NiAl alloy powders were prepared by mechanical alloying method and bulk specimens were produced using hot isostatic pressing techniques. This study focused on the transformation behavior and properties of Ni-Al mechanically alloyed powders and bulk alloys. Transformation behavior was investigated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), XRD and TEM. Particle size distribution and microstructures of mechanically alloyed powders were studied by particle size analyzer and scanning electron microscope (SEM). After 10 hours milling, XRB peak broadening appeared at the alloyed powders with compositions of Ni-36at%Al to 40at%Al. The NiAl and $Ni_3Al$ intermetallic compounds were formed after water quenching of solution treated powders and bulk samples at $1200^{\circ}C$, but the martensite phase was observed after liquid nitrogen quenching of solution treated powders. However, the formation of $Ni_3Al$ intermetallic compounds were not restricted by fast quenching into liquid nitrogen. It is considered to be caused by fast diffusion of atoms for the formation of stable $\beta$(NiAl) phase and $Ni_3Al$ due to nano sized grains during quenching. Amounts of martensite phase increased as the composition of aluminium component decreased in the Ni-Al alloy, which resulted in the increasing damping properties.

To develop a 6061 aluminum alloy with low residual stress and high tensile strength, a cryogenic treatment process was investigated. Compared to the conventional heat treatment process for precipitation hardening with artificial aging, the cryogenic treatment process has two additional steps. The first step is cryogenic quenching of the sample into liquid nitrogen, the second step is up-hill quenching of the sample into boiling water. The residual stress for the sample was measured by the $sin^2{\psi}$ method with X-ray diffraction. The 6061 aluminum alloy sample showed 67% relief in stress at the cryogenic treatment process with artificial aging at $175^{\circ}C$. From this study, it was found that the optimum cryogenic treatment process for a sample with low residual stress and high tensile strength is relatively low cooling speed in the cryogenic quenching step and a very high heating speed in the up-hill quenching step.

Red fluorescent organic nanopaticles (FONs) based on a diarylacrylonitrile derivative conjugated molecule were facilely prepared by surfactant modification. Such red FONs showed excellent water solubility and biocompatibility, making them promising for cell imaging applications.

We fabricated polymeric hollow spheres having macropores, which combine the advantageous properties of porous materials and hollow spheres. To fabricate such spheres, a polystyrene/methylmethacrylate solution was dispersed in water by vigorously stirring and then the suspension was quenched using liquid nitrogen. Water and methyl methacrylate present in the quenched suspension were readily sublimated by freeze-drying. Conclusively, the hollow-sphere structure and the macropores of its shell were created by the processes of liquid nitrogen-quenching and sublimation of methyl methacrylate domains within the shell, respectively.

A sensitive method for the determination of trace amounts of phosphate by fluorescence-quenching detection / FIA is proposed. The fluorescence of Rhodamine B(RB) was quenched with the formation of the ion associate of molybdophosphate with RB;${\lambda}_{ex}$ and ${\lambda}_{em}$ were 560nm and 580nm, respectively. A calibration graph was linear over the ranges from $10^{-8}$ to $3{\times}10^{-6}M$ of phosphate (~0.3~93ppb of phosphorus). The relative standard deviation was 1.2% with $8{\times}10^{-7}M$ phosphate solution and sampling rate was 15 samples / h. The proposed method was applied to the determination of phosphate in sea and river water samples.

The interaction and mixing of high-temperature melt and water is the important technical issue in the safety assessment of water-cooled reactors to achieve ultimate core coolability. For specific advanced light water reactor (ALWR) designs, deliberate mixing of the core-melt and water is being considered as a mitigative measure, to assure ex-vessel core coolability. The paper provides the background of past experiments as well as key fundamentals that are needed for melt-water interfacial transport phenomena, thus enabling the development of innovative safety technologies for advanced LWRs that will assure ex-vessel core coolability.

Background: We are developing a small size dosimeter for dose estimation in particle therapies. The developed dosimeter is an optical fiber based dosimeter mounting an radiation induced luminescence material, such as an OSL or a scintillator, at a tip. These materials generally suffer from the quenching effect under high LET particle irradiation. Materials and Methods: We fabricated two types of the small size dosimeters. They used an OSL material Eu:BaFBr and a BGO scintillator. Carbon ions were irradiated into the fabricated dosimeters at Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba (HIMAC). The small size dosimeters were set behind the water equivalent acrylic phantom. Bragg peak was observed by changing the phantom thickness. An ion chamber was also placed near the small size dosimeters as a reference. Results and Discussion: Eu:BaFBr and BGO dosimeters showed a Bragg peak at the same thickness as the ion chamber. Under high LET particle irradiation, the response of the luminescence-based small size dosimeters deteriorated compared with that of the ion chamber due to the quenching effect. We confirmed the luminescence efficiency of Eu:BaFBr and BGO decrease with the LET. The reduction coefficient of luminescence efficiency was different between the BGO and the Eu:BaFBr. The LET can be determined from the luminescence ratio between Eu:BaFBr and BGO, and the dosimeter response can be corrected. Conclusion: We evaluated the LET dependence of the luminescence efficiency of the BGO and Eu:BaFBr as the quenching effect. We propose and discuss the correction of the quenching effect using the signal intensity ratio of the both materials. Although the correction precision is not sufficient, feasibility of the proposed correction method is proved through basic experiments.

전통적 약재가공법인 초쉬법으로 수치된 적철석 약광물의 광물조성과 원소성분 변화를 고찰하였다. 적철석은 $650^{\circ}C$와 $900^{\circ}C$에서 각각 5회씩 초쉬법으로 수치되었다. 약재로 가공된 적철석은 수용액에서 원소 용출실험이 수행되었다. 초쉬법 수치에 따른 적철석의 광물상 변화는 없었다. 또한 $650^{\circ}C$와 $900^{\circ}C$에서 수치횟수와 원소 용출량의 변화 경향이 없는 것으로 보아 전통적 초쉬법에 의한 적철석의 약재 가공 효과는 불분명한 것으로 보인다. 그러나 가열된 약재를 식초에 담금질하는 가공법은 적철석을 부드럽고 분쇄되기 쉬운 약광물로 변화시키는 효과가 있다.

A set of reflood tests has been performed using ATLAS, which is a thermal-hydraulic integral effect test facility for the pressurized water reactors of APR1400 and OPR1000. Several important phenomena were observed during the ATLAS LBLOCA reflood tests, including core quenching, down-comer boiling, ECC bypass, and steam binding. The present paper discusses those four topics based on the LB-CL-11 test, which is a best-estimate simulation of the LBLOCA reflood phase for APR1400 using ATLAS. Both homogeneous bottom quenching and inhomogeneous top quenching were observed for a uniform radial power profile during the LB-CL-11 test. From the observation of the down-comer boiling phenomena during the LB-CL-11 test, it was found that the measured void fraction in the lower down-comer region was relatively smaller than that estimated from the RELAP5 code, which predicted an unrealistically higher void generation and magnified the downcomer boiling effect for APR1400. The direct ECC bypass was the dominant ECC bypass mechanism throughout the test even though sweep-out occurred during the earlier period. The ECC bypass fractions were between 0.2 and 0.6 during the later test period. The steam binding phenomena was observed, and its effect on the collapsed water levels of the core and down-comer was discussed.

Fe-5.7%Al-1.1%Cr-0.5%Si 및 여기에 0.12wt.%C가 함유된 합금의 최종 열처리를 $800^{\circ}C$에서 가열 후 수냉 또는 노냉함으로써 냉각방법에 의한 제진특성의 변화를 조사한 결과, 수냉은 이 합금의 제진특성을 현저히 악화시켰다. 그 원인을 미세조직 및 우선방위 특성과 관련시켜 조사하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 열처리 후의 냉각방법에 의해 결정립 크기 및 잔류응력은 거의 무시할 정도로 변화가 없었으며, 이로부터 이들은 제진특성과 직접적인 상관이 없다고 판단되었다. 그러나 이 합금의 집합조직 형성은 수냉의 경우(200) 및 노냉의 경우(110)가 우세하게 형성되어, 이 현상을 이 합금의 자화용이축 <100>과 관련시켜 수냉시의 제진특성 악화를 해석할 수가 있었다. 즉 수냉에 의해 $180^{\circ}$ 자구벽이 $90^{\circ}$ 자구벽에 비해 많이 형성되어 제진에 결정적 역할을 하는 $90^{\circ}$ 자구벽이 적어져 그 제진특성이 악화된 것이다.
