Carbon films was grown on Si substrates using the method of electrolysis for methanol liquid. Deposition parameters for the growth of the carbon films were current density for the electrolysis. methanol liquid temperature and electrode spacing between anode and cathode. We examined electrical resistance and the surface morphology of carbon films formed under various conditions specified by deposition parameters. It was clarified that the high electrical resistance carbon films with smooth surface morphology are grown when a distance between the electrodes was relatively wider. We found that the electrical resistance in the films was independent of both current density and methanol liquid temperature for electrolysis. The temperature dependence of the electrical resistance in the low resistance carbon films was different from one obtained in graphite.

An attempt was made to characterize the relationship between pretreatment processes, electrolysis conditions and behaviors of the plated gold layer. In order to investigate the effect of pretreatment processes on plating, rest potential measurements of various pretreated stainless steels and a.c.-impedance spectroscopy tests were carried out in the strike plating solution. Characteristics of plated gold layers and adhesions between plated gold layers and stainless steel substrates were examined by scratching tests and micro-Vickers hardness tests. The result shows that the strike plating enhanced the adhesion of interface, the cathodic electro-activation pretreatment process improving both corrosion resistance and adhesion strength. The preferred orientations of plated gold layers were examined by the X-ray diffraction technique. As the current density increases, [111] preferred orientation of plated gold layers was found to become well developed.

Conventional hexavlent chromium electroplating baths deposit the matal at low cathode efficiency and have poor covering and throwing power. The processs also generate hazardous wastes. To overcome many of the disadvantages of hexavalent chromium plating the use of trivalent chromium has advocted. After Yoshida, who first studied trivalent chromium plating, using ammonium sulfate and urea, there are numerous report describing the trivalent chromium electropating process using complexing agents. This study investigaten trivalent chromium plating electrolyte solutious containing formate as a complexing agent and ammouim chloride for conducting agent. The effects of composition and operating conditions on deposits and current efficiencies were investigated in trivalent chromium plating baths by analyzing the relationship pulse conditions and surface morphology The surface morphology of the deposits was observed by SEM. pulse electrolysis has been effective on obtaining a smooth with high current efficiency comparing with D.C. electrolysis in trivalent chromium solution.

The molten salt electrolysis is applied to reduce titanium dioxide to titanium metal using calcium chloride as an electrolyte and the reaction mechanism of the reduction process is examined by analyzing the reaction products. The process conditions to obtain titanium metal for $900^{\circ}C$ correspond to 2.9~3.2 V and 24 hours. The reaction products for 2.9 V at $900^{\circ}C$ include irregular-shaped titanium oxides such as $Ti_4O_7$, $Ti_3O_5$ and $Ti_2O_3$ and polyhedral $CaTiO_3$. Using these microstructure analysis, the sequential reaction mechanism for the electrochemical reduction of titanium dioxide to titanium is proposed.

In this study, a concrete was prepared using an alkaline aqueous solution produced by electrolyzing potassium carbonate in order to improve the low initial strength of concrete using blast furnace slag. In order to confirm the increase in initial strength, the compressive strength of specimens was measured on the age of 7, 28 days. As a result, the blast furnace slag concrete using the electrolysis alkaline aqueous solution as the mixed water show high strength more than the blast furnace slag concrete using the general mixed water.

The impact of temperature on electrode reactions in 100 cm² molten carbonate cells operating as Fuel Cells (FC) and Electrolysis Cells (EC) was examined using the Reactant Gas Addition (RA) method across a temperature range of 823 to 973 K. The RA findings revealed that introduction of H₂ and CO₂, reduced the overpotential at Hydrogen Electrode (HE) in both the modes. However, no explicit temperature dependencies were observed. Conversely, adding O₂ and CO₂ to the Oxygen Electrode (OE) displayed considerable temperature dependencies in FC mode which can be attributed to increased gas solubility due to the electrolyte melting at higher temperatures. In EC mode, there was no observed temperature dependence for overpotential. Furthermore, the addition of O₂ led to a decrease in overpotential, while CO₂ addition resulted in an increased overpotential, primarily due to changes in the concentration of O₂ species.

The wind energy produced at night is being discarded because of the excess power generated at night compared to daytime. To solve this problem, In this study, we analyzed the evaluation contents for evaluation of domestic and overseas water electrolysis systems and drew contents for safety performance contents test of the water electrolysis system based on the evaluation contents. The test contents produced the efficiency measurement test, the hydrogen generated pressure test, and the hydrogen purity test. And the safety performance evaluation of the alkaline water electrolysis system of $5Nm^3/hr$ was performed based on the results. As a result, the hydrogen generation was calculated as $5.10Nm^3/hr$ and the stack efficiency was $4.97kWh/Nm^3$. The purity of the hydrogen generated was 99.993% and it was confirmed that it produced high purity hydrogen. I think will help us assess and build safety performance of water electrolysis systems in the future.

We investigated to find the optimum operation condition of electrolysis which have an influence on removal efficiency of heavy metals. When we experimented the testing wastewaters containing each 250mg/L of Cu and Ni ions, we got the variables like as pH, amount of electrolyte(NaCl), different species of electrode, electrode gap, electric strength, the number of electrodes, after fastening positive electrode plate with Al, Fe, Ti and negative electrode plate with Stainless Steel plate.

To investigate how to produce the crack free and chromium deposits, bath compositions, additives, electrolysis conditions and other electroplating parameters, such as cathodic current efficiency, surface hard-ness, crack density and corrosion rate of deposits were examined carefully. The crack free chrome deposits were well obtained using both wetting agents and two kind of additives. At 60 A/d$\m^2$, $60^{\circ}C$ electrolysis condition, crack free bright hard chromium deposits were well obtained to a thickness $300\mu\textrm{m}$ in Additive-I and Additive-II added solution.

The variation of Composition and the microstructure of Zn-Ni alloy electrodespposits were investigated to the electrolysis conditions chloride bath. The codeposition mechanism is of the equilibrium type in the electrolysis condition of the high temperature(6$0^{\circ}C$)and high flow rate (1.2-3.0m/sec). The(411, 330) perferred orienation was mainly developed in the Zn-Ni electrodeposir with ${\gamma}$-phase structure, while the(422.600) orientation was closely related to the commposition and the structure of the alloy electrodeposit.
