Photoreaction of guest organic anions in layered organic-inorganic hybrid materials was investigated. The layered hybrids were synthesized by an anion-exchange reaction of $[LiAl_2(OH)_6]Cl{\cdot}yH_2O$ layered double hydroxide with aqueous (Z,Z)- and (E,E)-muconates under inert atmospheric condition, to give new organicinorganic hybrids of $[LiAl_2(OH)_6]_2[(Z,Z)-C_6H_4O_4]{\cdot}zH_2O$ and $[LiAl_2(OH)_6]_2[(E,E)-C_6H_4O_4]{\cdot}H_2O$, respectively. The basal spacings calculated by XRPD of intercalates indicate that muconate anions have almost vertical arrangements against the host $[LiAl_2(OH)_6]^+$ lattices in the interlayer of organic-inorganic hybrid materials. When UV light was irradiated on the suspension of $[LiAl_2(OH)_6]_2[(Z,Z)-C_6H_4O_4]{\cdot}zH_2O$, the (Z,Z)-muconate anions of the gallery space of hybrids were polymerized in the aqueous media while it was isomerized into more stable (E,E)-muconate in the methanollic suspension in the presence of catalytic amount of molecular iodine. All the products were characterized using elemental analysis, TGA, XRPD, FT-IR, $^1H$ NMR and $^{13}C$ CP-MAS NMR.

Electrochemical properties of the Al current collector being used in lithium ion batteries have been studied in the 4 different aprotic electrolytes(1 M $LiBF_4$ EC : DMC, 1 M $LiBF_4$ EC : EMC. 1 M $LiPF_6$ EC : DMC. 1 M $LiPF_6$ EC : EMC) employing cyclic voltammetry and impedance measurement. Al electrode showed a wide range of the electrochemical window(0.5~4.1 V vs. $Li/Li^{+}$). However, solid interfacial materials has been formed on the Al surface due to reduction of impurities($H_2O$, $O_2$, etc), lithium salts, and electrolytes at low applied potentials, and aluminum oxides in the highly oxidizing potential as well. Especially, Al current collector was susceptible to localized in consequence of impurities in electrolytes.

[ $Li_3AlH_6$ ] (5.6wt% theoretical hydrogen storage capacity) powders with and without Ti-containing dopants have been successfully synthesized by mechanochemical reaction near room temperatures from mixtures of LiH and $LiAlH_4$ powders. It has been observed that single phase $Li_3AlH_6$ could be obtained within 2-3 hours of milling, but the addition of reactive $TiCl_2\;or\;TiCl_3$ to the starting mixtures. caused partial decomposition of $LiAlH_4$ into LiCl and free Al with gaseous $H_2$. By addition of these reactive dopants to the as-synthesized $Li_3AlH_6$, this problem could be solved. The addition of 2 mol% $TiCl_2\;or\;TiCl_3\;to\;Li_3AlH_6$ decreased the decomposition start temperature up to 30-50$^{\circ}C$, while that of Ti or $TiH_2$ did not change the thermal decomposition behavior of $Li_3AIH_6$.

A lithium-ion battery exhibits high energy density but has many limitations due to safety issues. Currently, as a solution for this, research on solid state batteries is attracting attention and is actively being conducted. Among the solid electrolytes, sulfide-based solid electrolytes are receiving much attention with high ion conductivity, but there is a limit to commercialization due to the relatively high price of lithium sulfide, which is a precursor material. This study focused on the possibility of relatively inexpensive and light lithium hydride and conducted an experiment on it. In order to analyze the characteristics of LiAlH₄, ion conductivity and thermal stability were measured, and a composites mixed with PVDF, a representative polymer electrolyte, was synthesized to confirm a change in characteristics. And metallurgical changes in the material were performed through XRD, SEM, and BET analysis, and ion conductivity and thermal stability were measured by EIS and LFA methods. As a result, Li₃AlH₆ having ion conductivity higher than LiAlH₄ is formed by the synthesis of composite materials, and thus ion conductivity is slightly improved, but thermal stability is rapidly degraded due to structural irregularity.

$LiNi_{1-y}M_{y}O_{2}(M=Zn^{2+},\;Al^{3+},\;and\;Ti^{4+},\;0.000\{\le}y{\le}0.100)$ were synthesized by the combustion method by calcining in $O_{2}$ stream at $750^{\circ}C$ for 36 h. XRD analyses, observation by FE-SEM and measurement of the variation of discharge capacity with the number of cycles were carried out. The composition $LiNi_{0.99}M_{0.01}O_{2}(M=Zn^{2+},\;Al^{3+},\;and\;Ti^{4+})$ of all the compositions showed relatively good electrochemical properties. $LiNi_{0.99}M_{0.01}O_{2}$ exhibited poor crystallinity and $LiNi_{0.99}M_{0.01}O_{2}$ showed the cation mixing of large fraction. $LiNi_{0.99}M_{0.01}O_{2}$ with improved cycling performance showed good crystallinity and the cation mixing of small fraction.

Effect of Si in the electrochemical corrosion characteristics of Mg-Li-Al light alloy has been investigated by means of potentiodynamic polarization study. The elecrochemical behaviors were evaluated in 003% NaCl solution and the solution buffered with KH$_{2}PO_{5}{\cdot}$NaOH at room temperature. It was found that the addition of very small quantity of Si (0.48 wt%) in Mg-Li-Al light alloy increased corrosion rates and amount of corrosion products and decreated the pitting resistance of the alloy. From the results it was concluded that Si which is added to increase the strength of Mg-Li-Al alloy is harmful to corrosion properties of the alloy.

$K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$ in the $K_2O-Li_2O-Al_2O_3$ ternary system was synthesized using aluminum nitrate solution as a starting material. For the synthesis of pure $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$, raw materials with chemical composition of $0.84K_2O{\cdot}0.082Li_2O{\cdot}5.2Al_2O_3$ were mixed in solution state. The effects of dispersant and solution-pH were investigated in minimizing the particle size and on the synthesis of pure $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$. Ethanol was used for a dispersant, and $NH_4OH$ solution and nitric acid were added for pH adjustment. The solution pH was increased from 1.0 to 7.5 by 0.5 increments. Each sample was calcined at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 2 h and characterized with X-ray diffraction and particle size analyzer. The pH of solution significantly effected both particle size and phase formation, while the addition of ethanol only effected particle size. The synthesis of pure $K^+-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}-Al_2O_3$ was favored by addition of nitric acid (for pH control).

This paper was studied on corrosion behavior of absorption refrigeration systems using $LiBr-H_2O$ working fluids. In the various concentration of lithium bromide solution, polarization test of SS 400, Cu(C1220T-OL) and Al-Ni bronze is carried out. And the corrosion behavior of materials forming absorption refrigeration systems is investigated. The main results are as following: 1) As concentration of lithium bromide solution increases, polarization resistance of materials of each kinds is low. And open circuit potential becomes less noble, the corrosion current density is high drained 2) Open circuit potential of SS 400 is less noble than that of Cu and Al-Ni bronze, corrosion current density of SS5 400 is high drained than that of Cu and Al-Ni bronze. 3) Anodic polarization of Cu and Al-Ni bronze in $62\%$ LiBr solution continues the active state. that of Cu and Al-Ni bronze in the natural sea water maintains the active state and the critical current for passivation appears.
