본 연구에서는 인덕션 탑플레이트(induction top plate) 소재로 사용된 후 폐기되는 사용 후 Li₂O-Al₂O₃-SiO₂계 결정화 유리를 활용하여 중금속 용액 내 존재하는 중금속(Pb, Cd, Cr⁶⁺, Hg) 이온들의 제거 실험을 진행하였다. 중금속 흡착제로 사용된 흡착제의 양, 흡착 반응 시간, 초기 중금속 원소의 농도, 초기 용액의 pH 등의 반응 조건에 따른 중금속 제거 효율의 변화를 조사하였다. 사용 후 LAS 첨가량이 증가할수록 중금속 제거 효율이 상승하였다. 흡착 반응 시간은 흡착 특성에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었으며, 모든 중금속 원소들의 제거 효율이 상승하였다. 특히 반응 시간에 따라서 Cd의 경우 흡착제거 효율이 크게 개선되었다. 초기 중금속 용액 농도는 중금속 제거 효율에 영향을 미치지 않았다. 중금속 용액의 pH는 중금속 제거 효율에 영향을 미쳤는데, Cd의 경우 pH증가에 따라 중금속 제거 효율이 증가하였으며, Pb, Cr⁶⁺는 감소하였다. Hg는 pH가 흡착 특성에 큰 영향을 미치지 않았다.

Lithium ions can induce the thermal runaway phenomenon and lead to reignition due to electrical, mechanical, and environmental factors such as high temperature, smoke generation, explosions, or flames, which is extremely likely to create safety concerns. Therefore, one of the ways to improve the flame retardancy of the electrolyte is to use a flame-retardant additive. Comparing the associated characteristic value of existing substances with the required experimental value, it was found that these values were either considerably different or were not documented. It is vital to know a substance's combustion characteristic values, flash point, explosion limit, and autoignition temperature (AIT) as well as its combustion characteristics before using it. In this research, the flash point and AIT of materials were measured by mixing a highly volatile and flammable substance, diethyl carbonate (DEC), with flame-retardant dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP). The flash point of DEC, which is a pure substance, was 29℃, and that for DMMP was 65℃. Further, the lower explosion limit calculated using the measured flash point of DEC was 1.79 Vol.%, while that for DMMP was 0.79 Vol.%. The AIT was 410℃ and 390℃ for DEC and DMMP, respectively. In particular, since the AIT of DMMP has not been discussed in any previous study, it is necessary to ensure safety through experimental values. In this study, the experimental and regression analysis revealed that the average absolute deviation (ADD) for the flash point of the DEC+DMMP DEC+DMMP system is 0.58 sec and that the flash point tends to increase according to changes in the composition employed. It also revealed that the AAD for the AIT of the mixture was 3.17 sec and that the AIT tended to decrease and then increase based on changes in the composition.

Zircaloy-4 합금판재에 230-250ppm의 수소를 장입시키고 $400^{\circ}C$에서 72시간동안 균질하게 수소화물을 형성시킨후 $350^{\circ}C$의 static autoclave를 이용하여 여러 가지 농도의 LiOH 부식용액조건에서 부식시험을 수행하였다. 부식평가는 시간에 따른 무게증가의 변화로서 측정하였고, 시편의 미세구조는 광학현미경과 주사전자현미경을 사용하여 관찰하였다. 부식시험 후 형성된 산화막에서의 H와 Li의 분포를 확인하기 위해 secondary ion mass spectrometry(SIMS)를 이용해 각 원소의 분포를 두께방향에서 측정하였다. 여러 가지 농도의 LiOH 수용액조건에서 Li+ 이온의 용액농도가 30ppm 이상으로 증가하면 합금의 부식은 급격히 가속화되었다. 이것은 $Li^{+}$가 산화막 내의 $Zr^{4+}$ 자리를 치환함에 따라 산소공공이 증가로 산화반응이 증가되고, 이로 인해 형성되는 수소화물의 양이 증가하기 때문이다. LiOH용액조건에서 부식시험 전에 시편 내에 수소를 장입시켜 수소화물을 형성시키면 수소를 장입하지 않은 시편보다 부식이 더 빨리 가속되지만, 시험기간이 길어지면 오히려 수소를 미리 장입시키지 않은 시편의 부식속도가 더 빨라진다. 이것은 부식시험 전에 수소를 시편에 미리 장입을 시키면 이때 형성된 수소화물에 의해 초기에 부식이 빨리 가속되지만 이미 고용도 이상의 수소가 금속 내부에 존재하므로 부식과정 중에 생기는 수소가 금속의 내부로 확산되어 들어오는 것이 억제되어 부식속도가 둔화되는 것으로 생각된다.

A Li$[Co_{0.17}Li_{0.28}Mn_{0.55}]O_2$ cathode compound was prepared by a simple combustion method. The X-ray diffraction pattern showed that this compound could be classified as ${\alpha} -NaFeO_2$ structure type with the lattice constants of a = 2.8405(9) ${\AA}$ and c = 14.228(4) ${\AA}$. According to XANES analysis, the oxidation state of Mn and Co ions in the compound were 4+ and 3+, respectively. During the first charge process, the irreversible voltage plateau at around 4.65 V was observed. The similar voltage-plateau was observed in the initial charge profile of other solid solution series between $Li_2MnO_3\;and\;LiMnO_2$ (M=Ni, Cr...). The first discharge capacity was 187 mAh/g and the second discharge capacity increased to 204 mAh/g. As the increase of cycling number, one smooth discharge profile was converted to two distinct sub-plateaus and the discharge capacity was slowly decreased. From the Co and Mn K-edge XANES spectra measured at different cyclic process, it can be concluded that irreversible transformation of phase is occurred during continuous cycling process.

Si-C composite with hollow spherical structure was synthesized using ultrasonic treatment of organosilica powder formed by hydrolysis of phenyltrimethoxysilane. The prepared powder was pyrolyzed at various temperatures ranging from 900 to 1300 $^{\circ}C$ under nitrogen atmosphere to obtain optimum conditions for Li-ion battery anode materials with high capacity and cyclability. The XRD and elemental analysis results show that the pyrolyzed Si/C composite at 1100 $^{\circ}C$ has low oxygen and nitrogen levels, which is desirable for increasing the electrochemical capacity and reducing the irreversible capacity of the first discharge. The solid Si-C composite electrode shows a first charge capacity of $\sim$500 mAhg$^{-1}$ and a capacity fade within 30 cycles of 0.93% per cycle. On the other hand, the electrochemical performance of the hollow Si-C composite electrode exhibits a reversible charge capacity of $\sim$540 mAhg$^{-1}$ with an excellent capacity retention of capacity loss 0.43% per cycle up to 30 cycles. The improved electrochemical properties are attributed to facile diffusion of Li ions into the hollow shell with nanoscale thickness. In addition, the empty core space provides a buffer zone to relieve the mechanical stresses incurred during Li insertion.

Al-Zn alloy/$MnO_2$, seawater cell was considered as a primary aqueous cell with an average voltage range from 1.0 to 1.1V, and the electrolyte of seawater was uptaken into the cell. Eventually, the capacity of its usage will be used for long-term. However, the more use of this cell, the higher corrosion phenomenon of the electrode occurred. Due to its corrosion phenomenon, one main default has been observed with gradual decrease during a discharge process. In this research, a common-used active material for anode was $LiNiO_2$. An active material for cathode, $Zn_{X}FeS_2$ was synthesized in high temperature by uptaken a small amount of 1.3 wt% of ZnS into $FeS_2$, one of the transition-metal dichalcogenides in high temperature. Consequently, based on their usages shown above, this secondary aqueous lithium cell could be more developed. This cell was shown as remarkable charge/discharge performance during the charge/discharge processes. This cathode with active material was given a considerable efficiency of inserting $Li^+$ ions. Moreever, in accordance with the characteristic of the crystal structure for $Zn_{x}FeS_2$, a small amount of ZnS was added which made it possible to reduce prominently velocity of corrosion during the charge/discharge cycle. By applying those merits, Al-Zn alloy/$MnO_2$ seawater cell will be used as a fundamental data in order to transform into a secondary aqueous cell.

A graphene electrode with a novel in-plane structure is proposed and successfully adopted for use in supercapacitor applications. The in-plane structure allows electrolyte ions to interact with all the graphene layers in the electrode, thereby maximizing the utilization of the electrochemical surface area. This novel structure contrasts with the conventional out-of-plane stacked structure of such supercapacitors. We herein compare the volumetric capacitances of in-plane- and out-of-plane-structured devices with reduced multi-layer graphene oxide films as electrodes. The in-plane-structured device exhibits a capacitance 2.5 times higher (i.e., $327F\;cm^{-3}$) than that of the out-of-plane-structured device, in addition to an energy density of $11.4mWh\;cm^{-3}$, which is higher than that of lithium-ion thin-film batteries and is the highest among in-plane-structured ultra-small graphene-based supercapacitors reported to date. Therefore, this study demonstrates the potential of in-plane-structured supercapacitors with high volumetric performances as ultra-small energy storage devices.

Many electronic devices are powered by various rechargeable batteries such as lithium-ion recently, and occasionally the batteries undergo thermal runaway and cause fire, explosion, and other hazards. If a battery fire should occur in an electronic device of vehicle and aircraft cabin, it is important to quickly extinguish the fire and cool the batteries to minimize safety risks. Attempts to minimize these risks have been carried out by many researchers but the results have been still unsatisfied. Because most rechargeable batteries are operated on the ion state during charge and discharge of electricity and the combustion of ion state has big difference with normal combustion. Here we focused on the effect of ions including an electron during combustion process. The effects of an ionized fuel on the flame stability and the combustion products were experimentally investigated in the propane jet diffusion flames. The burner used in this experiment consisted of 7.5 mm diameter tube for fuel and the propane was ionized with th ionizer (SUNJE, SPN-11). The results show that toe overall flame stability and shape such as flame length has no significant difference even in the higher ion concentration. However the fuel ionization affects to the pollutant emissions such as NOx and soot. NOx and CO emissions measured in post flame region decreased by fuel ionization, especially high fuel velocity, i.e. high ion density. TGA analysis and morphology of soot by TEM indicates that the fuel ionization makes soot to be matured.

The process of charge transfer at the interface between two semiconductors or between a metal and a semiconductor plays an important role in many areas of technology. The optimization of such devices requires a good theoretical description of the interfaces involved. This, in turn, has motivated detailed mechanistic studies of interfacial charge-transfer reactions at metal/organic, organic/organic, and organic/inorganic semiconductor heterojunctions. Charge recombination of photo-induced electron with redox species such as oxidized dyes or triiodide or cationic HTM (hole transporting materials) at the heterogeneous interface of $TiO_2$ is one of main loss factors in liquid junction DSSCs or solid-state DSSCs, respectively. Among the attempts to prevent recombination reactions such as insulating thin layer and lithium ions-doped hole transport materials and introduction of co-adsorbents, although co-adsorbents retard the recombination reactions as hydrophobic energy barriers, little attention has been focused on the anchoring processes. Molecular engineering of heterogeneous interfaces by employing several co-adsorbents with different properties altered the surface properties of $TiO_2$ electrodes, resulting to the improved power conversion efficiency and long-term stability of the DSSCs. In this talk, advantages of the coadsorbent-assisted sensitization of N719 in preparation of DSSCs will be discussed.

본 연구는 이산화탄소에 대한 화학적 흡수공정의 새로운 흡수제로서 글리신 수용액의 화학적 특성과 흡수성능을 고찰하였다. 이산화탄소 흡수에 관여하는 작용기인 아미노기를 활성화시키기 위해 세 종류의 알칼리원소(Na, Li, K)를 선택하여 글리신에 함침시켰다. 제조한 흡수제에 대한 IR 분석결과, 글리신 수용액의 암모늄이온(${-NH_{3}}^+,\;1600cm^{-1}$,single )형태로 존재하던 작용기가 아미노기($-NH_2,\;1550{\sim}1650\;cm^{-1}$, scissoring)형태로 전환된 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, $^{1}H-NMR$과 $^{13}C-NMR$ 분석결과, 금속 양이온의 치환에 의한 염화현상(salting)으로 기존 글리신에서의 수소와 탄소원자의 화학적 이동의 차이를 확인할 수 있었다. 즉, 치환된 금속의 전기 음성도에 따라 리튬염, 나트륨염 그리고 칼륨염 순으로 화학적 이동이 나타났다. 한편 상온에서의 이산화탄소 흡수량은 비교대상인 1차 아민이 가장 높았으며, 나트륨 글리신염, 리튬 글리신염, 칼륨 글리신염 순으로 나타났다. 그러나 연소공정 배출가스 내 이산화탄소 포집을 가정하여 온도상승($40,\;60,\;80^{\circ}C$)에 따른 실험결과, 나트륨 글리신염이 MEA보다 높은 흡수량을 보였다.
