In this work, we present the development of phase structure of the poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA)/ poly(vinylacetate)(PVAc) mixtures in ethyl acetate solution by light scattering. The PMMA/PVAc blends cast from ethyl acetate solutions exhibited fine "modulated structures" over broad blend composition ranges, which originated from the spinodal decomposition of the ternary polymer solutions at low polymer concentrations during the casting. The periodic distance was depended on the blend compositions and evaporation times.

CF8M cast austenitic stainless steel is used for several components such as primary coolant piping, elbow, pump casing, and valve bodies in light water reactors. These components are subject to thermal aging at the reactor operating temperature. Thermal aging results in spinodal decomposition of the delta-ferrite leading to increased strength and decreased toughness. In this study, three kinds of the aged CF8M specimen were prepared using an artificially simulated aging method. The objective of this study is to summarize the method of estimating ferrite contents, Charpy impact energy and J-R curve, and to evaluate the thermal embrittlement of the CF8M cast austenitic stainless steel piping used in the domestic nuclear power plants.

These components are subject to thermal aging at the reactor operating temperature. Thermal aging results in spinodal decomposition of the delta-ferrite leading to increased strength and decreased toughness. This study shows that ferrite content can be predicted by use of the artificial neural network. The neural network has trained learning data of chemical components and ferrite contents using backpropagation learning process. The predicted results of the ferrite content using trained neural network are in good agreement with experimental ones.

일반적으로 다공성 비대칭막은 상분리법에 의하여 제조하는데, 분리막을 구성하는 고분자를 적절한 용매에 녹인 제막용액을 일정한 두께로 casting하고 이를 비용매에 담가서 binodal/spinodal decomposition이 일어나도록 하여 제조한다. 이 방법으로 제조된 다공성 분리막의 성능은 표면층에 존재하는 pore의 크기와 그 분포 및 porosity에 의해 결정된다. 표면층의 pore size와 분포를 조절하기 위하여 그간 고분자 용액내의 고분자 농도조절, 첨가제의 사용, 비용매의 조성을 바꾸는 등의 여러가지 방법에 대한 연구가 진행되어 왔다. Casting된 고분자 용액을 비용매에 침잠시켜 다공성막을 형성시킬 경우 막의 표면과 비용매 사이의 계면에서 용매와 비용매의 교환이 일어난다. 용매-비용매 교환이 일어나면 제막된 고분자 용액이 열역학적으로 불안정해져 상분리가 일어난다. 이 때 용매-비용매의 교환이 매우 빠른 속도로 일어나 pore-size의 분포를 조절하기가 매우 어렵다.

Effect of dealloying condition on the formation of nanoporous structure in melt-spun $Al_{60}Ge_{30}Mn_{10}$ alloy has been investigated in the present study. In as-melt-spun $Al_{60}Ge_{30}Mn_{10}$ alloy spinodal decomposition occurs in the undercooled liquid during cooling, leading to amorphous phase separation. By immersing the as-melt-spun $Al_{60}Ge_{30}Mn_{10}$ alloy in 5 wt% HCl solution, Al-rich amorphous region is leached out, resulting in an interconnected nano-porous $GeO_x$ with an amorphous structure. The dealloying temperature strongly affects the whole dealloying process. At higher dealloying temperature, dissolution kinetics and surface diffusion/agglomeration rate become higher, resulting in the accelerated dealloying kinetics, i.e., larger dealloying depth and coarser pore-ligament structure.

MBE 성장시 기판 표면에서의 성장과정을 운동론적 지배과정과 열역학적 지배과정으로 나누어 성장모델을 제시하였으며, 화학적 평형상태에서의 열역학이 III-V compound의 성장속도와 composition 에 미치는 영향을 기존의 보고된 결과 데이터와 비교 분석하였다. 특히 miscibility gap 내에 존재하는 III-V ternary compound의 경우 박막의 성질 및 소자의 특성에 영향을 미치는 alloy clustering은 저온 성장시 surface kinetics에 의해, 고온성장시에는 열역학적 spinodal decomposition에 의해 결정됨을 알수 있었다. 열역학적 모델에서는 기판과 layer사이의 lattice mismatch와 재료의 elastic coefficient의 함수인 additive strain Gibbs free energy, 그리고 ternary solid solution의 regular behavior를 가정하여 ternary alloy의 mixing에 기인한 excess Gibbs free energy를 고려하였다.

Fe-Co-Ni particles with an average size of 45 and 135 nm are characterized in terms of magnetic phase transformation and magnetic properties at room temperature. BCC structure of Fe-Co-Ni spherical particles can be synthesized from Fe-Co-Ni-Al-Cu precursor films by heating at 600-80$0^{\circ}C$ for the phase separation of Fe-Co rich Fe-Co-Ni particles, followed by a post heating at $600^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours. The average size of nanoparticles was directly determined by the thickness of precursor films. Exchange interactive hysteresis was observed for the nano-composite (Fe-Co-Ni)+(Fe-Ni-Al) films resulting from the short exchange interface between ferromagnetic Fe-Co-Ni particles surrounded by almost papramagnetic Ni-Al-Fe matrix. Arraying the isolated Fe-Co-Ni nano-particles in a random arrangement on $Al_2O_3$substrate the particle assembly showed a behavior of dipole interactive ferromagnetic clusters depending on their volume and inter-particle distance.

Porous membranes were prepared via thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) of (ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) (EVOH)/glycerol mixtures. The liquid-liquid (L-L) phase boundaries are shifted to higher temperature when the ethylene contents in EVOH increase. Moreover, the kinetic study proved that the growth of droplets formed by the general liquid-liquid (L-L) phase separation obeyed a power-law scaling relationship in the later stage of spinodal decomposition (SD). A new phase separation mechanism was presented, in which the L-L phase separation could be resulted from the crystallization. The hollow fiber membranes were prepared. The membranes showed asymmetric structures with skin layer near the outer surface, the larger pores just below the skin layer and the smaller pores near the inner surface. The effect of ethylene content (EC) in EVOH, cooling water bath temperature and take-up speed on membrane performance was investigated.

Cast duplex stainless steels are extensively used for primary pressure boundary components. These components are, however, embrittled due to the precipitation of $\alpha$' phase by spinodal decomposition and other processes when exposed to reactor operating temperature for a design lifetime or life extension conditions. This report presents a procedure for estimating the current condition and the residual life of safety-related stainless steel components by using ANL database and correlations. The database of Charpy impact energy suggests that CF-8M grade is the most susceptible to thermal aging and CF-3 grade is the least. Thus, the integrity of CF-8M alleys may be degraded seriously and the degree of deterioration may exceed acceptance limit after several years of service in the nuclear reactors.
