The effect of irradiation dose (kGy) on a set of AlCu 8.5 samples has been studied. The samples were irradiated to doses of 10, 30, 50, 70, 100, 300, 500, 700 and 1000 kGy of 60 Co γ-source at room temperature. The effect of γ-ray irradiation on the values of the S- and W-parameters reveals two stages. In the first stage, the S-parameter increases, while the W-parameter decreases up to 70 kGy. In the second stage, the S- and W-parameters decrease and increase respectively in the dose region from 100 to 1000 kGy. The dominant controlling mechanism of the S- and W-parameters was observed.

The biopolymer material, lignin, was recovered from the black liquor by acidification of the black liquor using sulfuric acid. Several purification techniques were carried out to produce the high purity of lignin such as gradual precipitation of lignin from black liquor (first stage: precipitation at pH 7, second stage: precipitation at pH 2) and the diluting of crude lignin by sodium hydroxide then followed by re-precipitation at different temperature. Subsequently, the impurities of lignin product resulted from each purification techniques was determined as ash content that analyzed using temperature program furnace; and the content of lignin was investigated using spectrophotometer UV-Vis. The result showed that the content of lignin of material produced from gradual precipitation was approximately 77.6%. It was higher than the content of lignin about 3.4% of material produced from direct precipitation to pH 2. In addition, the elevating of temperature from 40 to 60°C was no considerably affect to the content of lignin in precipitate produced from re-precipitation of crude lignin solution in sodium hydroxide. Nonetheless, the content of lignin of precipitate improved 15% when the temperature of re-precipitation of crude lignin solution in sodium hydroxide was raised from room temperature to 40-60°C.

W/Cu multilayer nanofilms and pure W nanofilms were prepared in pure Ar and He/Ar mixing atmosphere by radio frequency magnetron sputtering method. The defect evolution of the samples was characterized by Doppler broadening positron annihilation spectroscopy (DB-PAS).The results show that plenty of defects can be produced by introducing helium (He) into W/Cu multilayer nanofilms. With the natural storage time increasing, the helium located in the near surface of W/Cu multilayer nanofilm would be released gradually and induce the coalescence of the helium related defects due to the diffusion of the helium and defects. In addition, the pure W nanofilms were irradiated by 30 keV helium ions and 40 keV hydrogen (H) ions in sequence at room temperature. From the DB-PAS analysis, it can be shown that a large number of vacancy-type defects are produced due to the He and/or H irradiation. H ions would be trapped by He related defects and produced He-H-V complexes.

The microstructure of the polypropylenes (PP) irradiated by gamma ray was studied by positron lifetime technique and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Lifetime measurement shows o-Ps intensity decreases with increasing γ irradiation dose. The crystallinity of irradiated samples was detected by DSC method. The correlation between o-Ps intensity and crystallinity indicates γ-ray can induce higher crystallinity in the polypropylene at low irradiation dose.

The effect of buffer and γ irradiation on the optical properties of hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) copolymer was investigated. The transmission of HEMA copolymer decreased with the increase of irradiation dose and/or pH value of the buffer. The cutoff wavelength of HEMA copolymer exhibits a bathochromic shift as the γ-ray dose and/or pH value of buffer increases. The influence of atmosphere during γ-ray irradiation on the optical properties of HEMA copolymer was investigated. The change of optical properties of HEMA copolymer irradiated in air was more pronounced than that irradiated in vacuum. Light was scattered by holes in the polymer. The relationship between scattering intensity (Is) and incident wavelength (λ) can be described by the formula Is ∝ λ−n. The span of holes increases with the irradiation dose regardless of radiation atmosphere and pH value in the range of 4.1–6.5. A boundary between the inner and outer layers of HEMA copolymer irradiated in air was observed, separating two differential morphologies of holes.

Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy (PAS) is a powerful and versatile tool for the study of the microscopic structure of materials. Doppler Broadening Positron Annihilation Technique (DBPAT) is the fastest technique used among positron annihilation techniques. The dose effect in Al-6.5at. % Cu alloy was investigated by means of DBPAT. An abrupt change in both the S and W line-shape parameter values occurred at 70 kGy of irradiation. The S- and W-Parameters of the trapped positrons at 70 kGy of γ−irradiation dose are about 48 % and 14 % respectively. The S- versus W-parameter reveals a linear relationship indicating the presence of only one type of defect. The S- and W-parameters have been used in the determination of the positron trapping rate and the grain size of the AlCu6.5 alloy.

The oxide dispersed strengthened (ODS) ferritic-martensitic steel was irradiated by 100MeV iron ion whose energy was degraded by using a Ta foil of 4 μm thick, 100 keV Hydrogen and 200 keV Helium at 480, 515, 550 and 580 °C. The irradiation fluences were 1×1016, 1.1×1015 and 6.8×1013/cm2, respectively for Fe, H and He. The techniques of positron annihilation lifetime and Doppler broadening of slow positron beam were utilized to examine the produced radiation damage. At 550 °C the maximal positron annihilation lifetime and S parameter of Doppler broadening were observed, implyin g tha t 550 °C is the pea k temperature of swelling. The S parameter and annihilation lifetime of the sample irradiated at 515 °C by the single Fe ion beam were smaller compared to the triple beam irradiation at the same temperature, implying that the triple beam irradiation caused more severe damage than the single beam irradiation.

It has been studied a steam treatment process in an industrial continuous furnace for sintered iron parts in a temperature range varying from 490 to 570 °C and sample´s sintered densities of 6,52 and 6,77 g / cm3 . The tests have showed oxidation kinetics with two stages, each of them obeying a parabolic law. The first stage was faster than the second. The oxidation time when the oxidation kinetics of the first stage has changed for the second stage showed off very sensitive to the process temperature and sintered densities of the parts which are in agreement with the process rate controlling mechanism that was found to be the iron diffusion through the oxide layer.

Indonesia is prone to a variety of natural disasters, one of which is earthquakes. Earthquakes are detrimental to human life, causing among other things a loss of shelter. As such, victims of earthquakes need basic assistance in the form of shelter, which the Indonesian government provides in the transition phase of emergency responses. Several innovations in the provision of temporary shelter have arisen in terms of packaging and fast unloading. This research aimed to examine the effective value of OTTV energy (overall thermal transfer value), differences in room temperature, and thermal comfort in existing temporary shelters. OTTV values and thermal comfort are adapted to Indonesia's humid tropical climate, which has a temperature ranging 24–30°C and air humidity of 75%. Temporary shelters were simulated with Rhinoceros and Grasshopper softwares. The simulation was carried out in two stages, with the first stage simulating the temporary shelter materials and the second stage simulating according to a predetermined standard. The results concluded that the effective value of OTTV with the use of Styrofoam-based shelter gives a value of 27.63 W/m2 with a decrease of up to 4.70 W/m2 and the temperature drops to 2–3°C.

The Diffusion Trapping Model has been used to obtain the positron annihilation Doppler broadening lineshape parameter in ZnO and O+, B+, N+, Al+ implanted ZnO films. The concentration of vacancy clusters is found to be related to the atomic number and the fluence of the implanted ion. The S-parameter is found to be largest in the case of implantation of Al+ ions and is minimum for the implantation of B+ ions. Thus, the vacancy clusters are found to be largest in the case of Al+ implantation. The calculated results have been compared with the experimental value.

PLT and Doppler broadening S-parameter were used for Al – Mg alloy, namely 5005, 5051, 5052 and 5083. The trapping efficiency was estimated for the pervious alloys as 2.42 × 109, 2.29 × 109, 2.24 × 109 and 2.27 × 109 s -1 cm 3, respectively and the trapping cross-section was estimated to be as 2.66 × 10-16, 2.14 × 10-16, 2.10 × 10-16 and 3.51 × 10-16 cm 2, respectively. It is clear that the mean lifetime and S-parameter have the same behavior as a function of deformation degree and saturated at the same value of thickness reduction.
