Notes:
A material capsule system including a main capsule, a fixing, a control, a cutting, and atransport system was developed for an irradiation test of non-fissile materials in HANARO. Thiscapsule system has been actively utilized for the various material irradiation tests requested by usersfrom research institutes, universities, and the industries. Based on the accumulated irradiationexperience and the user’s sophisticated requirements, the instrumented capsule technologies for amore precise control of the irradiation temperature and fluence of a specimen were developed inHANARO. 6,000 specimens from domestic research institutes, nuclear industry companies anduniversities, were irradiated in HANARO for 54,000 hours by using the developed capsule irradiationsystem. Recently, development of new instrumented capsule technologies for an IP/OR irradiationtest and a high temperature irradiation test has been performed in HANARO for relevant ongoingR&D for the international Gen IV Program. New irradiation technologies are also under developmentfor the production of new functional materials including superconductor and optical/electricalmaterials
