Belarusian, Russian scientists team up to create smart materials

MINSK, 18 June (BelTA) – Belarusian and Russian scientists are implementing a project designed to create materials with changing qualities, the press service of the Ural Federal University (UrFU) told BelTA.

The scientific research is expected to secure a breakthrough in a number of industries, in particular, in microelectronics and aviation industry. The project will help create unique microchips and aircraft parts. Durability and conductivity of materials directly depend on the success of the R&D effort.

The scientists intend to develop special aluminum and silicon alloys mixed with iron, magnesium, and other elements to ensure homogeneous distribution of nano- and ultra-dispersion phases. Work will be done to determine solidification mechanisms at various speeds of molten metal cooling. Complex researches into the structural-phase state, mechanical and thermal properties of alloys will be carried out. It is also important to determine conditions for synthetizing alloys with the best technical properties.

The Russian scientists have received a grant for implementing the project from the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (RFBR). The Belarusian team will be financed via the Belarusian Republican Foundation for Fundamental Research.
