The anodes of RuO2-IrO2-TiO2/Ti were prepared by Pechini method. The surface morphology and electrocatalytic capability of anodes were studied by SEM, EDX, XRD, polarization curve, cyclic voltammetry curve and accelerated life test. It has been shown that the anodes have uniform surface composition, and the surface density of the anodes were increased as the sintering temperature increased, some active elements were crystallization grains at the surface of the anode when sintering temperature ≥500°C. The chlorine evolution capability of anode had a tendency to increase firstly then fall down afterwards as the sintering temperature increased. But the electrocatalytic capability of anodes showed an opposite tendency. The RuO2-IrO2-TiO2/Ti anode prepared at 500°C presents the longest service life.

TiN intermediate layer was prepared by heating treatment of titanium plates under N2 flow at 800°C, and the Ru-Ir-Ti/Ti oxide coating anodes were prepared by pechini method based on the as-prepared Ti/TiN substrate. The properties of the Ru-Ir-Ti/Ti coating anodes with and without TiN intermediate layer, such as microstructure, chlorine evolution, cyclic voltammetry and accelerated life test were investigated. The results show that the method of surface nitriding on titanium-based has not a significant impact on the chlorine evolution and catalytic activity, but has a certain role in the improvement of the anodic accelerated life.

Titanium substrate was etched by oxalic acid and hydrochloric acid respectively. Then the anodes of RuO2-IrO2-TiO2/Ti were prepared by Pechini method. The surface morphology of anodes was studied with SEM, EDX and XRD. The electrocatalytic capability of anodes was studied by polarization curve and cyclic voltammetry curve. The effect of Acid etching process on anode life was studied by accelerated life test. The results show that there was an obvious effect of acid etching on surface morphology of the anodes. The result indicates that the anode with hydrochloric acid etching have the better electrocatalytic capability and accelerated life.

The study of LED reliability becomes more and more important with LED widely used in various areas, and accelerated life test (ALT) as an element of reliability test is widely used to predict the lifetime of LED. In this paper, ALTs have been carried out at various current levels and various temperature levels. In the current ALT experiment, three kinds of stressing currents were demonstrated for 1W white LEDs and lumen flux of the tested LEDs were studied, and based on Eyting model, lifetime of the tested LEDs is calculated about 6.86×105h. In the temperature ALT experiment, two kinds of stressing temperature were demonstrated for the same type of white LEDs and lumen flux were also studied, and based on Arrhenius model, lifetime of the tested LEDs is calculated about 7.41×105h. In addition, the color shifting velocity is faster than lumens depreciation velocity was observed in our experiment, which means the lifetime evaluating of white LED should be paid more attention.
