The corrosion behavior of metals and alloys for the safety of offshore structures in seawater was investigated for the application of sacrificial anodes. The experiments were focused on the polarization behaviors and the surface morphology of each metal after experiments. Pure Zn, pure Al (Al1050), Al alloys (Al5052, Al6061), Mg alloys (AZ31, AZ91D) and steel (SCM440) were assessed in 3.5% sodium chloride solution by means of potentiodynamic polarization to verify the galvanic corrosion potential ($E_{couple}$). Potentiostat plots were plotted to compare the surface and corrosion current density ($i_{couple}$) of metals as sacrificial anodes in seawater to protect steel alloy as a cathode. Al alloys showed the best performance as a sacrificial anode, on the other hand, Mg alloys showed overprotection behavior. The surface morphologies of sacrificial anodes were observed by FESEM and compared.

This paper presents the results of the galvanic anode's characteristicsin the Al-Zn-In-Mg and Al-Zn-In-Mg system anodes used aluminium ingot of low purity, 99.5% grade. The results of thses performance tests are as follows: 1) Zn, In and Mg are an available elements to improve the performance of Aluminium alloy anodes. 2) When the range of zinc content in the Al-Zn-In-Mg system anode is 2-5% the more zinc content, the more improve the anode performance. 3) Al-Zn-In-Mg system anode requires a long term over 50 days for the performance test. 4) The composition of Al-Zn-In-Mg system anode which shows the most excellent performance is Al-(2-3%) Zn-(0.02%) In-(1.0%) Mg. 5) When the Al-Zn-In-Mg system anode is annealed for an hour in 500 to 550 .deg. C, the anode performance is improved. 6) The lower average potential and the better corrosion pattern in the Al-Zn-Mg, Al-Zn-In and Al-Zn-In-Mg system anodes, the more current efficiency is improved.

용융탄산염연료전지(MCFC)용 다공성 Ni 양극에 3~10 wt% Al를 첨가하여 tape casting 법으로 제조된 Ni-Al 양극의 전기화학적성능 및 구조적안정성이 조사되었다. 본 연구에서 제조된 양극의 전기화학적 성능이 $650^{\circ}C$, MCFC 양극분위기(80% H$_2$＋20% $CO_2$)를 모사한 half-cell 에서 양분극 특성으로 평가되었는데, 전류밀도 150 ㎃/$\textrm{cm}^2$ 에서의 분극전압은 약 100 ㎷로 실용전지의 양극으로서 가능성을 보였다. Ni-Al 양극의 소결과 creep에 대한 저항성은 Ni 양극에 비해 증가되었는데, 이는 Ni 입자 표면에 형성된 $Al_2$O$_3$의 영향으로 판단되었다.

In this work, impedance Spectroscopic analysis was applied to study the effect of plasma treatment on the surface of indium-tin oxide (ITO) anodes using $CF_4g$ as and to model the equivalent circuit for organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) with the $CF_4$ plasma treatment of ITO surface at the anodes. This device with ITO/TPD/$Alq_3$/LiF/Al structure can be modeled as a simple combination of a resistor and a capacitor. The $CF_4$ plasma treatment on the surface of ITO shifts the vacuum level of the ITO as a result of which the barrier height for hole injection at the ITO/organic interface is reduced. The Impedance spectroscopy measurement of the devices with the $CF_4$ plasma treatment on the surface of ITO anodes shows change of values in parallel resistance ($R_p$) and parallel capacitance ($C_p$).

The increasing demand for high-performance energy storage systems has highlighted the limitations of conventional Li-ion batteries (LIBs), particularly regarding safety and energy density. All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) have emerged as a promising next-generation energy storage system, offering the potential to address these issues. By employing nonflammable solid electrolytes and utilizing high-capacity electrode materials, ASSBs have demonstrated improved safety and energy density. Automotive and energy storage industries, in particular, have recognized the significance of advancing ASSB technology. Although the use of Li metal as ASSB anode is promising due to its high theoretical capacity and the expectation that Li dendrites will not form in solid electrolytes, persistent problems with Li dendrite formation during cycling remain. Therefore, the exploration of novel high-performance anode materials for ASSBs is highly important. Recent research has focused extensively on alloy-based anodes for ASSBs, owing to their advantages of no dendrite formation and high-energy density. This study provides a comprehensive review of the latest advancements and challenges associated with alloy-based anodes for ASSBs.

A simple bi-layer structure of organic light emitting diode (OLED) was used to study the characteristics of anode preparation. Indium tin oxide (ITO) anode surface treatment of OLEDs was performed to get the optimum condition for the ITO anode. The ITO surface was treated by $O_2$ or $O_2$ / Ar mixed gas plasma with different processing time. The electrical characteristics of OLED were improved by plasma treatment. The operating voltage of OLED with $O_2$ or $O_2$/Ar mixed gas plasma treated anodes decreases from 8.2 to 3.4 V and 3.2V, respectively. The $O_2$ /Ar mixed gas plasma treatment results in better electrical property.

Sixteen reinforced concrete laboratory specimens were used to evaluate a number of corrosion prevention methods under an accelerated (6 months) testing program. The use of galvanic thermal sprayed zinc, galvanic embedded anodes, a tri-silane sealer, an acrylic coating, and an epoxy/polyurethane coating was evaluated. The specimens received various treatments prior to exposure to accelerated corrosion. The performance of the treatments was evaluated with respect to corrosion currents, chloride ingress, extent of cracking, severity of rust staining, and visual inspection of the reinforcing steel after the conclusion of testing and dissection. Results indicated that the tri-silane sealer, the conjoint use of galvanic thermal sprayed zinc and epoxy/polyurethane coating, the epoxy/polyurethane coating, and acrylic coating performed better than the other methods tested. Higher chloride concentrations were measured in the vicinity of embedded zinc anodes.
