Numerical calculations of properties of liquid metals in the conditions of shock compression

The decision is directed to calculations of structure and properties of liquid metals in the conditions of shock compression, at pressure up to 500 GPa and temperatures up to 50000 K, and also to calculations ...

Micro and nanocrystalline molybdenum powders

A unique method for producing narrow-fractional molybdenum powders (the main fraction content is not less than 70%) by reduction with ammonium paramolybdate in hydrogen–nitrogen atmosphere has been developed; the average particle size of these powders ...

New ceramic materials system Mo-B-Si

New ceramic materials system Mo-B-Si, obtained by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) from mechanically (MA) in the blend used as targets for magnetron sputtering, and electrodes for spark alloying.

Multifunctional (hard, corrosion- and temperature-resistant, self-lubricating, resistive) films and coatings

Due to complex alloying and formation of a specific nanocomposite structure, hard wear-resistant coatings are characterized by a combination of high hardness and wear resistance, low friction coefficient, high temperature- and corrosion resistance, and thermal ...

Synthesis of BN nanotubes and nanosheets and their application for reinforcement of metallic binders of new composite materials

The large throughput fabrication of BN nanotubes and nanosheets and their smart utilization for reinforcement of diverse metallic and ceramic composite materials and coatings for structural and medical applications is our ultimate goal.

Spectral instrumentation for automatic interplanetary probes

Acousto-optic devices, owing to their bulk and high reliability, are widely used as an integral part of space borne research instruments on space vehicles.
