The water absorption in protective coatings, which may greatly influence the durability of these coatings, was studied using quartz crystal microbalance and electrochemical impedance technique. The water absorption in protective coatings and the change of coating capacitance with concentration of electrolyte were measured. The water absorption in coatings seems to be driven by osmotic pressure, and larger amount of water was absorbed in thinner coatings at initial stage of absorption. The amount of water absorbed in coatings changed with the type and crosslinking density of resin used in coating formulation. When water absorption and desorption of coating occured by exposing the coatings to electrolyte solutions of different concentration, increase in impedance caused by desorption of water was found to be higher in the case of thinner film.

The absorption of water into an anti-corrosive organic coating, such as alkyd and urethane resin coating, was investigated, using a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). Anticorrosive properties of the coatings were also measured, by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The overall absorption of water in the coating is determined by the chemical nature of resin, and decreases with increasing thickness. The enhancement of anti-corrosive performance, through increase of coating thickness, was more remarkable in the case of the coating that hadlower equilibrium water absorption. The absorption kinetics curves were Fickian in nature. The EIS analysis confirmed that the resin, having lower equilibrium water absorption, shows higher anti-corrosive performan.

The electrochemical study has been enjoyed in many areas of chemistry. Through this approach using electrochemical measurement, empirical HOMO and LUMO values can be calculated by three methods such as absorption measurement, cyclicvoltammetry and computational calculations. In this study, 1,3-bisdicyanovinylindane was prepared and investigated toward its optical properties. The absorption intensities were changed depending on changes of pH. These absorption changes are induced by resonance form of 1,3-bisdicyanovinylindane. The electron delocalization in ${\pi}$ system is related to the resonance form. In according to this electron density distribution and HOMO/LUMO values of 1,3-bisdicyanovinylindane were simulated and calculated by Material Studio 4.3, absorption measurement and cyclicvoltammograms. The 1,3-bisdicyanovinylindane is one of the most attracted acceptor units in D-${\pi}$-A system. This attempt is useful to determine more detailed characteristics of the energy potentials.

Deformation on shapes of the hydrogen absorption metal in this paper was investigated on hydrogen absorption-desorption cycling. In order to study this problem, the cold rolled palladium plate and the cold extrusion palladium bar as specimens had been used. By using the electrochemical method, the palladium specimens were cyclically hydrogenated in the 0.1 mol H$_2$SO$_4$ electrolyte. As results, it is noted that the thickness of the plate specimen gradually increased in increasing hydrogenation cycles whereas the width and the length decreased. But both the diameter and the length of the bar specimen increased with increasing hydrogenation cycles. Also, grains in the plate specimen were greatly deformed after hydrogenation cycling whereas internal grains in the bar specimen were pulverized. And deterioration of the hydrogen absorption rate of the bar specimen was lager than the plate specimen.

A rectifying heterojunction consisting of polyparaphenylene(PPP) and polypyrrole(PPY) films was prepared by the electrochemical method. The photoresponse in the heterojunction of PPY and PPP is similar to the absorption spectrum of undoped PPP. This fact suggests that photoresponse depends strongly upon polyparaphenylene of semiconductor. The fill-factor was calculated from the photo current-voltage curve to be 0.19, which is relatively small compared to polyacetylene-polythiophene heterojunctions.

Rhodamine dyes have been studied in various scientific areas due to their excellent photophysical properties. In particular, these rhodamine dyes are one of the most famous fluorophores as signal unit in chemosensor study. This is related to spirolactam ring system in rhodamine dyes. When the spirolactam ring is closed, there is nonfluorescence and colorless. Whereas, ring-opening of the corresponding spirolactam induces strong fluorescence and color. These absorption and emission changes are related to structural changes as well as electron energy potential levels such as HOMO and LUMO values. In this study, two different structures of rhodamine 6G hydrazide depending on the spirolactam ring system were investigated using absorption measurement, electrochemical measurement and computational calculations.

The corrosion behavior of aluminum pad coated with epoxy molding compound (EMC) was investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The impedance change was evaluated by the absorption of deionized water (DI water) to EMC coating and the interface between EMC and aluminum. During the absorption a decrease in resistance and thus an increase in capacitance of EMC as well as the interface of EMC/Al could be observed. Up to about 170 hours of absorption the EMC was saturated with the water molecules and ions generated from EMC. Subsequently the ionic water was penetrated to the interface and finally the corrosion of aluminum was occurred by the Dl water and ions. From measuring the adhesion strength with the Dl water absorption it was expected that the saturation of water and ions in the interface decreased the adhesion strength. The higher filler content of EMC should be necessary to inhibit the corrosion of aluminum electrode in microelectronic packages.
