LSM is widely used as a cathode material in SOFC, because of its high electrochemical activity, good stability and compatibility with YSZ electrolyte at high temperature. However, LSM in traditional cathode materials will not generate a satisfactory performance at intermediate temperature. In order to reduce the polarization resistance of cell with the operating temperature of SOFC system, the cathode material of LSCF is one of the most suitable electrode materials because of its high mixed ionic and electronic conductivity. In this report, cathode material, $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_3$ powder for intermediate temperature SOFC was synthesized by Pechini method using the starting materials such as nitrate of La, Sr, Co and Fe including ethylene glycol, etc. As a result, the synthesized powder that calcined above $700^{\circ}C$ exhibits successfully perovskite structure, indicating phase-pure of LSCF. Moreover, the particle size, surface area, crystal structure and morphology of the synthesized oxide powders were characterized by SEM, XRD, and BET, etc. In order to evaluate the electrochemical performance for the synthesized powder, slury mixture using the synthesized cathode material was coated by screen-printing process on the anode-supported electrolyte which was prepared by a tape casting method and co-sintering. Finally, electrochemical studies of the SOFC unit cell, including measurements such as power density and impedance, were performed.

개질가스를 일반적으로 사용하는 정치용 PEMFC에 순수 수소를 공급했을 때 그 특성을 차량용 막과 전극 합체(MEA)와 비교하였다. 수소 공급량을 변화시키며 anode에서 수소공급량이 전체 성능에 미치는 영향을 비교하였다. 수소를 1.0~1.7 과잉(stoi.)범위에서 공급량을 변화시켰을 때 정치용이나 차량용 모두 OCV에 미치는 영향은 거의 없었다. 0.7 V에서 정치용 MEA의 전류밀도는 차량용보다 약 16% 높았다. 그리고 상대습도를 변화시키며 I-V 성능, 임피던스, LSV를 측정하였다. 상대습도 증가에 따라 OCV와 전해질 막 저항이 모두 감소하였다. 정치용 MEA의 수소투과도가 차량용보다 더 낮아 정치용 MEA의 전해질 막의 내구성이 차량용보다 더 높을 수 있음을 보였다.

PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to evaluate the corrosion resistance of the specimens produced by five different commercial metal laser sintering (MLS) systems with their recommended Co-Cr alloy powders. MATERIALS AND METHODS. The MLS machines and the alloy powders used were, ProX 100-ST2724G (St-Pro), Mysint 100-EOS SP2 (SP2-Mys), EOSINT 270-EOS SP2 (SP2-EOS), SLM 100-Starbond CoS (SB-SLM), and MLab Cusing-Remanium^® Star (RS-MLab), respectively. Eight specimens from each group were prepared. Open circuit potential (E_ocp) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements of polished surfaces of the specimens were conducted in a three-electrode cell using a potentiostat-galvanostat in Fusayama-Meyer artificial saliva (AS). Specimens from each group were immersed in AS and de-ionized water for seven days. E_ocp, charge transfer resistance (R_ct) values, and released ions (㎍/㎠ × 7d) in different solutions were determined. The specimen surfaces were observed with SEM/EDS. Results were analyzed statistically. RESULTS. E_ocp values have shifted to potentials that are more positive over time. Steady-state E_ocp values were from high to low as follows, SB-SLM, SP2-Mys, SP2-EOS, RS-MLab, and ST-Pro, respectively. After 60 mins, RS-MLab specimens had the highest R_ct value, followed by SP2-Mys, SB-SLM, SP2-EOS, and ST-Pro. In all groups, ion release was higher in AS than that in de-ionized water. CONCLUSION. There were small differences among the corrosion resistances of the Co-Cr alloy specimens produced with MLS systems; meanwhile, the corrosion resistances were quite high for all specimens.

리튬이차전지 음극활물질로 사용되는 합성흑연입자에 여러종류금속을 코팅하여 그 전기화학적특성을 조사하였으며, 구체적인 코팅방법으로는 가스분산스프레이 코팅법을 적용하였다. 본 연구범위내에서 금속을 코팅한 입자로 제조된 전극은 충방전시 형성되는 계면저항을 감소시킴으로서 결과적으로 원시료에 비해서 높은 방전용량을 나타내었다. CV실험을 통해서 은과 주석은 리튬과의 합금반응을 확인할 수 있었으나, 2.5 중량$\%$ 이하의 낮은 코팅량을 고려했을 때, 높은 분산도를 지닌 금속 물질의 코팅을 통한 전극 활물질 표면의 균일한 전도도의 증가가 주요원인인 것으로 사료되었다. 단일계 금속으로 코팅하였을 경우 은코팅한 전극활물질이 가장 높은 방전용량과 사이클특성을 나타내었고, 은을 기본으로 하는 이성분계에서는 은-니켈전극이 가장 높은 고율특성을 나타내었다.

본 연구에서는 리튬 이차 전지의 양극 재료인 $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}]O_2$을 공침법(co-precipitation)을 활용하여 성공적으로 합성하였다. 이때 $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}]O_2$의 금속염 농도를 실험 변수로 하여 합성 조건을 변화 시키면서 금속염 농도 변화로 인한 전지 특성의 영향을 분석하였다. SEM(scanning electron microscope)과 XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) 분석결과 금속염의 농도(2몰/L)가 높을 경우 분말의 균일성과 구조의 결정성이 떨어져 전지 특성이 저하되는 현상이 발생하였다. 균일성과 결정성을 향상시키기 위하여 금속염의 농도(1몰/L)를 줄여 합성 한 결과 입도의 미분이 적고 균일성이 및 구조적 결정성이 증가됨을 확인하였다. 또한 충/방전 용량, C-rate, 사이클 등 전기화학적 특성에서도 상대적으로 우수한 특성을 보였다. 이러한 측정 결과를 바탕으로 $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}]O_2$ 물질의 금속염 농도에 따른 영향을 종합적으로 고찰하였다.

Dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) is a promising alternative solar cell to the conventional silicon solar cell due to several advantages. Development of large scale module is necessary to commercialize the DSC in the near future. A scribing technology of the transparent conductive oxide (TCO) is one of the important technologies on the fabrication of DSC module. A quality of the scribed line on the TCO has a decisive effect on the efficiency of DSC module. Among several scribing technologies, the fiber laser is a suitable for scribing the TCO more precisely and accurately because of their own characteristics. In this study, we try to improve the quality of the TCO scribed line by using the fiber laser. Consequently, the operating parameter of fiber laser is optimized to get the TCO scribed line with good quality. And the fiber laser scribing technology of the TCO is applied to the fabrication of the DSC with optimal operating parameter, operating current 3900mA. As a result, the current density and fill factor are improved and the total efficiency is increased because the internal resistances of DSC such as TCO sheet resistance and the resistance concerned to the electron movement in the $TiO_2$ are reduced. This is analyzed by the electrochemistry impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and the equivalent circuit model of the DSC.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between dietary fat intake, anthropometric data, blood lipids, C-reactive protein, and adiponectin in Korean male college students. Forty-eight subjects were divided into 2 groups based on dietary fat intake: UERF (under 30% of energy ratio for fat source), AERF (above 30% of energy ratio for fat souce). We collected dietary intake data using 24-hour dietary recall for 3 days. Anthropometric and biochemical parameters were measured by using standard methods. Segmental body composition analysis was carried out using an 8-electrode multifrequency bioelectrical impedance method of body fat estimation. There was no significant difference in anthropometric data and serum lipid profile between UERF and AERF group. Serum C-reactive protein level was significantly higher in the AERF group compared to the UERF group. Although there was no significant difference in serum adiponectin level between UERF and AERF groups, subjects had lower adiponectin levels. Correlation data show that serum adiponectin level was positively correlated with vegetable intake (p < 0.05). In addition, dietary fat intake had a positive correlation with meat (p < 0.01), whereas a negative correlation with grain (p < 0.01), vegetables (p < 0.05), and fish (p < 0.05). These results suggest that the increased fat intake of non-obese Korean male college students is associated with their increased serum C-reactive protein concentration. Therefore, proper guidelines on fat intake and nutrition education are necessary for the prevention and management of metabolic syndromes.

Recently, there has been an increasing interest in the use of graphene as electrode materials for supercapacitors. In this regard, graphene oxide (GO) films were prepared using GO slurry obtained by dispersing GO powder in deionized (DI) water. The degree of dispersion of GO powder in DI water depends on the concentration of GO slurry, pH, impurity content, GO particle size, types of functional groups contained in GO, and manufacturing method of GO powder. In this study, the dispersivity of the GO powder was improved by adjusting the pH using only DI water (without additives), and a uniform GO film was obtained. The GO film was reduced by exposure to xenon intense pulsed light for a few milliseconds, and the reduced GO film was used as electrodes of a supercapacitor. The supercapacitor was characterized using cyclic voltammetry (CV), charge-discharge cycle, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements, and the specific capacitance of the supercapacitor was found to be ~140 F/g from the CV data.

As the stainless steel has good corrosion resistance, mechanical property and ease of manufacture, it has been studied as the candidate material of metallic bipolar plate for automotive PIMFC. But, metal is dissolved under fuel cell operating conditions Dissolved ions contaminate a membrane electrode assembly (MEA) and, decrease the fuel cell performance. In addition, metal oxide formation on the surface of stainless steel increases the contact resistance in the fuel cell. These problems have been acted as an obstacle in the application of stainless steel to bipolar plate. Therefore, many kinds of coating technologies have been examined in order to solve these problems. In this study, stainless steel was coated in order to achieve high conductivity and corrosion resistance by several methods. Contact resistance was measured by using a tensile tester and impedance analyzer Corrosion characteristics of coated stainless steel were examined by Tafel-extrapolation method from the polarization curves in a solution simulating the anodic and cathodic environment of PEMFC. Fuel cell performance was also evaluated by single cell test. We tested various coated metal bipolar plate and conventional and graphite were also tested as comparative samples. In the result, coated stainless steel bipolar plate exhibited better cell performance than graphite to bipolar plate.
