이산화탄소 배출이 없는 고분자 전해질 막 연료전지(polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell, PEMFC)는 수송용, 발전용 시스템에 적용 가능한 친환경 에너지 변환장치이다. PEMFC의 주요 구성품 중 하나인 고분자 전해질 막(polymer electrolyte membrane, PEM)은 구동시간 동안의 높은 수소 이온 전도도와 물리화학적 안정성 갖춘 과불소화계 고분자(perfluorinated sulfonic acid, PFSA) 기반 PEM (PFSA-PEM)이 상용화 되어있다. 하지만 PFSA-PEM의 단점으로 지적되는 낮은 유리전이온도와 높은 기체 투과도의 보완이 요구되고 있다. 이에 본 총설에서는 PFSA-PEM의 성능 향상 및 단점 보완을 위해 1) PFSA의 측쇄부 길이를 조절함으로써 이온교환용량의 증가와 고분자의 결정성을 증가시켜 PFSA-PEM의 능력을 향상시킨 연구와 2) 유/무기 첨가제를 도입하여 수소 이온 전도도 및 물리적 안정성을 향상시키는 복합 막 연구 및 3) 다공성 지지체를 도입하여 PEM의 두께를 효과적으로 감소시켜 막 저항을 효과적으로 줄이고 내구성을 큰 폭으로 개선한 다공-충진막에 관한 연구를 소개하고자 한다.

연료전지는 수소와 산소를 연료로 하여 전기를 생산해 내는 장치로, 전기분해에 의해 음극에서 생성된 수소이온을 양극으로 전달할 수 있는 전해질을 필요로 한다. 전해질로써 Nafion과 같은 불소계 고체 고분자 막이 개발되어 왔으나, 고온에서의 수소이온 전도도 감소 및 높은 함수율에 따른 안정성 감소 등의 문제로 인해 새로운 연료전지용 고분자 전해질 막의 개발을 필요로 하였다. 본 연구에서는 술폰산기가 밀집된 구조를 갖는 단량체를 이용함으로써 높은 수소이온 전도도를 확보하고 이에 따른 고분자 막의 높은 함수율은 고분자 사슬 내에 나이트릴(CN) 작용기를 친수성 올리고머에 함께 도입함으로써 고분자 사슬간 쌍극자-쌍극자 상호작용을 통해 극복할 수 있도록 하였다. 결과적으로 물리적 가교가 형성된 고분자 막들은 높은 함수율 대비 우수한 치수안정성을 나타내었으며, 모든 조성에서 Nafion-117 고분자막에 비해 낮은 IEC값을 가짐에도 불구하고 보다 높은 전도도를 나타내었다.

We have produced electrolyte solution out of 1.15M $LiPF_6$ EC/EMC/DEC/PC(30/55/10/5 by vol%) as a reference, and at the same time, performed basic physical property test using a single solvent of 1.15M $LiPF_6$ DEC, DMC, EMC and a 2 component electrolyte solution of 1.15M $LiPF_6$ EC/DEC(1/2 by vol%) and PC/DEC(1/2 by vol%). Cyclic Voltammetry Analysis showed that, compared to existing carbonate organic solvent, the addition of DEC,DMC and EMC brought the de-decomposition peak of salt anion of $PF_6$ and the solvent at lower oxidization potential of 2.3V, 0.7V and 2.1V(vs. $Li/Li^+$). In addition, a kinetics current peak, in which intercalation of Lt is proceeded at 750mV, 450mV(vs. $Li/Li^+$), was confirmed. These findings suggest that the DEC solvent decomposition occurred at an electric potential lower than that of oxidization of existing carbonate organic solvent. Through the impedance analysis, we checked electric charge transfer resistance($R_{ct}$) according to the electric potential of $Li^+$ intercalation at 750mV(vs. $Li/Li^+$), which was the same as the resistance ($R_f$) and cyclic voltammetry of SEI film that was formed at Reference. By doing so, we found that the significant decrease of polarization resistance($R_p$) when Reference was played a part in the formation of compact SEI layer at the initial decomposition reaction.

We have produced electrolyte solution out of 1.15M LiPF$\sub$6/ EC/EMC/DEC/PC(30/55/10/5 by vol%) as a reference, and at the same time, performed basic physical property test using a single solvent of 1.15M LiPF$\sub$6/DEC, DMC, EMC and a 2 component electrolyte solution of 1.15M LiPF$\sub$6/ EC/DEC(1/2 by vo%%) and PC/DEC(1/2 by vol%). Cyclic Voltammetry Analysis showed that, compared to existing carbonate organic solvent, the addition of DEC, DMC and EMC brought the de-decomposition peak of salt anion of PF$\sub$6/$\^$-/ and the solvent at lower oxidization potential of 2.3V, 0.7V and 2.1V(vs. Li/Li$\^$+/\`). In addition, a kinetics current peak, in which intercalation of Li$\^$+/ is proceeded at 750mv, 450mv(vs. Li/Li$\^$+/), was confirmed. These findings suggest that the DEC solvent decomposition occurred at an electric potential lower than that of oxidization of existing carbonate organic solvent. Through the impedance analysis, we checked electric charge transfer resistance(R$\sub$ct/) according to the electric potential of Li$\^$+/ intercalation at 750mv(vs. Li/Li$\^$+/), which was the same as the resistance (R$\sub$f/) and cyclic voltammetry of SEI film that was formed at Reference. By doing so, we found that the significant decrease of polarization resistance(R$\sub$p/) when Reference was played a part in the formation of compact SEI layer at the initial decomposition reaction.

본 연구에서는 가교성 작용기가 기능화된 사다리형 폴리실세스키옥산(LPMA64)을 합성하였고, 이를 액상 전해질의 열 가교 공정에 활용하여 유기-무기 하이브리드 겔 고분자 전해질을 제조하였다. 5 wt%의 낮은 LPMA64 고분자 가교제 함량으로도 전해질 내 네트워크 구조가 잘 발달하여, 우수한 형태 안정성과 높은 이온 전도도를 가지는 전해질의 제조가 가능하였다. 하이브리드 겔 고분자 전해질이 적용된 리튬-황 전지는 안정적인 율속과 장수명 성능 및 높은 쿨롱 효율을 나타냈으며, 이는 완화된 리튬 폴리설파이드 셔틀 현상에 기인했다. 본 연구결과는 제조된 유기-무기 하이브리드 겔 고분자 전해질이 리튬-황 전지 응용에 유망한 전해질임을 보여주었다.

In the present study, tin-zinc alloys were coated on a cold-rolled steel sheet with variations of electrolyte concentration, additives quantity and current density employing the Hull cell and circulation cell simulator. With an addition of additives of 2m1/L, tin-zinc deposits containing 10 to 40 percent Zn revealed a good surface appearance with weak acidic electrolytes. The organic additives suppressed the Sn deposition rate and thus increased the zinc contents in tin-zinc coating layers. The zinc contents in the tin-zinc coating layers depended almost linearly on the concentrations of metal ions of tin and zinc. Temperature of the electrolyte affected the composition tin-zinc coating layer. However, the concentration of complexants revealed little effectiveness. The surface morphology of tin-zinc coating showed dense tin and zinc phases with fine equiaxed grains with the high current density.

We have investigated ionic conductivity and electrochemical stability of the electrolytes containing organic solvent. Ion conductivities were measured between 10 and 80$^{\circ}C$, and electrochemical stabilities were determined by cyclic voltammetry on glassy carbon, platinum and aluminum electrodes. Ionic conductivity of electrolyte(EC:DEC=1:1) with IM LiPF$\_$6/ shows better than that of the other electrolytes having Li salts. The IM LiBF$_4$-PC electrolyte exhibits good electrochemical stability. IM LiPF$\_$6/ (EC:DEC=1:1) and IM LiPF$\_$6/ (EC:DMC=1:1) electrolytes are used for the high capacity of battery system.

In order to increase the specific capacitance and energy density of supercapacitors, non-aqueous supercapacitors were prepared using lithium transition-metal oxides and activated carbons as active materials. The electrochemical properties were analyzed in terms of the content of lithium transition-metal oxides. The results of cyclic voltammetry and AC-impedance analyses showed that the pseudocapacitance may stem from the synergistic contributions of capacitive and faradic effects; the former is due to the electric double layer which is prepared in the interface of activated carbon and organic electrolyte, and the latter is due to the intercalation of lithium ($Li^+$) ions. The specific capacitance and energy density of a supercapacitor improved as the lithium transition-metal oxides content increased, showing 60% increase compared to those of supercapacitor using a pure activated carbon positive electrode.

Ru-C nano-composite films were prepared by MOCVD, and their microstructures and their electrode properties for oxygen gas sensors were investigated. Deposited films contained Ru particles of 5-20 nm in diameter dispersed in amorphous C matrix. The AC conductivities associating to the interface charge transfer between Ru-C composite electrode and YSZ electrolyte were 100-1000 times higher than that of conventional paste-Pt electrodes. The emf values of the oxygen gas concentration cell constructed from the nano-composite electrodes and YSZ electrolyte showed the Nernstian theoretical values at low temperatures around 500 K. The response time of the concentration cell was 900 s at 500 K.

Inorganic polymer based hybrid membranes consisting of zirconium oxide and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) have been synthesized by sol-gel processes. The hybrid membranes showed thermal stability and flexibility up to $300^{\circ}C$. The membrane becomes proton conducting polymer electrolyte when added with 12-phosphotungstic acid (PWA). The conductivity of the membranes was measured in the temperature range from room temperature to $150^{\circ}C$ under saturated humidity and a maximum conductivity of $5{\times}10^{-5}\;Sm^{-1}$ was obtained at $150^{\circ}C$.
