流りゅう 用よう 流用 means 'diversion' or 'misappropriation' of funds, implying a change from the original intended use, whereas 充用 is neutral and simply means allocating for a specific purpose.
Etymology Compound of 充 (じゅう, 'fill; allocate') and 用 (よう, 'use; purpose'). The exact historical derivation is uncertain, but the kanji combination conveys the idea of filling a need or assigning something to a use.
