경유는 연료전지 시스템의 연료원으로써 주목받고 있는 탄화수소 액체연료 중 하나로, 연료개질 촉매와 연료전지의 전극재료를 피독시키는 황화합물을 포함하고 있어 탈황공정이 필요한 것으로 여겨지고 있다. 다양하고도 대안적인 탈황기술이 연구되고 있으나, 초저유황 경유의 탈황 연구는 여전히 부진한 실정이다. 본 연구는 용융탄산염 연료전지 시스템에 응용될 수 있는 원료인 상용초저유황 경유의 탈황에 관한 것이다. 여기서 초저유황의 흡착탈황을 위한 흡착제로 활성탄, 제올라이트, 금속산화물 계 상용흡착제 후보군이 선정되었고 유망한 탈황제를 찾기 위한 스크리닝 평가를 실시하였다. 그 결과 초저유황 경유의 황농도를 0.1 ppmw 수준까지 떨어뜨리기 위한 흡착제 종류로 금속산화물계가 매우 유용하며, 활성탄과 제올라이트 흡착제는 같은 실험조건에서 해당 수준의 황 농도에 이르지 못하는 것으로 나타났다.

Lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs) have emerged as a promising alternative to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) owing to their high energy density and economic viability. In addition, all-solid-state LSBs, which use solid-state electrolytes, have been proposed to overcome the polysulfide shuttle effect while improving safety. However, the high interfacial resistance and poor ionic conductivity exhibited by the electrode and solid-state electrolytes, respectively, are significant challenges in the development of these LSBs. Herein, we apply a poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO)-based composite solid-state electrolyte with oxide Li₇La₃Zr₂O₁₂ (LLZO) solid-state electrolyte in an all-solid-state LSB to overcome these challenges. We use an electrochemical method to evaluate the degradation of the all-solid-state LSB in accordance with the carbon content and loading weight within the cathode. The all-solid-state LSB, with sulfur-carbon content in a ratio of 3:3, exhibited a high initial discharge capacity (1386 mAh g^-1), poor C-rate performance, and capacity retention of less than 50%. The all-solid-state LSB with a high loading weight exhibited a poor overall electrochemical performance. The factors influencing the electrochemical performance degradation were revealed through systematic analysis.

The redox properties of 2-mercaptopyridine N-oxide (mpno) and its oxovanadium complex, $VO (mpno)_2$ have been studied by the use of polarography and cyclic voltammetry. The radical anion of mpno is generated in acetone and is adsorbed to the electrode to form an adsorption wave at -0.21 V vs Ag/AgCl electrode. The normal wave appeared at -0.50 V is attributed to the formation of radical anion. The $VO (mpno)_2$ exhibits one oxidation wave at +0.57 V, and two reduction waves at -1.07 V and -1.76 V vs. Ag/AgCl electrode; the oxidation is fully reversible one-electron process ($VO (mpno)_2\;{\leftrightarrow}\;VO(mpno)_2^+ + e).$ The reduction wave at -1.07 V is quasireversible and is arised from the formation of $VO (mpno)_2^-.$ The second reduction wave at -1.76 V is irreversible and this reduction process consists of two one-electron steps. The sulfur containing ligands seem to enhance the stability of lower oxidation state of vanadium while the oxygen or nitrogen donor of the ligands stabilize the higher oxidation state of vanadium when comparisons are made among several oxovanadium complexes.

Two sorts of electrode composed of Sulpur/CNT/PVDF and Silver/CNT/PVDF were prepared by in situ chemical method and their electrochemical performance were evaluated by using cyclic voltammetry, impedance measurement and constant-current charge/discharge cycling technique. Also, composite electrodes were characterized by FE-SEM and BET. Raw materials such as CNT/Silver and CNT/Sulfur were mixed in ethanol, dried. These mixed materials were heated at 900 and $320^{\circ}C$ for 2hr, respectively in order to enhance contact among CNT electrodes. Electric double layer capacitor cells were fabricated using these mixed powder with polymer of PVDF. For the charging and discharging characteristics measured at scan rate of 1 mA/s, Supercapacitor of Sulphur-CNT-PVDF electrode showed a better performance than that of Ag-CNT-PVDF, which seems to be related with lower contact resistance of Sulphur-CNT-PVDF electrode.

리튬-황 전지의 기능성 중간층으로 그래핀과 Mo₂C/Mo₂N 나노입자로 구성된 나노섬유(Mo₂C/Mo₂N rGO NFs)를 사용하였다. Mo₂C/Mo₂N 나노입자는 섬유 구조 내 고르게 분산되어 리튬 폴리설파이드의 화학적 흡착을 위한 활성 사이트 역할을 함으로써 전해질로의 용출을 효과적으로 억제하였다. 또한 구조 내 매트릭스로 구성된 그래핀 나노시트는 충방전이 진행되는 동안 이온 및 전자의 빠른 이동을 보장할 뿐만 아니라 반응 시 산화/환원 반응을 원활하게 하여 높은 리튬 폴리설파이드의 재사용을 보장하였다. 그 결과 Mo₂C/Mo₂N rGO NFs로 코팅된 분리막을 기능성 중간층으로 사용, 순수 황 전극(황 함량 70 wt%, 황 로딩 2.1 mg cm^-2)으로 제작된 리튬-황 전지는 0.1 C에서 400회 충방전 후 476 mA h g^-1의 안정적인 방전 용량을 나타냈으며, 1.0 C의 높은 전류밀도에서도 574 mA h g^-1의 방전용량을 나타내었다. 본 연구에서 제안된 나노구조체 합성 전략은 고성능 리튬-황 전지 용 기능성 중간층 및 다양한 에너지 저장 소재분야로의 확장이 가능하다.

많은 금속이온들에 대한 킬레이트시약으로 알려진 2-Amino-1-cyclopentene-1-dithiocarboxylate (acdc) 음이온의 전기화학적 거동을 직류 폴라로 그래피, 순환 전압전류법 및 양극 벗김 전압 전류법을 사용하여 수용액 및 아세톤 용액에서 각각 조사하였다. 수용액에서 glassy carbon 전극을 사용하였을 때 +0.25V vs. SCE에서 1전자 산화반응을 거쳐 acdc의 이합체가 생성됨을 확인하였으며 이 이합체는 glassy carbon 전극 표면에 석출되어 흡착이 일어남을 알 수 있었다. 이 흡착된 이합체가 +0.80V에서 2전자 산화반응을 거쳐 S가 한원자 유리된 고리를 형성하는 반응이 일어남을 알았다. 이러한 이합체 생성반응을 이용하여 이 화합물의 흡착성 양극 벗김 전압전류법에 의한 분석법을 조사하였다. 직류폴라로그래피를 사용한 벗김 전압-전류법에 의해 검량선을 얻은 결과 3${\times}10^{-5}{\sim}1.0{\times}10^{-6}$M 사이에서 좋은 직선성을 얻을 수 있었으며 확산 전류를 사용한 분석법에 비해 약 100배 가량 분석감도가 증진됨을 알 수 있었다. 이 때 검출한계는 $2.5{\times}10^{-7}$M 이었으며 $5.0{\times}10^{-6}$M 에서의 상대표준편차는 ${\pm}$4.1 % 이었다.

Polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) performance degrade when sulfur dioxide is present in the fuel hydrogen gas, this is referred as $SO_2$ poisoning. This paper reveals $SO_2$ poisoning on PEMFC cathode part by measuring electrical performance of single cell under 1 ppm and 5 ppm on $SO_2$ gas operating. The security of $SO_2$ poisoning depended on $SO_2$ concentration under the best operating conditions($65^{\circ}C$ of cell temperature and 100% of relative humidity between anode and cathode). $SO_2$ adsorption occured on the surface of catalyst layer on membrane electrode assembly (MEA), In addition, MEA poisoning by $SO_2$ was cumulative but reversible. After poisoning within 5 ppm $SO_2$ for 1hr, the electrical performance of PEMFC was found to recover up to about 93% by cyclic voltametry scan.

Sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆) gas is used widely in electric power equipment such as Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS), Gas Insulation transmission Line (GIL), and Gas Circuit Breaker (GCB). But applications of SF₆ should be restricted because SF6 gas is one of the greenhouse effect gases. To reduce use of SF₆ gas, a study on eco-friendly alternative insulation medium is needed. In this paper, we investigated lightning impulse (LI) breakdown of dry-air which is attracting attention as an ecofriendly alternative gas and the LI breakdown of hybrid insulation combined with dry-air and solid insulation (Room-Temperature Vulcanizing Silicone Rubber-RTV SIR) and dry-air in inhomogeneous fields according to gap distance and pressure. The experiment results showed that the LI breakdown strength of hybrid insulation system was higher than that of dry-air insulation system. It was verified that the development of technology related to eco-friendly power apparatus compact such GIS, GCB and GIL can be used as basic research data.

This paper describes a two-step approach for the electrochemical deposition of CdZnS thin films on the polycrystalline Au electrode. Initially, an Au substrate is electrochemically modified with a sulfur layer. In the second step, the layer is electroreduced to $S^{2-}$ in the electrolyte dosed with the requisite amount of $Cd^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ ions to generate CdZnS films in situ. This approach was validated using a combination of linear sweep voltammetry and electrochemical quartz crystal microgravimetry. Thus synthesized CdZnS thin films have different composition depending on the composition of electrolytes. CdZnS thin films are characterized by energy-dispersive X-ray analysis and Raman spectroscopy.

New gas mixtures are now finding applications such as interrupting media for high-voltage circuit breakers. These mixtures consist of a high content of carbon tetrafluoride($CF_4$) added to sulfur hexafluoride($SF_6$). Nowdays $SF_6$ has been established for the use in gas insulated substations due to its high insulation withstand level and good arc quenching capability. At this paper Breakdown characteristics were investigated for $SF_6/CF_4$ mixtures when AC voltage and standard lightning impulse voltage(LI) was applied in a needle-plane electrodes. And partial discharge(PD) experiments were carried out in the test chamber which was made in needle-plane electrode. And ${\Phi}$-Q-N distribution of partial discharge signals was analyzed. The total pressure of the $SF_6/CF_4$ mixtures was varied within the range of 0.1-0.5 Mpa in the test chamber. The breakdown voltage in needle-plane electrode displayed N shape characteristics for increasing the content of $SF_6$ at positive impulse voltage and the PD inception voltage was increased slightly when pressure of $SF_6/CF_4$ Mixtures was increased. Maximum PD inception voltage is showed in 80% SF6/20%$CF_4$.
