The electrolyte added the chlorosulfuric acid ($HSO_3Cl$) as an additive was tested for the electrolyte in all-vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) to increase the thermal stability of electrolyte. The electrolyte property was measured by the CV (cyclic voltammetry) method. The maximum value of a voltage and current density in the electrolyte added $HSO_3Cl$ was higher than that in the electrolyte non-added $HSO_3Cl$. The thermal stability of the pentavalent vanadium ion solution, which was tested at $40^{\circ}C$, increased by adding $HSO_3Cl$. The performances of VRFB using the electrolyte added and non-added $HSO_3Cl$ were measured during 30 cycles of charge-discharge at the current density of $60mA/cm^2$. An average energy efficiency of the VRFB was 72.5%, 82.4%, and 81.6% for the electrolyte non-added $HSO_3Cl$, added 0.5 mol of $HSO_3Cl$, and added 1.0 mol of $HSO_3Cl$, respectively. VRFB using the electrolyte added $HSO_3Cl$ was showed the higher performance than that using the electrolyte non-added $HSO_3Cl$.

The present study shows that DR1114 (Hsp20), a small heat shock protein of the radiation-resistant bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans, enhances tolerance to hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) stress when expressed in Escherichia coli. A protein profile comparison showed that E. coli cells overexpressing D. radiodurans Hsp20 (EC-pHsp20) activated the redox state proteins, thus maintaining redox homeostasis. The cells also showed increased expression of pseudouridine (psi) synthases, which are important to the stability and proper functioning of structural RNA molecules. We found that the D. radiodurans mutant strain, which lacks a psi synthase (DR0896), was more sensitive to $H_2O_2$ stress than wild type. These suggest that an increased expression of proteins involved in the control of redox state homeostasis along with more stable ribosomal function may explain the improved tolerance of EC-pHsp20 to $H_2O_2$ stress.

Electron transfer of a redox protein at a bare gold electrode is too slow to observe the redox peaks. A novel Nafion-riboflavin functional membrane was constructed during this study and electron transfer of cytochrome c, superoxide dismutase, and hemoglobin were carried out on the functional membrane-modified gold electrode with good stability and repeatability. The immobilized protein-modified electrodes showed quasireversible electrochemical redox behaviors with formal potentials of 0.150, 0.175, and 0.202 V versus Ag/AgCl for the cytochrome c, superoxide dismutase and hemoglobin, respectively. Whole experiment was carried out in the 50 mM MOPS buffer solution with pH 6.0 at 25 oC. For the immobilized protein, the cathodic transfer coefficients were 0.67, 0.68 and 0.67 and electron transfer-rate constants were evaluated to be 2.25, 2.23 and 2.5 s?1, respectively. Hydrogen peroxide concentration was measured by the peroxidase activity of hemoglobin and our experiment revealed that the enzyme was fully functional while immobilized on the Nafion-riboflavin membrane.

Association of cytochrome c with anionic membranes involved both electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions and their relative contributions depended on the physical state of the membrane and the redox state of cyto-chromec.Hydrophobic interaction was favored by the membranes in gel phase, by the membranes with a large curvature, and by the membranes with a high surface charge density. Ferrocytochrome c was less dissociable by NaCl than ferricytochrome c suggesting that a lower protein stability is beneficial for hydrophobic interac-tion.Hydrophobic interaction induced larger structural perturbations on cytochrome c as monitored by the loss of the Fe-Met bond and by the increase in the distance between heme and Trp-59. When bound to anionic mem-branes,spin-labeled cytochrome c showed an electron paramagnetic resonance spectrum with two or more components, providing a direct evidence for multiple conformations of bound cytochrome c.

본 연구에서는 음극 활물질로 폴리옥소메탈에이트(polyoxometalate, POM)인 포스포몰리브 산(phosphomolybdic acid)와 양극 활물질로 페로시아나이드(ferrocyanide)를 지지 전해질인 수산화나트륨 수용액을 이용하여 산화환원 흐름 전지(redox flow battery, RFB)를 구성하였다. 다양한 농도의 수산화나트륨 수용액(1.0 M, 1.2 M, 1.4 M, 1.5 M, 1.6 M)을 이용하여 배터리의 성능테스트를 진행하였으며, 각 물질에 대한 전기화학적 특성과 안정성에 대해 연구하였다. 지지 전해질의 농도는 음극 활물질인 포스포몰리브 산에 영향을 주며 최적 값이 존재하고 농도가 증가할수록 전해질 저항이 줄어들게 되며 1.5 M에서 가장 줄어드는 현상을 확인하였고 1.6 M로 농도가 증가할 시 전해질 저항이 다시 증가한다는 것을 확인하였다. 전해질 저항의 감소는 전체 에너지 효율에도 영향을 주어 농도가 증가됨에 따라 효율은 증가하며 1.5 M에서 가장 좋은 배터리 성능을 보인다는 것을 확인하였다.

Over a few decades, copper radioisotopes and their chelation chemistry for radiopharmaceuticals have played crucial role in the radiopharmaceutical science area. A variety of chelators have been required for their stable targeting ability in physiological conditions. For radiolabeling with copper-64 into biomolecules, thermodynamic stability, kinetic inertness, pH stability, and redox stability should be considered. In this regard, many researchers have attempted to develop the chelators that can bind with copper more tightly, rapidly and stably for copper radiolabeling. This review discusses the chemistry of copper, its suitable chelators and characteristics, while elucidating the evaluations of each chelator for radiolabeling.

바나듐 산화환원 흐름 전지에 핵심적으로 사용되는 이온교환막은 일반적으로 양이온교환막을 사용하고 있으나 co-ion인 바나듐 이온의 투과에 의한 장기적 성능 저하 문제를 해결하기 어렵다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 바나듐 투과도 및 장기 운전 안정성의 특성을 파악하기 위해 세 가지 다른 관능기를 보유한 음이온교환막을 제조하였다. 기저막으로는 다공성 폴리에틸렌 필름에 benzyl chloride (VBC)과 divinylbenzene (DVB)을 충진 및 가교 중합하여 제조한 후, 세 가지 다른 아민 관능기를 각각 도입하였다. 제조된 음이온교환막들에 대해 바나듐 이온 투과 정도 및 장기 운전 안정성을 관찰한 결과 triethylamine을 관능기로 적용한 음이온교환막에서 높은 에너지효율을 유지하면서도 가장 장기적 운전 안정성을 확보할 수 있었다.

전 바나듐 레독스 흐름 전지(VRFB)는 유망한 대용량 에너지 저장 기술 중 하나이다. 이온교환막은 VRFB의 충·방전 성능 및 내구성을 좌우하는 핵심 구성 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 기존 탄화수소계 이온교환막의 단점을 보완하기 위해 우수한 물리적 및 화학적 안정성을 갖는 다공성 폴리테트라플루오로에틸렌(PTFE) 지지체의 세공에 불소부가 포함된 탄화수소계 이오노머를 충진하는 방식으로 세공충진 음이온교환막(PFAEMs)을 제조하였다. 얇은 다공성 PTFE 지지체의 사용으로 전기적 저항을 현저히 낮출 수 있었으며 PTFE 지지체의 사용과 더불어 충진 이오노머에 불소부를 도입함으로써 막의 산화 안정성을 크게 향상시킬 수 있었다. 충·방전 성능 평가 결과, PFAEM에 불소부의 함량이 증가할수록 높은 전류 효율을 나타내었으며 낮은 전기적 저항으로 상용막 대비 우수한 전압 효율 및 에너지 효율을 보였다. 또한, 산화 안정성 및 충·방전성능의 관점에서 소수성 PTFE 지지체의 사용이 더 바람직함을 확인하였다.

레독스-흐름 2차전지는 발전소의 잉여전력, 태양전지 및 전기자동차 등 응용 분야가 넓은 유망한 에너지 저장 방법의 하나이다[1,2]. Fe-Cr계 2차전지와 비교하여 수소 가스의 발생이 없고 양쪽 액의 확산에의한 혼합으로 전지의 용량이 떨어지지 않고 rebalance의 필요가 없는 등 많은 장점을 가지고 있으며 조작이 간단하며 기전력 (1,4 V)과 에너지 밀도가 높기 때문에 compact화가 가능하다[1].
