The molten carbonate fuel cell has conspicuous feature and high potential in being used as an energy converter of various fuel to electricity and heat. However, the MCFC which use strongly corrosive molten carbonate at 650$^{\circ}C$ have many problem. Systematic investigation on corrosion behavior of Fe/20Cr/Ti alloys has been done in (62+38)mol% (Li+K)CO$_3$ melt at 923K by using steady state polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy method. And, The research and development for the solid oxide fuel cell have been promoted rapidly and extensively in recent years, because of their high efficiency and future potential. Therefore this paper describes the manufacturing method and characteristics of anode electrode for SOFC, by the way, Ni-YSZ materials are used as anode of SOFC widely. So in this experiments, we investigated the optimum content of Ni, by the impedance characteristics, overvoltage. As a result, the performance of Ni-YSZ anode(47vo1%) was bettor excellent than the others.

Nano-fibers of the $Li[Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}]O_2$ electrode were synthesized from a metal oxide precursor using the electrospun method. The XRD patterns of all prepared powders showed a hexagonal ${\alpha}$ - $NaFeO_2$ structure (space group: R-3 m, 166). Scanning electron microscopy showed that all the synthesized samples were comprised of nanofibers with a size of 100~800 nm. Among the samples tested, the calcined $Li[Ni_{1/3}Co_{1/3}Mn_{1/3}]O_2$ nanowires in oxygen heating atmosphere showed a high charge and discharge capacity of 239.22 and 172.81 $mAhg^{-1}$ at the $1^{st}$ cycle, respectively. In addition, the charge transfer resistance was also improved significantly compared to the other samples.

In this paper, investigations of thick film $La_{0.75}Sr_{0.25}Ga_{0.8}Mg_{0.16}Fe_{0.04}O_{3-{\delta}}$ (LSGMF) cells fabricated via spin coating on either NiO-YSZ anode or $La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}Ga_{0.6}Fe_{0.4}O_3$ (LSGF) cathode substrates are presented. A La-doped $CeO_2$ (LDC) layer is inserted between NiO-YSZ and LSGMF in order to prevent reactions from occurring during co-firing. For the LSGF cathode-supported cell, no interlayer was required because the components of the cathode are the same as those of LSGMF with the exception of Mg. An LSGMF electrolyte slurry was deposited homogeneously on the porous supports via spin coating. The current-voltage characteristics of the anode and cathode supported LSGMF cells at temperatures between $700^{\circ}C$ and $850^{\circ}C$ are described. The LSGF cathode supported cell demonstrates a theoretical OCV and a power density of ~420 mW $cm^2$ at $800^{\circ}C$, whereas the NiO-YSZ anode supported cell with the LDC interlayer demonstrates a maximum power density of ~350 mW $cm^2$ at $800^{\circ}C$, which decreased more rapidly than the cathode supported cell despite the presence of the LDC interlayer. Potential causes of the degradation at temperatures over $700^{\circ}C$ are also discussed.

In this study, a positive-electrode material in a lithium secondary battery $Li[Ni_{0.575}Co_{0.1}Mn_{0.325}]O_2$ was synthesized as precursor by co-precipitation. Cathode material was synthesized by adding iron. The synthesized cathode material was analyzed by scanning electron microscope and x-ray diffraction. The analysis of x-ray diffraction showed that the a-axis and c-axis is increased by doping iron. And $I_{(003)}/I_{(104)}$ is increased and $I_{(006)}+I_{(102)}/I_{(101)}$ is decreased. Through this result, it was confirmed that the structural stability is improved. And impedance measurements show that the charge transfer resistance ($R_{ct}$) is lowered by doping iron. Consequently, electrochemical properties are improved by doping iron. In particular, the cycle characteristics are improved at a high temperature condition (328 K). Structural stabilities are contributing to the cycle properties.

As 3V cathode material, a new doping spinel material, LiMn1.6Se0.4O4 powder with a phase-pure polycrystalline was synthesized by a sol-gel method. In spite of Jahn-teller distortion in 3V region($2.4{\sim}3.5V$), the LiMn1.6Se0.4O4 electrode shows no capacity loss. The material in the 3V region initially delivers a discharge capacity of 100mAh/g which increase with cycling to reach 105mAh/g after 90cycles. And 5V cathode material LiNi0.5-xMxMn1.5O4(M=Cr, V, Fe) compounds have been synthesized by sol-gel method. a series of electroactive spinel compounds, LiNi0.5-xMxMn1.5O4(M=Cr, V, Fe) has been studied by crystallographic and electrochemical methods. The material presents only one plateau at around 4.5 V vs. Li/Li+ with a large discharge capacity of 152mAh/g and fairly good cyclability.

Nitrogen in the form of nitrate was electrochemically reduced with different cathode materials including Fe, Ni, Cu, and Zn. Zn cathode shows the greatest electrocatalytic activity on the transformation of nitrate ions into ammonia and the $NO_3^-$ removal efficiency has highest value at pH 8.5. Nitrogen in the form of nitrate was initially reduced into nitrite and sequentially, converted into nitrogen inside $NH_3$. Nitrogen in the form of ammonia was completely removed by the reaction with HOCl.

Sodum bismuth titanate $(Na_{0.5}Bi_{0.5}TiO_3$ or NBT) thin films coated on the $LaNiO_3$ (LNO) electrode by sol-gel methode and rapid thermal annealing (RTA) technique. The NBT (NBT/LNO/Si) thin films examined by x-ray diffraction (XRD). The orientation of NBT was observed for films coated at $900^{\circ}C$, 5 min and $600^{\circ}C$, 60 min. Filed emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) showed uniform surface composed of grains. The grain size of NBT thin films increased with increasing annealing temperature.

The leadframe of thin plate fabricated by stamping method generates a lot of burr and stress in the processing surface because of the mold. The electropolishing equipment was produced in order to increase accuracy and surface roughness for 42%Ni-Fe leadframe. An electrolyte consisted of phosphoric acid, ethylene glycol and deionized water. Experiments were accomplished as polishing conditions were changed such as current density, polishing time, electrode gap and sample shape. The burr from the cutting was eliminated and surface characteristics of high flatness and high luster wre obtained after electropolishing. In addition, the electroplishing had good characteristic in 1.0 A current density and 4㎜ of electrode spaces, and it was affected by the composition of electrolyte and the sample shape.

Nitroso-2-naphthol-3,6-disulfonic acid, disodium salt (NRS) was used as an organic ligand to prepare basic drug-selective polymeric membrane electrode. The sensing membrane of the electrode consited of basic drug-meta1(II)-NRS as an ion-exchanger site in a poly(vinyl chloride) matrix plasticized with 2-nitrophenyl octyl ether (NPOE). The metal ions used were Fe$^{2+}$, Co$^{2+}$, Ni$^{2+}$ and Cu$^{2+}$. The electrodes exhibited fast and wide linear response in the basic drug concentration of 10$^{-5}$ ∼10$^{-3}$ mol/l with a response slope of 50∼60 mV/decade in a buffer solution of pH 4∼8. The electrodes exhibited good selectivity for many basic compounds.mpounds.
