The Japan Atomic Energy Agency is conducting a reactor modification project of the Static Experiment Critical Facility (STACY). In the modification, STACY is to be converted from a thermal reactor using solution fuel into that using fuel rods and light water moderator. Reactivity of the modified STACY core is controlled by the water level fed in the core tank as well as the present STACY. In order to verify the basic design of the water feed and drain system of the modified STACY, we constructed a mockup test apparatus with almost the same structure and specifications as the modified STACY. In the mockup test, performance checks were pursued regarding limitation of maximum flow of water feeding, adjustment of the flow rate of water feeding, stop of water feeding and others. This report describes the outline and results of the mock-up test of the water feed and drain system of the modified STACY.

Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:7.16(Chemistry, Physical)We investigated the orientation nature at the top-most layers of F-irradiated graphite using polarization dependent near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy which incorporates partial electron yield (PEY) detection and photon-stimulated ion desorption (PSID) techniques. The fluorine K-edge NEXAFS spectra conducted in PEY mode show no significant dependence on polarization angles. In contrast, NEXAFS spectra recorded in F ion yield mode show enhanced yields at a feature of 689.4 eV assigned as a *(C-F) state relevant to =C-F sites, which depend on polarization angles. The C-F bonds prefer relatively tilting down the surface at the top-most layer, while the C-F bonds are randomly directed at deeper regions. We conclude that the difference in the orientation structures between the top surface and bulk is reflected in the NEXAFS recorded in the two different detection modes. It was also found that H- and F- PSID NEXAFS spectra are helpful in understanding desorption mechanism, thus in analysing NEXAFS data.

Times Cited Count:4 Percentile:21.74(Chemistry, Multidisciplinary)Since well-characterized chemical modification of pore inner surfaces in polymer membranes should be very important from the view point of synthetic chemistry of polymer surfaces as well as designing materials for application such as separation membranes and nanoscopic electronic devices, we reported herein the chemical modification of internal surfaces of the cylindrical pores with 0.31 and 0.54 m in diameter through the reaction of the carboxylic acids on the surfaces with the alkylation reagent bearing a pyrene fluorophore. The incorporation of the fluorophore on the pore internal surfaces were successfully confirmed by the fluorescence microscope images of the membrane reacting with the alkylation reagent bearing a pyrene fluorophore.

The current status of microprocesses using synchrotron radiation in Japan was reviewed. The SR-excited process is followed by SR-excited surface modification, SR-excited crystal growth and SR-excited etching. The SR-excited surface modification is followed by SR-gas-excited surface modification and SR-direct-excited surface modification. The SR-excited crystal growth is followed by SR-excited atomic layer epitaxy and SR-excited chemical vapor deposition. THe SR-excited etching is followed by SR-direct-excited etching, SR-gas-excited etching and SR ablation.

The volume contains all presented papers during the the 3rd International Symposium on Material Chemistry in Nuclear Environment: MATERIAL CHEMISTRY '02 (MC'02), held March 13-15, 2002. The purpose of this symposium is to provide an international forum for the discussion of recent progress in the field of materials chemistry in nuclear environments. This symposium intends to build on the success of the previous symposiums held in Tsukuba in 1992 and 1996. The topics discussed in the symposium MC'02 are Chemical Reaction and Thermodynamics, Degradation Phenomena, New Characterization Technology, Fabrication and New Materials, Composite Materials, Surface Modification, and Computational Science.

As one of the technical cooperation activity based on the Annex III, the Cooperation in the Area of Reactor Physics and Technology, of the Arrangement between the National Nuclear Energy Agency (BATAN) and the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI), the modification of the Fuel Failure Detection System (FFDS) was carried out by the joint work at the Multi-purpose Reactor RSG-G.A. Siwabessy (RSG-GAS). The system takes the delayed neutron detection method. The design requirements of the modification are, (1) to save the system units currently used and the spares on hand as long as practicable, and / or (2) to replace the system units with those easy to maintain or to obtain at the markets. The modified system obtained around twice of higher sensitivity for delayed neutron detection than before and more reliable monitoring possibility with redundancy. The specification, installation, adjustment methods and characteristics of the modified system and the modus operandi of FFDS at high power reactor operation are described in this paper.

Times Cited Count:13 Percentile:42.68(Polymer Science)Chemical modification of the hydrophilic surface of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was examined by the selective alkylation of the acid salt on the surface using acylbromides as an electrophile with catalytic potassium fluoride. The hydrophobicity of the PET surface increased as the alkylation reaction of the hydrolyzed surface proceeded. The chemical incorporation of the alkylation reagents was confirmed by the fluorine peaks in X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) from the fluorinated reagents. Exponential increases were observed in the emission and excitation intensities of fluorescence spectra during the reaction of the surface with a fluorescent reagent. This indicated the esterification of carboxylic acids on the surface without deterioration of the reactions even at the later stages. The relation between changes in contact angles and the fluorescence spectra revealed that the hydrophobicity of a surface was quickly restored at the beginning of a reaction.
