최근 나노기술의 발달과 더불어 나노재료에 대한 특성평가 요구가 높아지고 있고, 따라서 나노스케일에서 재료의 기계적 거동을 분석할 수 있는 나노인덴테이션 기법이 심도있게 연구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 나노인덴테이션, 주사탐침현미경(SPM), 투과전자현미경(TEM) 기법을 이용하여 여러가지 재료의 탄성 소성 변형 거동과 팝인/괍아웃 현상을 조사하고 해석하였다. 나노인덴테이션 기법으로는 50 마이크로뉴턴 (5 mg) 이하의 매우 작은 하중 하에서는 접촉 응력조건이라도 인장시험에서 관찰되는 영구변형이 제로인 완전탄성 변형 거동을 관찰할 수 있었다. 또한, 50-250 마이크로 뉴턴의 하중 범위에서 재료는 탄성변형 이후에 갑작스런 항복거동과 더불어 수십-수백 나노미터를 미끌어지듯 변형하는 팝인(pop-in), 또는 탈선(excursion) 현상을 관찰할 수 있었다. 이 현상은 하중을 가하는 동안에 여러 번 발생하였으며 재료의 표면상태와 전위밀도와 밀접한 상관관계를 보였다. 반복 압입 시험에서는 전형적인 가공경화 현상으로 항복점이 높아지고 새로운 항복점 이후에야 다시 팝인 발생함을 보였다. 한편, 하중을 가할 때 발생하는 팝인과는 달리 하중을 제거할 때 급격히 회복하는 팝아웃 현상 또한 관찰되었다.

Coal ash has been used as a sand replacement in the construction industry. Due to the use of bituminous coal as a result of anthracite depletion, and quicklime as an air purifier in the desulfurization process, pop-out defects have recently occurred in concrete using coal ash, severely limiting the recycling of coal ash into concrete. In this study, the components that cause the pop-out problem of the coal ash filled concrete were identified and a pretreatment method to fully expand the expansive components in advance was proposed as a solution to this problem. By treating water twice for 10 min, allowing the CaO mixed in the coal ash to fully expand, the problems of pop-out and reduced compressive strength of the concrete were overcome. The cost and time efficient water treatment method proposed in this study is expected to promote the recycling of coal ash into concrete.

Since pop-outs are occurred recently on concrete surface occasionally, it is needed to find out accurate causes and to suggest appropriate methods. On this study, it is investigated the occurrence mechanism of pop-outs caused by electric arc furnace Oxidizing slags as fine aggregate for concrete. As a result, it is investigated the cause of pop-outs that extremely small quantities of free CaO and free MgO in the electric furnace slag react with water to produce $Ca(OH)_2$ and $Mg(OH)_2$, so that their volumes are expanded and erupted about two times. As a resolution, it is needed to remove the potential cause of expansion by replacing the deteriorated concrete section up to the depth to secure the safe of structural element with repairing polymer mortar, especially more than 50MPa.

The use of converter slag as an aggregate for concrete is limited due to the risk of expansion. This study analyzed the substances causing the expansion of converter slag and evaluated the possibility of its use as an aggregate for concrete through separation and selection. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that CaO and MgO were concentrated in the slag particles inducing expansion, and it was confirmed that it was possible to separate them from non-expanded particles through magnetic.

Recently, more focus is shift to imbalances in aggregate market supply and demand and an exhaustion of natural resources. In this situation, Electric arc furnace oxidizing slag (EAF slag) has high application possibility as aggregate for concrete due to similar property with general aggregate. However, it is inherent the problem which causes pop-out by free-CaO contained in slag In this study, we've got the plan to assure the chemical stability of EAF slag, and then experimentally tested the mechanical performance and durability for the fine aggregate used EAF slag. On this test result, we suggest the application plan. At the result of this study, it shows that EAF slag would reduce the surface defect such as pop-out due to natural aging for the fixed hour and adjustment the grain size of EAF slag. And mechanical performance and durability according to the replacement rate of concrete service, were revealed more than equal or equal compare to general aggregate. Hereafter, quality control must precede not to impede the beauty of concrete surface as assure the safety for aging and processing. And, to establish the environmental resource recycling system for by-products of steel, it should be made development of various application and guideline of quality control for the EAF slag aggregate. Moreover, it must be constantly studied all kind of engineering performance and durability for related to this study.
