Titanium and its alloys can be usually joined with brazing method. And the alloys should be brazed at low temperature to keep their original microstructure. In this study, the mechanical strength and microstructure of the CP-Ti joint-brazed with $Zr_{54}Ti_{22}Ni_{16}Cu_8$ filler metal having melting temperature of $774{\sim}783^{\circ}C$ were investigated. The tensile strengths of the joint-brazed at $800^{\circ}C$ with $100^{\circ}C/min$ of cooling rate showed more than 400 MPa which was as high as base metal. The $Widmanst{\ddot{a}}tten$ structure consisting of Ti and $Ti_2Ni$ phase was observed in the joint area. However, the tensile strengths of the joint-brazed at $800^{\circ}C$ with $15^{\circ}C/min$ of cooling rate were decreased and the Ti, $(Ti,Zr)_2Ni$ and $Ti_2Ni$ phases were observed at the joint area. It is believed that the $(Ti,Zr)_2Ni$ laves phases could decrease the mechanical strength of the joint and the cooling rate should be controled to get high strength of the titanium joint.

The effects of alloying elements on the superplastic properties of Al-Li based alloys had been investigated. The intermediate thermo-mechanical treated (ITMT) Al-2.0wt%Li, Al-2.0wt%Li-1.0wt%Mg, Al-2.0wt%Li-0.12wt%Zr and Al-2.0wt%Li-1.2wt%Cu-1.0wt%Mg-0.12wt%Zr alloys were tested in tension at various temperature (400, 450, 500 and $550^{\circ}C$) and strain rate($6.7{\times}10^{-3}$, $1.0{\times}10^{-2}$, $1.6{\times}10^{-2}$ and $5.0{\times}10^{-2}/sec$). The results were as follows : The superplasticity in binary, ternary and pentanary alloys appeared at 500 to $550^{\circ}C$, and good strain rate for superplasticity. $1.6{\times}10^{-2}/sec{\sim}1.0{\times}10^{-2}/sec$ for a binary alloy and $1.0{\times}10^{-2}/sec{\sim}6.7{\times}10^{-3}/sec$ for ternary and pentanary alloys. A Zr-added ternary alloy had best value of elongation (730%) in four alloys at $550^{\circ}C$ of tension temperature and $1.0{\times}10^{-2}/sec$ of strain rate. The strain rate was greatly dependent on tension temperature and true strain rate was more than 1.0 at all test temperature and strain rate. In binary and Mg-added teranry alloys. the necks were slightly formed and their fracture surface had lips shape, but Zr-added ternary and pentanary alloy fractured along the grain boundary without necking. Their dislocations moved to grain boundary during superplasticity deformation and arranged perpendicular to grain boundary. Super plastic deformation was made by grain boundary slip of dislocation slip creep and model of core and mantle.

KAERI에서는 파이로프로세싱에서 발생하는 금속폐기물의 부피 및 무게 감량을 위해 고방사성 장반감기 핵종을 포함하는 anode sludge내 NM의 고화매질로써 폐피복관과 첨가금속을 재활용하는 연구를 진행하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Cr 함량을 조절한 Zr-17Cr-8NM, Zr-22Cr-8NM, Zr-27Cr-8NM 합금을 유도용융을 통해 제조하였고, 전기화학적 부식시험을 실시하여 부식특성을 평가하였다. 모든 조성에서 기존 연구 중인 Zr계 합금고화체 조성보다 우수한 부식특성을 나타냈다. 또한 Zr-22Cr-8NM 시편의 부식시험 후 침출용액 조성 분석 결과, 500 mV 전압 조건 이하에서는 NM 침출이 없었고 이를 통해 우수한 화학적 안정성을 갖는 합금고화체 조성을 확보하였다.

최근에 고온용 항공기 구조 재료로 Ti, Zr, V, Nb 및 Ta 등의 천이금속을 첨가한 Al 합금계 제조와 특성에 관한 연구가 되어져 왔다. 본 연구에서는 Al-Nb합금에 Zr을 첨가하여 상형성거동을 연구하였다. Al-1.3at.%(Nb+Zr) 합금에서 Nb와 Zr의 원자비를 1:3, 1:1 및 3:1로 하여 기계적합금화하였다. 기계적합금화하는 동안 Al-Nb-Zr의 형태변화와 미세구조를 SEM, XRD 및 TEM으로 관찰하였다. X-선 회절 시험에 의하여 $Nb_2Al$ 과 $Al_3Zr_4$가 생성됨을 확인하였다. $500^{\circ}C$에서 1시간동안의 진공열처리에 의하여 $Al_3Zr$, $Al_3Zr_4$ 등의 금속간화합물을 형성하였다. 30시간동안 기계적 합금화한 분말을 열처리하여 TEM으로 관찰한 결과 100nm 이하의 금속간화합물 입자들을 관찰하였다.

ZrNbFeCu-xSn 합금을 진공 아크 용해법으로 제조하여 $360^{\circ}C$의 물, $400^{\circ}C$의 수증기 및 36$0^{\circ}C$의 70ppm LiOH 분위기에서 부식실험을 실시하였으며, 시편의 미세구조는 광학현미경, SEM 및 TEM으로 관찰하였다. 36$0^{\circ}C$에서 210일까지 부식 실험한 결과 대부분의 합금이 천이 전 영역에서의 부식거동을 보였다. $400^{\circ}C$ 경우, 초기에는$ 360^{\circ}C$에서의 부식거동과 비슷한 경향을 보였으나 80일 이후부터는 천이현상이 발생하여 부식속도가 급격히 증가하는 경향을 나타내었는데, Sn량이 많을수록 보다 빠른 시간에 천이현상이 발생했다. LiOH 용액에서는 전반적으로 $400^{\circ}C$에서 보다 더 늦은 시간에 천이현상이 발생했다. 석출물은 Zr(Fe,Cu)$_2$나Zr(Fe,Cu)$_3$로 추정되는 성분을 가지지만, Sn의 증가에 따라 석출물의 조성이나 크기는 거의 변화가 없는 것으로 관찰되었다.

The objective of this study is an understanding of stress corrosion cracking of metals that is recognized to mostly limit the lifetime of the structural materials by comparing the features of delayed hydride cracking of zirconium alloys with those of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of Ni-based alloys and hydrogen cracking of stainless steels. To this end, we investigated a dependence of delayed hydride cracking (DHC) velocity on the applied stress intensity factor and yield strength, and correlated a temperature dependence of the striation spacing and the DHC velocity. We reviewed a similarity of the features between the DHC of zirconium alloys, the SCC of Ni-based alloys and turbine rotor steels, and the hydrogen cracking of stainless steels and discussed the SCC phenomenon in metals with our DHC mode.

The charge-discharge, the high-rate dischargeability, and the self discharge characteristics of the electrodes composed of rapidly solidified ZrV\ulcornerMn\ulcornerMo\ulcornerNi\ulcorneralloy, which has the form of partial substitution of Mn, Mo, Ni for V in $ZrV_2$ were studied. The alloys were prepared using Arc & RSP(Rapid Solidification Process) at the rotating roller speed of 2000 and 5000 rpm. Some of them were received heat treatment at$ 560 ^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour after the solidification to investigate the effect of the heat treatment. It was fond that cycle life was significantly improved by RSP, whereas discharge capacity, activation rte and high rate dischargeability were decreased compared with the conventional arc melting method. The capacity loss seems to be due to the loss of the crystallinity and the increase of the cycle life ascribed to the presence of the amporphous phase as well as the refined grain size of less than 0.2$\mu\textrm{m}$. Heat treatment of the alloy cooled at 2000 rpm improved the cycle life. In case of the alloys cooled at 5000 rpm, both the discharge capacity and the activation rate were significantly improved by the heat treatment.

In this study, intermediate thermo-mechanical treated Al-2.0 wt%Li, and Al-2.0 wt%Li-1.2 wt%Cu-1.0 wt%Mg-0.12 wt%Zr alloys were tested in tension at $10^{\circ}C$ and elevated temperature(100, 200 and $300^{\circ}C$). The results are follows : The tensile strength of Al-Li-Cu-Mg-Zr alloy is the highest but the elongation of Al-Li alloy is the highest(106%) among the all alloys in tension at $300^{\circ}C$. The Portervin-LeChartlier effect is showed in AI-Li-Cu-Mg-Zr alloy at 10 and $100^{\circ}C$, because of tangled dislocation by Mg and Cu. In the true stress-strain curves of all alloy, the peaks of stress at $300^{\circ}C$ are showed at the strain less than 0.1. In the binary alloy, the dynamic restoration process at 200 and $300^{\circ}C$ is nearly similar to dynamic recovery type. The hot deformation stress is decreased with increase of dynamic recovery degree, but the elongation is increased. When the strain the strain rate are constant, the temperature dependence of hot deformation stress is increased with increase of deformation temperature. The elongation and degree of dynamic recovery are decreased with increase of hot deformation activation energy, but the deformation stresses slightly increased.

Here, we report on nanocrystalline Si-Al-M (M = Fe, Cu, Ni, Zr) alloys for use as an anode for lithium-ion batteries, which were fabricated via a melt-spinning method. Based on the XRD and TEM analyses, it was found that the Si-Al-M alloys consist of nanocrystalline Si grains surrounded by an amorphous matrix phase. Among the Si-Al-M alloys with different metal composition, Ni-incorporated Si-Al-M alloy electrode retained the high discharge capacity of 2492 mAh/g and exhibited improved cyclability. The superior $Li^+$ storage performance of Si-Al-M alloy with Ni component is mainly responsible for the incorporated Ni, which induces the formation of ductile and conductive inactive matrix with crystalline Al phase, in addition to the grain size reduction of active Si phase.
