat, and potentiostat. The corrosion potentials shifted in the noble direction, and the value of the AC impedance also exhibited a higher value with increasing cover thickness. Furthermore, the polarization resistance increased with increasing cover thickness, which means that the oxide film that is deposited on the surface of a steel bar surrounded by alkali environment exhibits better corrosion resistance because the water, chloride ions and dissolved oxygen have difficulty penerating to the surface of the steel bar with increasing cover thickness. Consequently, it is considered that the corrosion resistance of reinforced steel can be improved by increasing the cover thickness. However, the corrosion resistance values of a steel bar estimated by measuring the corrosion potential, impedance and polarization resistance were not in good agreement with its corrosion resistance obtained by polarization curves.

본 논문에서는 H1N1 인플루엔자 A 바이러스(influenza A H1N1 virus) 검출을 위한 산화아연 나노구조(zinc oxide nano structure) 기반의 전기화학적 면역센서를 제작하고 그 특성을 분석하였다. H1N1 인플루엔자 A 바이러스는 빠른 전파 속도 때문에 정확하고 빠른 검출이 필요하다. 먼저, 2 $mm^2$의 표면적을 갖는 패턴된 금 전극 위에 열수방식(hydrothermal method)으로 성장시킨 산화아연 나노구조가 선택적으로 형성되도록 리프트-오프(lift-off) 방법을 사용하였다. 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline(pH 7.4)에서 2 ${\mu}g$/mL 농도의 1차 항체를 정전기력에 의해 산화아연 나노구조에 고정화한 후, 10 pg/mL ~ 5ng/mL 농도의 H1N1 항원을 적용하여 포획 항체에 결합시키고 HRP(horseradish peroxidase) 효소가 결합된 검출 항체를 항원에 결합시키는 샌드위치 ELISA법을 이용하였다. HRP와 반응하는 TMB(3,3', 5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine)와 과산화수소가 포함된 acetate buffered 용액(pH 5)을 전해질로 사용하고 순환전압전류 측정법(cyclic voltammetry)으로 센서의 특성을 분석하였다. 측정된 순환전압전류그래프(cyclic voltammogram)에서 H1N1 항원 농도 10 pg/mL ~ 5 ng/mL의 응답 전류는 276.47 ${\pm}$ 21.72 nA (평균 ${\pm}$ 표준편차, n=4) ~ 478.89 ${\pm}$ 6.21 nA로 측정되었고, logarithmic하게 증가하는 응답 전류 특성을 보였다.

Ni-Cd 전지 중 카드뮴 전극을 수산화 칼륨용액 중에서 각종 조건의 변화에 따른 cyclic voltammetry를 행하여 카드뮴전극의 전기화학적 거동을 검토하였으며 voltammogram에 나타나는 peak전위 근처의 각 전위에서 정전위 전해를 하여 충, 방전상태의 전기화학적 거동을 X-선 회절선도의 해석 결과와 결부시켜 전극반응 메카니즘을 종합적으로 검토하였다. 수산화카드뮴 마이너스 전극의 음극분극 곡선에는 두 개의 peak가 나타난다. 마이너스극의 수산화카드뮴은 제 1 peak 전위에서 카드뮴 금속으로 환원되고 제 2 peak 전위에 도달하면 매우 활성이 큰 금속 상태로 되며 (002)면이 (101)면보다 성장이 매우 크다. 또한 제 2 peak 전위의 카드뮴은 산소와의 선택적인 반응이 급속히 일어남을 알 수 있었다. 본 실험의 결과 카드뮴극과 산소와의 반응은 화학적 반응인 $2Cd + O_2 + 2H_2O\;{\longrightarrow}\;2Cd(OH)_2$으로 진행된다고 추정하였다.

The purpose of this study Is to research and develop $V_{6}O_{13}$ composite cathode for lithium thin film battery. $V_{6}O_{13}$ represents a class of cathode active material used in Li rechargeable batteries. In this study, we investigated cyclic voltammetry and charge/discharge characteristics of $V_6O_{13}$/SPE/Li cells. Cyclic voltammogram of $V_{6}O_{13}$/SPE/Li cell at scan rate 1mV/sec showed reduction peaks of 2.25V and 2.4V and oxidation peaks of 2.4V and 2.2V. The discharge curve of $V_{6}O_{13}$/SPE/Li cell showed 4 potential plateaus. The discharge capacity was decreased in the beginning of charge/discharge cycling. After 8th cycling, the discharge capacity was stable. The discharge capacity of 1st cycle and 15th cycle was 290mAh/g and 147mAh/g at $25^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Carbon nanofiber electrode has been fabricated for energy storage systems by the electrospinning of SU-8 precursor and subsequent pyrolysis. Various parameters including the applied voltage, the distance between syringe tip and target collector and the flow rate of the polymer affect the diameter of SU-8 electrospun nanofibers. Shrinkage during pyrolysis decreases the fiber diameter. As the pyrolysis temperature increases, the resistivity decreases dramatically. Low resistivity is one of the important characteristics of the electrodes of an energy storage device. Given the advantages of carbon nanofibers having high external surface area, electrical conductivity, and lithium intercalation ability, SU-8 derived carbon nanofibers were applied to the anode of a full lithium ion cell. In this paper, we studied the physical properties of carbon fiber electrode by scanning transmission microscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and four-point probe. The electrochemical characteristics of the electrode were investigated by cyclic voltammogram and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy plots.

Mesoporous tinoxide ($SnO_2$) as anode materials for Li-ion battery were prepared by hydrothermal method and templating method using SBA-15 as template. And electrochemical properties of $SnO_2$ electrode were investigated with cyclic voltammogram (CV). The morphology and structures of $SnO_2$ were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffractometer (XRD), respectively. The specific surface area was defined by $N_2$ adsorption with BET(Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) method. As a result, the surface area of mesoporous $SnO_2$ which was made from templating method is higher than the case of using hydrothermal method. In addition, in anodic performance, mesoporous $SnO_2$ which is prepared by templating method showed higher charge-discharge capasity compared to hydrothermal method and exhibited excellent stability over the entire cycle number. It was indicated that electrochemical performances of mesoporous $SnO_2$mainly affected to the structural features, such as specific surface area and porosity.

In this study, nano-crystallized $Al_2O_3$ was coated on the surface of $LiFePO_4$ powders via a novel dry coating method. The influence of coated $LiFePO_4$ upon electrochemical behavior was discussed. Surface morphology characterization was achieved by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), clearly showing nano-crystallized $Al_2O_3$ on $LiFePO_4$ surfaces. Furthermore, it revealed that the $Al_2O_3$-coated $LiFePO_4$ cathode exhibited a distinct surface morphology. It was also found that the $Al_2O_3$ coating reduces capacity fading especially at high charge/discharge rates. Results from the cyclic voltammogram measurements (2.5-4.2 V) showed a significant decrease in both interfacial resistance and cathode polarization. This behavior implies that $Al_2O_3$ can prevent structural change of $LiFePO_4$ or reaction with the electrolyte on cycling. In addition, the $Al_2O_3$ coated $LiFePO_4$ compound showed highly improved area-specific impedance (ASI), an important measure of battery performance. From the correlation between these characteristics of bare and coated $LiFePO_4$, the role of $Al_2O_3$ coating played on the electrochemical performance of $LiFePO_4$ was probed.

In the present study, we suggest a new way to reactivate performance of direct formic acid fuel cell (DFAFC) and explain its mechanism by employing electrochemical analyses like chronoamperometry (CA) and cyclic voltammogram (CV). For the evaluation of DFAFC performance, palladium (Pd) and platinum (Pt) are used as anode and cathode catalysts, respectively, and are applied to a Nafion membrane by catalyst-coated membrane spraying. After long DFAFC operation performed at 0.2 and 0.4 V and then CV test, DFAFC performance is better than its initial performance. It is attributed to dissolution of anode Pd into $Pd^{2+}$. By characterizations like TEM, Z-potential, CV and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, it is evaluated that such dissolved $Pd^{2+}$ ions lead to (1) increase in the electrochemically active surface by reduction in Pd particle size and its improved redistribution and (2) increment in the total oxidation charge by fast reaction rate of the Pd dissolution reaction.

순환 전압-전류 그림에서 루비안산의 전기화학적 행동을 조사해 보면, 루비안산은 두 개의 환원 봉우리가 나타나는데, 첫번째 봉우리는 $S^{2-}$ 봉우리와 일치하므로 HgS 생성에 의한 환원 봉우리이며, 두번째 봉우리는 매우 약하며 확인되지 않았다. 시차 펄스 음극 벗김 전압-전류법으로 미량의 루비안산을 정량하는 방법을 고찰하였다. 루비안산의 정량을 위하여 pH 10.0, 붕산염 완충용액을 사용하였고, 최적 조건은 붕산염 완충용액의 농도 0.05M, 축적전위 -0.30V, 축적시간 120초, 그리고 주사속도 10mV/sec이다. 이 때 루비안산의 검출 한계는 $2.7{\times}10^{-8}M$이다.
