How can corrosion of magnesium alloys be prevented?

Collaboration of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (SB RAS), including both Tomsk Scientific Center (TSC) and Institute of High Current Electronics (IHCE), with Milan Polytechnic University (Italy) continues. Scientists from two countries have proposed optimal methods for electron-beam processing of magnesium alloys, which enable to improve their corrosion resistance by several times. One of the results of this international cooperation is the ‘Surface properties modification alloys by low energy high current pulsed electron-beam’ paper in the ‘Surface and Coatings Technology’ journal (Q1 according to the Web of Science database).

A mathematical model of mechanochemical synthesis will improve the efficiency of SHS processes.

The scientists from the Research Department for Structural Macrokinetics (Tomsk Scientific Center of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences), Head of the Laboratory of Mathematical Modeling of Physical and Chemical Processes in Heterogeneous Systems Oleg Lapshin and Senior Researcher Oksana Ivanova have published an article "Macrokinetics of mechanochemical synthesis in heterogeneous systems: Mathematical model and evaluation of thermokinetic constants" in the high-ranking journal Materials Today Communications.

A new review summarizing the effect of high-energy processing of zirconium and its alloys has been published in the Nuclear Engineering and Design journal
