In this work, the electrochemical properties of the surface treated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) are investigated for supercapacitors. Nitrogen- and oxygen functional groups containing MWNTs are prepared by nitrogen precursors and acidic treatment, respectively. The surface properties of the MWNTs are confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Zeta-potential measurements. The electrochemical properties of the MWNTs are investigated by cyclic voltammetry, impedance spectra, and charge-discharge cycling performance in 1 M $H_2SO_4$ at room temperature. As a result, these functionalized MWNTs lead to an increase in the specific capacitance as compared with the pristine MWNTs. It proposes that the pyridinic and pyridinic-N-oxides nitrogen species influence on the specific capacitance due to their positive charges, and thus an improved electron transfer at high current loads, since they are the most important functional groups affecting capacitive behaviors.

동일한 화산회로부터 발달한 세개의 하와이 토양을 사용하여 중요한 토양 물리화학적 성질을 결정하는 인자인 토양표면전하 (soil surface charge)의 특성에 대한 조사를 수행하였다. 높은 강우량(년 3050mm 이상)하에서 발달한 두 Typic Hydrandepts 토양은 pH 변화에 따른 음 양 전하의 발달이 대단히 컸으며 등전점은 각각 Akaka 토양이 5.0-5.5 사이, Hilo 토양이 6.5-7.0 사이에 있었다. 한편 낮은 강우량(년 500mm 이하)하에서 발달한 Ustolic Camorthid 토양은 pH 변화에 따른 음 양전하의 발달이 위 두 토양에 비하여 훨씬 낮았으며, 등전점 역시 4.5-5.0 사이로서 낮았다. 따라서 자연조건에서 Kawaihae 토양만이 -(음)의 ${\Delta}pH$를 나타내고 Akaka와 Hilo 토양은 +(양) 내지 0 근처의 ${\Delta}pH$ 값을 보여 주고 있다. X-ray 회절분석에 의하여 Typic Hydrandepts 토양의 주광물은 무정형 광물 (60 % 이상)이었고, Ustollic Camorthid 토양중의 주광물은 dehydrated halloysite(1:1 점토광물) (45-50 %)이었음이 밝혀졌다. 이같은 동일한 화산회에서부터 발달한 토양의 현저한 광물학적 차이는 토양발달과정중의 강우량 차이에서 기인한 것으로 추정된마, 세토양중의 점토함량은 최저 42% (Akaka 토양)와 최고 57% (Hilo 토양)로 그 차이가 크지 않았으나 이들 토양의 표면적 ($m^2/g$)은 289 (Akaka 토양), 268 (Hilo 토양) 그리고 93 (Kawaihae 토양)으로서 특별히 Kawaihae 토양이 현저히 낮았다. 이같은 토양간의 표면적과 전하적 특성의 현저한 차이는 토양중의 광물학적 차이에서 오는 것이며 1:1 광물이 주를 이루는 우리나라 대부분의 토양은 본 연구 중의 Kawaihae 토양과 유사한 특성을, 그리고 우리나라 제주도 화산회토의 일부는 Akaka나 Hilo 토양의 특성을 따를 것으로 예상되는 바이다.

This paper deals with change of contact angle, surface potential decay, surface resistivity and XPS of water-treated epoxy insulator. From the experimental results on the contact angle was reduced from $74^{\circ}$to $24^{\circ}$ due to the formation of polar hydroxyl groups on surface which was associated with intermolecular reaction between epoxy chains of three-dimensional network structure and water molecules. From the experimental results in the surface potential decay of water treated-samples, it was found that the accumulation of charge is decreased and the surface potential decay time is shortened by the interaction of polar hydroxyl groups induced on the treated surface as the increment of treatment time. The positive charging on the treated surface compared with negative charging is relatively lowered by the induction of polar hydroxyl groups. The surface resistivity was changed from $10^{15}[{\Omega}/cm^2$] to $10^{12}[{\Omega}/cm^2$] caused by water treatment. From XPS, it was found that the changes affected by the surface degradation of epoxy were caused by the generation of carboxyl groups through the chain decomposition and recombination with oxygen molecules in the air.

Phenomena of streaming electrification of insulting oil(T.O) is studied where the oil is contacted with solid insulating materials when it is pumped through a circulating system in a large power transformer. The leakage current, the electrical potential at the neutral terminal point of the transformer and the surface electrical potential of the oil are investigated. And the leakage current from the neutral terminal point is measured as a function of a bias polarity applied to a transformer case to investigate the polarty of ion which is absorbed in the case at the interface between the case and oil. As a result, it is found that insulating materials, and it is suggested that the leakage current is the sum of the relaxation current by positive charge from insulating oil to the neutral terminal point and by electrification current from negative charge electrified by the contact with solid insulating materials.

This study investigates the use of methyl-esterified eggshell membranes (MESM) for the harvesting of microalgae species under various conditions. Eggshell membranes were esterified with HCl to impact polycationic characteristics. After methyl esterification, the negative surface charge property of eggshell membrane was changed from negative to positive for all pH values to improve microalgae sorption capacity. The harvesting efficiency of microalgae by MESM reached 78-99% for all pH ranges evaluated. In addition, a 150 mesh particle size and $10mg\;L^{-1}$ MESM dose were found to yield up to 98% microalgae harvesting. These results indicate that the high cationic charge of MESM strongly adsorbs the negatively-charged microalgae. MESM is biocompatible and can be applied to the harvest of microalgae.

In this paper, it is attempted to distinguish the charged particles and to judge the polarity by the use of Thermally Stimulated Current(TSC) and Temperature Gradient Thermally Stimulated Surface Potential Measurement(TG-TSSP)with experimental insulation material XLPE-EVA for power cables which is made by blending cross-linked polyethylene(XLPE) and ethylene-vinylacetate copolymer(EVA). In addition, it is performed to investigate the effect of EVA blending. From the experimental results, it is known that for the case of XLPE-EVA blended experimental material, the generation of space charged electric field is not obtained in the high temperature region due to the obatruction of the injection of trapping carrier by the electron and the positive hole.

Mo-doped $LiFePO_4$ was synthesized via co-precipitation method using sucrose as the carbon source. Structure, surface morphology, and the electrochemical properties of the synthesized olivine compounds were investigated using Rietveld refinement of X-ray diffraction data (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and electrochemical charge-ischarge tests. Spherical morphology with the particle size of ${\sim}8{\mu}m$ authenticated the enhanced tap density and volumetric energy density of the synthesized materials. Charge-discharge behavior of $LiFePO_4$ and Mo-doped $LiFePO_4$ cells demonstrated a specific capacity of 130 and 145 mAh $g^{-1}$, respectively. Mo-doped $LiFePO_4$ cells exhibited an excellent discharge capacity at 96 mAh $g^{-1}$ at 7 C-rate.

Dye-sensitized nanocrystalline rutile $TiO_2$ solar cells were prepared, and the influence of Li+ and 1,2-dimethyl-3-hexyl imidazolium ions in the electrolyte on the photovoltaic properties was compared. The electrolyte con-taining Li+ ions produced a lower open-circuit photovoltage than the electrolyte with 1,2-dimethyl-3-hexyl im-idazolium ions, suggesting that the adsorption of Li+ ions to the rutile $TiO_2$ surface causes a shift in the band edges toward more positive potentials. At the same time, both the short-circuit photocurrent and the maximum value of the incident-photon-current conversion efficiency (IPCE) of the electrolyte containing Li+ ions were relatively higher. Data analysis suggests that presence of adsorbed Li+ ions improves via the phenomenon of band-edge movement the charge-injection efficiency by altering both the energy and number of excited state levels of the dye that participate in electron injection.

This paper temperature gradient thermally stimulated surface potentian (TG-TSSP) in measurements are applied to the study of the polarity of trapped and ionic carriers in cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) filsm. In the thermally stimulated current in uniform temperature (TSC) of XLPE five peaks appear as indicated of the A B C D and E. In this paper A (at about -120$^{\circ}C$) D (at about 70$^{\circ}C$) and E (at about 110$^{\circ}C$) peaks are investigated. A peak is due to the biassing voltage and biassing temperature. Appear in to the glass transition temperature territory and caused in to the polarization of dipole. D peak is due to the depolarization of ionic space charge and E peak due to the detrapping of carriers injected from the electrodes. TG-TSSP and TSSP are measured to study the polarity of ionic carrier (D peak). In the unsatureated region of ionic space charge polarization, TG-TSSP is lower than TSSP during the initial stage of heating. Result of the experiment for E peak, TG-TSSP is higher than TSSP during the initial stage of heating and these results do not depend on the polarity of biassing voltage, and E peak is concerned with positive carriers (Holes).

Effects of Na+ ion on zeta potential of SiC and Al2O3 particles suspended in nikel sufate and nickel chloride solutions were investigated. various complexing agents for Ni2+ ion were added to electroless Ni composite bath and the effects of the complexing agents on zeta potential and codeposition of the particles from the baths were studied. It was confirmed that Na+ ion was absorbed on the particles bringing about the positive surface charge and thus they promoted the entrapment of the particles into the nickel deposit. On the basis of these results it was possible to deposit SiCc particle in nickel chloride electrolyte containing complex agent such as trisodium citrate+sodium succinate.
