Lithium salt have been used mainly as electrolyte of thermal battery for electricity storage. Recently, The 3phase lithium salt(LiCl-LiF-LiBr) is tried to use as electrolyte of thermal battery for high electric power. It is reported that LiCl-LiF-LiBr salt have high ion mobility due to its high lithium ion concentration. Solid lithium salt is melt to liquid state at above $500{^{\circ}C}$. The lithium ion is easily reacted with support materials. Because the melted lithium ion has small ion size and high ion mobility. For the increasing mechanical strength of electrolyte pellet, the research was started to apply ceramic filter to support of electrolyte. In this study, authors used SiOC web and glass fiber filter as ceramic mat for support of electrolyte and impregnated LiCl-LiF-LiBr salt into ceramic mat at above $500{^{\circ}C}$. The fabricated electrolyte using ceramic mat was washed with distilled water for removing lithium salt on ceramic mat. The washed ceramic mat was observed for lithium ion reaction behavior with XRD, SEM-EDS and so on.

The electrolyte in the solid oxide fuel cell must be dense enough to avoid gas leakage and thin enough to reduce the ohmic resistance. In order to manufacture the thin and dense electrolyte layer, 8 mol% $Y_2O_3$ stabilized-$ZrO_2$ (8YSZ) electrolyte layers were coated on the porous tubular substrate by the novel vacuum slurry dip-coating process. The effects of the slurry concentration, presintering temperature, and vacuum pressure on the thickness and the gas permeability of the coated electrolyte layers have been examined in the vacuum slurry coating process. The vacuum-coated electrolyte layers showed very low gas permeabilities and had thin thicknesses. The single cell with the vacuum-coated electrolyte layer indicated a good performance of $495\;mW/cm^2$, 0.7 V at $700^{\circ}C$. The experimental results show that the vacuum dip-coating process is an effective method to fabricate dense thin film on the porous tubular substrate.

ANODE-free Li-metal batteries (AFLMBs) operating with Li of cathode material have attracted enormous attention due to their exceptional energy density originating from anode-free structure in the confined cell volume. However, uncontrolled dendritic growth of lithium on a copper current collector can limit its practical application as it causes fatal issues for stable cycling such as dead Li formation, unstable solid electrolyte interphase, electrolyte exhaustion, and internal short-circuit. To overcome this limitation, here, we report a novel dual-salt electrolyte comprising of 0.2 M LiPF₆ + 3.8 M lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide in a carbonate/ester co-solvent with 5 wt% fluoroethylene carbonate, 2 wt% vinylene carbonate, and 0.2 wt% LiNO₃ additives. Because the dual-salt electrolyte facilitates uniform/dense Li deposition on the current collector and can form robust/ionic conductive LiF-based SEI layer on the deposited Li, a Li/Li symmetrical cell exhibits improved cycling performance and low polarization for over 200 h operation. Furthermore, the anode-free LiFePO₄/Cu cells in the carbonate electrolyte shows significantly enhanced cycling stability compared to the counterparts consisting of different salt ratios. This study shows an importance of electrolyte design guiding uniform Li deposition and forming stable SEI layer for AFLMBs.

A low temperature anode-supported tubular solid oxide fuel cell was developed. The anode-supported tube was fabricated using extrusion process. Then the electrolyte layer and the cathode layer were coated onto the anode tube by slurry dipping process, subsequently. The anode tube and electrolyte were co-fired at $140^{\circ}C$, and the cathode was sintered at $1200^{\circ}C$. The thickness and gas permeability of the electrolyte depended on the number of coating and the slurry concentration. Anode-supported tube was satisfied with SOFC requirements, related to electrical conductivity, pore structure, and gas diffusion limitations. At operating temperature of $800^{\circ}C$, open circuit voltage of the cell with gastight and dense electrolyte layer was 1.1 V and the cell showed a good performance of 450 mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

The electrokinetic technology was applied in bioremediation for the purpose of supplying a Pseudomonas strain capable of degrading diesel to contaminated soil bed, and their biodegradation of diesel was carried out after a desired cell distribution was obtained. Electrokinetic injection of the strain was made possible because the cells acted as negatively charged particles at neutral pH, and thus the cells were transported with a precise directionality through the soil mostly by the mechanism of electrophoresis and in part by electroosmosis. A severe pH change in the soil bed was formed due to the penetration of electrolysis products, which was harmful to the cell viability and cell transport. To achieve a desirable cell transport and distribution, the control of pH in soil bed by a recirculating buffer solution in electrode chambers was essential during the appliation of an electric field. The judicious selections of electrolyte concentration and conductivity were also important for achieving an efficient electrokinetic cell transport since a higher electrolyte concentration favored the maintenance of pH stability in soil bed, but lowered electrophoretic mobility on the other hand. With electrolyte solution of pH 7 phosphate buffer, a 0.05 M concentration showed a better cell transport buffer, a 0.05 M concentration showed a better cell transport than 0.02 M and 0.08 M. The cell under pH 8 were obtained, compared to the cells under pH 7 or pH 9 in a given time period Up to $60\%$ of diesel was degraded in 8 days by the Pseudomonas cell, which were distributed electrokinetically under the conditions of pH 8 ($1,800{\mu}S/cm$, a mixture of phosphate and ammonia buffers) and 40 mA in a soil bed of 15 cm length.

자동차 부품에 Zn의 전기도금이 적용되고 있다. Zn 도금은 내식성을 증가시키기 위해 두께를 증가시키고 있다. 도금층의 두께가 증가함에 따라 전기도금 층이 파괴되는 문제가 제기되고 있다. Zn계 합금의 전기도금은 내부식성 향상 및 도금 두께 감소를 위해 연구되어 있다. 여러 합금 도금 중에 Zn-Co 합금 도금은 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 온도, 전류 밀도 및 전해용액 속 Co 함량과 같은 다양한 제조 조건에서 Zn-Co 전착의 조성을 조사하여 시료의 Co 함량에 대한 전기도금 조건의 영향을 파악하였다. 그 결과는 음극 과전압 및 확산 계수에 의해 설명하였다. 전류 밀도가 증가하고, 전해액 온도가 감소하고, 전해액 농도가 감소함에 따라 음극의 과전압이 증가한다. 음극의 과전압이 증가함에 따라 활성화분극보다 농도분극이 중요하게 된다. 농도분극은 확산 층 내에서 물질 전달은 확산에 의해 결정된다. 일정한 농도분극에서는 확산계수가 큰 원소가 다량 확산하게 된다. 즉 음극의 과전압이 증가함에 따라 확산계수가 큰 Zn 함량이 증가한다.

석탄의 종류와 농도 및 CWM의 유동성을 증가시키기 위해 첨가되는 계면활성제와 전해질이 CWM의 유동특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 탄종에 따른 CWM의 점도는 O/C 비가 높을 수록 높게 나타났다. 또한 CWM은 항복응력을 갖는 비뉴톤유체의 특성을 나타내며, 항복응력은 농도가 증가함에 따라 선형적으로 증가하였다. 첨가제로 사용된 계면활성제에 따른 CWM의 유동특성은 첨가되는 계면활성제의 농도에 관계없이 n<1인 pseudoplastic의 특성을 나타내었다. 또한 전해질의 투입량이 증가할수록 n은 1로 접근하여 CWM이 뉴톤유체에 접근하는 것으로 나타났으며, 전해질을 0.05wt.% 이상 첨가하였을 때는 항복응력이 나타나지 않았다.

Copper electroplating has been applied to various fields such as decorative plating and through-hole plating. Technical realization of high strength copper preplating for wear-resistant tools and molds in addition to these applications is the aim of this work. Brighters and levelers, such as MPSA, Gelatin, Thiourea, PEG and JGB, were added in copper sulfate electrolyte, and the effects of these organic additives on the hardness were evaluated. All additives in this work were effective in increasing the hardness of copper electrodeposits. Thiourea increased the hardness up to 350 VHN, and was the most effective accelarator in sulfate electrolyte. It was shown from the X-ray diffraction analysis that preferred orientation changed from (200) to (111) with increasing concentration of organic additives. Crystallite size decreased with increasing concentration of additive. Hardness was increased with decreasing crystallite size, and this result is consistent with Hall-Petch relationship, and it was apparent that the hardening of copper electrodeposits results from the grain refining effect.
