본 연구에서는 Poly(VdF-HFP)를 사용한 Gel Polymer 전해질을 제작하여 기존의 액상전해질과 비교하였다. 제작된 젤 고분자 전해질의 성분은 FTIR 분석을 사용하여 화학적 구조를 고찰한 후, 성분조사를 통해 Gel Polymer 전해질임을 확인하였으며, SEM 관측을 통해 Polymer 상태의 Gel 전해질의 구조를 확인하였다. 본 실험에서 제작된 젤 고분자 전해질을 구성하는 DEC와 PC의 최적의 성분비는 5 : 5임을 확인할 수 있었다. 최적조건의 젤 고분자전해질을 이용하여 제작된 염료 태양전지(DSCs)의 효율은 $3{\sim}4[%]$정도의 측정값을 얻었으며, 이상의 결과로부터 기존의 액상 전해질을 대체할 수 있는 준 고체형 염료태양전지의 제작이 가능함이 확인되었다.

We introduced a new UV-cured resin polymer gel as an electrolyte for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) that is cured with UV irradiation to form a thin film of UV-cured resin polymer gel in the cells. The gel film was characterized and its potential for use as an electrolyte in DSSCs was investigated. This new UV-cured resin polymer gel was successfully applied as a gel polymer electrolyte in DSSCs overcoming the problems associated with the liquid electrolytes in typical DSSCs. The effect of ${\gamma}$-butylrolactone (GBL) on the long-term stability and photovoltaic performance in DSSCs using this UV-cured resin polymer gel electrolyte was also investigated. The results of the energy conversion efficiency, ionic conductivity and Raman spectra of the UV-cured resin polymer gel electrolyte with the addition of 6 wt % GBL to the UV-cured resin polymer electrolyte showed good long-term stability and photovoltaic performance for the DSSCs with the UV-cured polymer gel electrolyte.

The capacity and long life of gel electrolyte batteries is connected with gas recombination producting $PbO_2$ and Pb electrode. We prepared with sulfuric acid gel electrolyte to know gel characteristics per density to assemble valve regulated lead-acid (VRLA) batteries. We studied on actions of sulphuric acid gel electrolyte by measuring electrolyte dispersion using Brewster-angle microscope (BAM), charge-discharge cycle, and electrode structure using scanning election microscope (SEM). Sulphuric acid density 1.210 showed excellent gel dispersion in sol condition, electrode condition after fifty cycles in this study.

With nano-$SiO_2$ and sulphate acid, a kind of colloid electrolyte is synthesized by sol-gel method. It is placed outside the reference electrode as a layer of gel electrolyte so as to decrease the leaching of $Cu^{2+}$ and increase the life of the reference electrode. The performance of the gel electrode in simulating soil solution is measured as follows: the potential of the electrodes ranging from 60 mV to 80 mV (vs. SCE) with potential variation no more than $\pm10mV$, enough resistance to polarization. The $Cu^{2+}$ effusion rate of the reference electrode without gel electrolyte is 3 times that with colloid electrolyte, which means that gel electrolyte can extend the life of the reference electrode significantly.

We have reported to make nanostructured cobalt oxide electrode that have large capacitance over than 400 F/g (specific capacitance) and good cycleability. But, it had serious demerits of low voltage range under 0.5 V and low power density. Therefore, we need to increase voltage range of cobalt oxide electrode. We report here on the electrochemical properties of sol-gel-derived nanoparticulate cobalt xerogel in 1M KOH solution and aqueous polymeric gel electrolyte. In solution electrolyte, cobalt oxide electrode had over 250 F/g capacitance consisted of EDLC and pseudocapacitance. In gel electrolyte, cobalt oxide electrode had around 100 F/g capacitance. This capacitance was only electric double layer capacitance of active surface area. In solution electrolyte, potassium ion as working ion reacted with both of layers easily. However, In gel electrolyte, reacted with only surface-active layer. Itis very hard to reach resistive layer. So, we have studied on pretreatment of electrode to contain working ions easily. We'll report more details.

The optimum polymer gel electrolyte composition ratio was 23 : 66 : 11 wt% of P(VdF-co-HFP) : PVP =20 : 3), (PC: EC =44 : 22) and TEABF$_4$. And the optimal thickness of polymer gel electrolyte was 50 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The electrochemical characteristics result of unit cell were 31.41 Fig of specific capacitance, and 3.21$\times$10$^{-3}$ S/cm of ion conductivity. Ion conductivity of polymer gel electrolytes decreased according to added PVP through impedance analysis, and it was higher in 7 wt%, but electrochemical characteristics of unit cell were better in 3 wt% PVP. And for excellent ion conductivity of polymer gel electrolytes, the use of a thin layer electrolyte(20 $\mu\textrm{m}$) was an effective method, but with unit cell application, the best thickness was 50 $\mu\textrm{m}$. Unit cell showed higher capacitance and more stable electrochemical performance when hot pressed between polymer gel electrolyte and electrode. This results from enhancement of the physical contact between the electrode and the polymer gel electrolyte and good accessibility of the liquid electrolyte to the electrode surface.

태양광 또는 풍력을 이용해 발생된 에너지를 효율적으로 저장과 사용을 위한 납 축전지의 성능을 향상 시키기 위해 전해액을 Semi-gel화 하여 납축전지에 적용하여 시험한 결과, 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. Semi-gel 전해액은 silica를 5wt.% 혼합한 전해액이 1시간 30분경과 시 gel화가 시작되었다. 이는 전해액이 격리판과 극판 활물질 내부까지 완전히 스며들기에 충분한 시간으로 가장 적정한 gel화 시간을 나타내었다. Semi-gel 전해액을 사용한 납축전지와 액상 전해액을 사용한 납축전지의 방전 성능을 비교한 결과, 저율방전 성능은 semi-gel전해액이, 고율방전 성능은 액상 전해액이 높은 성능을 나타내었다. 이는 gel 전해액의 경우 액상 전해액에 비해 반응속도가 느려 고율방전 성능이 낮은 것으로 나타내었다. 수명성능을 DOD 10%, DOD 100%로 시험한 결과, 5%-silica 전해액이 액상 전해액을 사용한 납축전지에 비해 우수한 수명 성능을 나타내었다. 이는 Semi-gel상 태의 전해액이 납축전지 내부 화학반응 시 발생하는 gas의 재결합 효율을 높여 전해액 감액량이 최소화로 한 결과로 수명성능에서 큰 차이를 나타내었다. 태양광, 풍력 등과 같은 에너지 저장 효율을 높이고, 수명성능을 향상시키기 위해 전해액에 5%-silica전해액을 사용하면 전해액의 감액량이 최소로 되어 DOD 100% 수명시험의 경우 4.8%, DOD 10% 수명시험의 경우 20%의 수명성능이 향상되었다.
