  • This paper is a study on the prevention of crevice corrosion for a stainless steel heat exchanger in various pH solutions and with Cl ion concentrations. The electrochemical polarization test and crevice corrosion test of STS 304 for a heat exchanger were carried out. The crevice corrosion aspect, a passive behavior, crevice corrosion behavior, and corrosion protection characteristics of STS 304 using Al-alloy and Mg-alloy galvanic anode were considered. The main results are as follows: 1. The crevice corrosion of STS 304 occurs in the crevice and this corrosion increases pitting according to depth direction. On the other hand, the exterior crevice becomes passive. 2. With changing from a neutral to acid environment and increasing Cl ion concentration, the pitting potential of STS 304 lowers, and thus the crevice corrosion of STS 304 is sensitive. 3. The cathodic protection potential of STS 304 in the crevice is cathodically polarized by increasing Cl ion concentration. Therefore, an Al-alloy galvanic anode is more suitable than a Mg-alloy galvanic anode to protect the crevice corrosion of STS 304.

  • Stainless steel has been stably used closed by passivity oxidation films(Cr₂O₃) is made by neutral atmospheric environment. However, passivity oxidaton films of the surface of stainless steel occasionally comes to be destroyed in seawater which is influenced by an environment having galogen ion like Cl‾, then, localization corrosion comes to occur Stainless steel 304 for shaft system material of the small-size FRP fishing boat on seawater environments made an experiment on simulation of sacrifical anode(Al, Zn). Through these experiment and study, following results have been obtained ; According to the field inspection and corrosion simulation, the corrosion on the 2nd class stainless steel shaft(STS304) in FRP fishing boat has been verified to occur by crevice corrosion and galvanic corrosion etc., According to the comparison and analysis of Stainless steel 304 was severely corroded, but, protected shaft specimen was not totallay corroded. This result is assumed to be made by the facts that anodic reaction, Fe → fe²++ 2e¯, has been restricted by the cathodic protection current of sacrificial anode material.

  • As to the reflection electrode of LCD (liquid crystal displays), silver-copper-gold alloy (hereafter, it is called as ACA (Ag98%, Cu1%, Au1%)) is an effective material of which weathering resistance can be improved more compared with pure silver. However, there is a problem that gold remains on the substrate as residues when ACA is etched in cerium ammonium nitrate solution or phosphoric acid. Gold can not be etched in these etchants as readily as the other two alloying elements. Gold residue has actually been removed physically by brushing etc. This procedure causes damage to the display elements. Another etchant of iodine/potassium iodide generally known as one of the gold etchants can not give precise etch pattern because of remarkable difference in etching rates among silver, copper and gold. The purpose of this research is to obtain a practical etchant for ACA alloy. The results are as follows. The cyanogen complex salt of gold generates when cyanide is used as the etchant, in which gold dissolves considerably. Oxygen reduction is important as the cathodic reaction in the dissolution of gold. A new etchant of sodium cyanide / potassium ferricyanide whose cathodic reduction is stronger than oxygen, can give precise etch patterns in ACA alloy swiftly at room temperature.

  • This paper was studied on the corrosion behavior of STS 304 for gas boiler in the condensed water, the electrochemical polarization test of STS 304 for gas boiler in the condensed water was carried out. And the corrosion behavior of STS 304 was considered. The main results are as following: 1) As corrosion environment is acidified from neutrality, the polarization resistance of STS 304 decreases and the corrosion potential is less noble. 2) The corrosion reaction mechanism of STS 304 is cathodic control. 3) As corrosion environment is acidified, the passive potential range of STS 304 decreases. Also, the passive current density of STS 304 increases.

  • An anatase TiO2 nanotube array (NTA) was fabricated by anodization and successive heat treatments. When the anatase TiO2 NTA was cathodically polarized, its color changed to blue, and it could be used as an electrochemically active anode for an oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline water electrolysis. The structure of the blue anatase TiO2 NTA was controlled by the anodization conditions and its catalytic activity increased with an increase of the surface area. The activity of the blue anatase TiO2 NTA gradually reduced with the continued OER because of the partial oxidation of Ti3+ to Ti4+. However, an intermittent cathodic regeneration process could significantly slow its reduction rate. The blue anatase TiO2 NTA could be an alternative anode for alkaline water electrolysis.

  • When the low heavy oil is using as fuel oil to the diesel engine, some problems such as corrosion resistance, wear resistance and heat resistance are happened in diesel engine's internal material, especially the adhesive wear of piston ring groove was occurred as a important problem. Therefore to prevent adhesive wear of its groove, the surface of its groove used to be electroplated with Chrominum and for its Chromium electroplating, Fe anode is being used until nowadays because of its Special shape. However in case of using Fe anode, there were some problems such as deterioation of solution, property of Chromium film, and condition of coation. In this paper Pb anode electroplated withPb to the steel plate was investigated for its Chromium electroplating for Pb's high corrosion resistance in acid solution, and Pb anode is not dissolved compared with Fe anode and deterioration degree of solution in case of Pb anode is smaller than that of Fe anode and also property of Chromium film was better than that of Fe anode. Moreover it was known that the optimum cathodic current density for Pb electroplating to steel plate as insoluable anode for Chromium coating of piston ring groove is 30mA/$cm^2$ by experimental results obtained.

  • It has been observed that coated steel structures are rapidly deteriorated than designed lifetime due to acid rain caused by air pollution etc.. Therefore improvement of corrosion resistance of anti-corrosive paint is very important in terms of safety and economic point of view. In this study corrosion resistance for five kinds of anti-corrosive paints including acryl, fluorine and epoxy resin series were investigated with electrochemical methods such as corrosion potential, polarization curves, impedance and cyclic voltammogram measurements etc.. There were somewhat good relationships between values measured by electrochemical methods such as corrosion current density obtained by cathodic and anodic polarization curves, value of impedance estimated with AC impedance, and polarization resistance on the cyclic voltammogram, for example, corrosion current density was decreased with increasing of values of impedance and polarization resistance on the cyclic voltammogram. However their relationships between corrosion current density and corrosion potential were not well coincided each other. Consequently it is considered that although a corrosion potential of F101 of fuoric resin series shifted to negative direction than other anti-corrosive paints, its corrosion resistance, indicating on the cathodic and anodic polarization curves, AC impedance curves and cyclic voltammogram, was the most superior to other paints, whereas A100 containing arcylic resin showed a relatively poor corrosion resistance compared to other paints.

  • Changes of peroxidase activity, polyamine content and ethylene production during somatic embryogenesis in suspension-cultured carrot (Daucus carota L.) cells were investigated. As compared with nonembyrogenic cells and their medium, embryogenic cells and their medium were characterized by higher levels of peroxidase at all times of culture period. Peroxidase in embryogenic cells showed higher oxidation activity of IAA than in nonembryogenic cells at the torpedo stage, but the IAA oxidation activity of peroxidase released into embryogenic medium was lower than that of peroxidase released into nonembryogenic medium. Peroxidase patterns of embryogenic and nonembryogenic cells showed three cathodic bands, and one anodic band, while peroxidase patterns released into embryogenic and nonembryogenic media did not show any anodic bands and the isoelectric points of cathodic peroxidase were pH 7.7, 7.5 and 6.6. Compared with nonembryogenic cells, polyamine content in embryogenic cells was increased by 15% at the torpedo stage, but polyamine ratio was constant, and ethylene production was extremely low at all times of culture period. Therefore, it is suggested that the peroxidase in embryogenic cells is correlated with embryogenesis by regulating hormone ratios through IAA oxidation, while the peroxidase isozyme patterns may be used as a biochemical marker of embryogenesis. The increase of polyamine content and the decrease of ethylene production suggest an interaction between polyamine and ethlyene during embryogenesis.

  • Corrosion resistance and torque of M10 bolt coated with Magni 565 were investigated. Corrosion protection mechanism were also studied with the microstructure of coating film. The bolts with the optimum conditions showed around $10{\mu}m$ layer thickness, a great corrosion resistance in salt spray test and a proper torque in torque/tension test. But torque coefficient k increased with the number of bolting and clamping force of M10 bolt showed significantly lower than that of specified value 28.3kN. It was thought that the repeated bolting made the coating film peel off and powdery. The sample coated with optimum coating conditions showed more higher polarization resistance and corrosion potential than the specimens of top and base coat only. The base coating film was composed of lamellar zinc flakes, which provides a large sacrificial cathodic protection. Meanwhile, the top coating film was composed of organic aluminium pigments layer, which provides barrier protection to the corrosion circumstances.

  • (La,Sr)MnO$_3$(LSM)-YSZ 복합체 양극에 있어서 소결온도 및 전극두께와 cathodic potential이 전극 특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 양극의 소결은 삼상계면의 양을 결정하는 중요한 변수로 LSM 단미 양극과 YSZ가 40 wt% 포함된 LSM-YSZ 복합체 양극 모두 120$0^{\circ}C$에 소결했을 때 가장 낮은 분극저항을 나타내었다. 또한 양극 후막의 두께가 얇아지면 양극의 in-plane 저항이 증가하여 ohmic 저항이 증가하였는데, LSM-YSZ 복합체 양극의 경우 약 30$mu extrm{m}$ 정도의 전극두께가 가장 효과적인 전극 특성을 나타내었다. 한편, LSM-YSZ 복합체 양극에 -0.5 V의 cathodic potential을 인가함에 따라 양극에서 일어나는 산소환원반응의 활성이 증가하였는데, 1가 산소이온의 표면확산반응의 분극저항은 감소하였으나, 고주파수 영역에서 나타나는 산소이온전달반응의 저항은 거의 변화하지 않았다. 이것은 Mn의 환원에 의한 양극표면에 생성된 산소공공에 기인한다.
