본 연구에서는, 방사선 가교와 열처리에 의해 내열특성을 가진 polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) 수화겔을 제조하였다. 제조된 수화겔의 겔화율, 팽윤도와 겔강도 같은 기계적 특성을 측정하였다. DSC와 XRD를 이용하여 구조적 변화를 알아보았다. 수화겔의 겔화율과 겔강도는 방사선 조사 후에 열처리 과정을 했을 경우에 방사선 조사만 했을 때보다 높은 값을 보였다. 또한, 방사선 조사한 수화겔과 방사선 조사 후에 열처리 과정을 한 수화겔이 고온에서의 내열특성이 우수하였다.

저선량의 감마선 조사(0-9.1 kGy)에 의하여 옥수수녹말의 고유 점도는 감소, 겉보기 아밀로오스 함량, 물 결합능력, 팽윤력과 용해도는 증가하였다. RVA 또는 아밀로그래프 점도는 조사선량이 증가함에 따라 감소하였으나 DSC에 의한 흡열 전이에는 큰 영향이 없었다. 감마선 조사한 옥수수 전분을 이용한 저항전분 생성은 효과가 없었다.

The solid-state core of a heat pipe cooled reactor operates at high temperatures over 1000 K with thermal and irradiation-induced expansion during burnup. The expansion changes the gap thickness between the solid components and the material properties, and may even cause the gap closure, which then significantly influences the thermal and mechanical characteristics of the reactor core. This study developed an irradiation behavior model for HPRTRAN, a heat pipe reactor system analysis code, to introduce the irradiation effects such as swelling and creep. The megawatt heat pipe reactor MegaPower was chosen as an application case. The coupled irradiation-thermal-mechanical model was developed to simulate the irradiation effects on the heat transfer and stresses of the whole reactor core. The results show that the irradiation deformation effect is significant, with the irradiation-induced strains up to 2.82% for fuel and 0.30% for monolith at the end of the reactor lifetime. The peak temperatures during the lifetime are 1027:3 K for the fuel and 956:2 K for monolith. The gap closure enhances the heat transfer but caused high stresses exceeding the yield strength in the monolith.

Copolymers of gelatin and poly (vinyl alcohol), (PVA) grafted by acrylic acid (AAc) with excellent water absorption and retention abilities under neutral conditions were successfully synthesized using $^{60}Co$ gamma radiations in presence of ammonium persulphate (APS), as water soluble initiator and sodium bicarbonate ($NaHCO_3$) as foaming agent. The optimum synthesis conditions pertaining to maximum swelling percentage were evaluated as a function of gelatin/PVA ratio, amount of water, concentration of APS, $NaHCO_3$, monomer concentration and total irradiation dose. Maximum percent swelling (1694.59%) of the copolymer, gelatin-co-PVA, was obtained at optimum $[APS]=2.92{\times}10^{-1}mol/L$, $[NaHCO_3]=7.94{\times}10^{-2}mol/L$ and 1.5 mL of water at total dose of 31.104 kGy while in case of grafted copolymer, (gelatin-co-PVA)-g-poly(AAc), maximum percent swelling (560.86%) was obtained using $8.014{\times}10^{-1}mol/L$ of AAc in 9 mL water with 31.104 kGy preirradiation dose. The pristine and grafted copolymers were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning electron Microscopy (SEM), Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) methods. The copolymers loaded with an antiseptic, Povidone, were used as wound dressing materials for wounded gastrocnemius muscle of mice and the results exhibit that (gelatin-co-PVA)-g-poly (AAc) copolymer is a potent wound dressing material as compared to the copolymer.

The author studied the acute reaction of cobalt-60 irradiation to buccal mucosa in rats and difference of the effects of single versus fractionated exposure. 195 Sprague Dowley strain rats, weighing about 120gm, were used in this experiment. 3 rats served as controls and the remaining 192 rats were divided into six groups of 32 rats each. Experimental group Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ were received a single dose of 15Gy, 16.5Gy, 18Gy and group Ⅳ, Ⅴ, Ⅵ were received two equal sized fractionated dose of 9Gy, 9.75Gy, 10.5Gy at 4 hour intervals, respectively. The experimental groups were irradiated with cobalt-60 teletherapy unit, Picker model 4M 60 (Field size, 12x5 cm, SSD, 50㎝, Dose rate, 222cGy/min, Depth, 1㎝). The animals were sacrificed at 1, 2, 3, 6, 12 hours, 1, 3, 7 days after irradiation and the changes of the irradiated buccal mucosa were observed by electron and light microscopy. The results were as follows: 1. A single exposure was more damaging than fractionated exposure, and as the radiation dose increased, the changes of cell organelles became faster, but the healing of radiation-induced damage in fractionated exposure was faster than in single exposure. 2. The radiation-induced changes of the basal cells were the most prominent in 18Gy-single exposure group, and the least in 18Gy-fractionated exposure group. 3. Electron-microscopically, there appeared nuclear changes, swelling of mitochondria and rough endoplasmic reticulum, decrease of free ribosome, presence of vesicles, widening of intercellular space, and loss of basal lamina. The early remarkable changes were partly loss of nuclear membrane and swelling of mitochondria. 4. Light-microscopically, derangement and pyknosis of basal cells, hydropic changes of spinous cells, enlargement of granular cells, indistinctness of basement membrane, and proliferation of epithelium were observed.

장류를 이용한 대표적 조미식품인 쌈장에 감마선을 조사한 후 $25^{\circ}C$와 $37^{\circ}C$에 10주간 저장하면서 제품의 품질변화를 살펴보았다. 감마선조사에 의하여 효모는 2.5 kGy 조사구에서도 완전 사멸되었으며, 일반세균은 10 kGy 조사구에서 5 log cycle 정도의 감소율을 나타내었고 보존 기간 중에도 미생물의 생장이 억제되었다. 감마선조사는 제품의 외관평가 요소인 gas 발생에 의한 제품의 swelling과 갈색화를 유의적으로 억제하였으며, 장류제품의 숙성정도 및 보존기간 중의 품질 평가 지표가 되는 아미노태질소와 pH의 변화, 그리고 효소활성평가의 지표가 되는 단백질분해효소의 활성변화에서도 안정적인 품질유지 효과를 보여주었다. 또한, 관능평가에 있어서도 감마선조사구가 대조구에 비하여 유의적으로 높은 선호도를 나타내어 감마선 조사 기술이 쌈장의 관능적, 생화학적 품질을 유지시키는 효과적인 방법인 것으로 평가되었다.

Since 2001, a series of five irradiation test campaigns for atomized U-Mo dispersion fuel rods, KOMO-1, -2, -3, -4, and -5, has been conducted at HANARO (Korea) in order to develop high performance low enriched uranium dispersion fuel for research reactors. The KOMO irradiation tests provided valuable information on the irradiation behavior of U-Mo fuel that results from the distinct fuel design and irradiation conditions of the rod fuel for HANARO. Full size U-Mo dispersion fuel rods of 4-5 $g-U/cm^3$ were irradiated at a maximum linear power of approximately 105 kW/m up to 85% of the initial U-235 depletion burnup without breakaway swelling or fuel cladding failure. Electron probe microanalyses of the irradiated samples showed localized distribution of the silicon that was added in the matrix during fuel fabrication and confirmed its beneficial effect on interaction layer growth during irradiation. The modifications of U-Mo fuel particles by the addition of a ternary alloying element (Ti or Zr), additional protective coatings (silicide or nitride), and the use of larger fuel particles resulted in significantly reduced interaction layers between fuel particles and Al.

화학적 가교와 방사선 가교에 의해 내열특성을 가진 PVA 수화젤을 제조하였다. 제조된 수화젤의 젤화율, 팽윤도와 젤강도 같은 기계적 특성을 측정하였다. 젤화율은 화학적 가교 반응시간과 방사선 조사선량이 증가할수록 증가하였고, 화학적 가교 후에 방사선 가교를 했을 경우에 화학적 가교만 했을 때보다 높은 값을 보였다. 젤강도는 화학적 가교 반응시간이 증가할수록 증가하였고, 방사선 조사선량이 감소할수록 증가하였다. 5시간 화학적 가교만 한수화젤과 화학적 가교 후에 방사선 가교를 한 수화젤이 고온에서의 내열특성이 우수하였다.

Pulsatile swelling behaviors and their application to drug delivery system were studied by using interpenetrating polymer networks(IPN) hydrogels constructed with poly(vinyl alcohol) and poly(acrylic acid). The PVA/PAAc IPNs hydrogels were symthesized by UV irradiation tallowed by repetitive freezing and thawing method. These hydrogels showed pH and temperature sensitive swelling behaviors. From the release experiment, the release amount of model drug incorporated into these hydrogels showed pulsatile patterns. Permeability coefficients obtained by various solutes differed in response to changes of permeation conditions.

방사선 조사 전분류의 확인방법 연구의 일환으로 0, 1.5, 3.0, 4.5 및 6.0 kGy의 감마선을 조사한 옥수수 전분, 고구마 전분 및 감자 전분을 대상으로 일정 조건에서 조사선량별 점도를 Brookfield DV-III programmable rheometer를 사용하여 측정하였다. 전분 현탁액의 농도를 옥수수 전분 8.0%(건물량 7.2%), 고구마 전분 8.5%(건물량 7.3%) 및 감자 전분 9.0%(건물량 7.3%)로 조제하여 100rpm에서 점도를 측정한 결과, 모든 시료에서 조사선량이 증가함에 따라 점도가 유의적으로 감소하였고 (p<0.05), 각각 $R^2$ 0.9754, 0.9618 및 0.9888의 높은 상관성이 확인되었다. 또한 1.5 kGy 조사선량에서도 옥수수 전분 34%, 고구마 전분 57%, 감자전분 51%의 점도 감소가 일어나 저선량 조사의 경우에도 뚜렷한 점도 변화가 관찰되어 방사선 조사 전분류의 확인방법으로써 적용 가능성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 점도 측정에 의한 조사여부 판별의 신뢰도를 높일 수 있는 보조적인 확인 marker로써 용해도, 팽윤력, 청가 및 알칼리수를 검토한 결과, 조사선량이 증가함에 따라 용해도 및 알칼리수는 유의적으로 증가(p<0.05)한 반면, 팽윤력은 유의적으로 감소(p<0.05)하는 경향이 확인되었다.
