YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 5, NOYAN TAPAN. The Institute of Chemical Physics
of the RA National Academy of Sciences is conducting negotiations with
the U.S. University of Notre Dame with regard to the conditions for
a joint commercialization of the tecnology for receiving powder of
silicium carbide processed in the Institute of Chemical Physics of
the RA National Academy of Sciences. This information was provided
to a Noyan Tapan correspondent by Suren Kharatian, the head of the
Kinetics Laboratory of Self-Spreading High-Temperature Synthesis of the
Institute of Chemical Physics of the RA National Academy of Sciences,
and that of the department of Chemical Physics of the Yerevan State
University.
In the words of Suren Kharatian, the yearly demand for "alfa
modification" having a certain size and structure of a granule
of powder, as well as for silicium carbide reaches several hundred
tonnes in the international market, however, this demand is not met by
producers. "The powder of silicium carbide received by our technology
meets the demands existing in the international market. Negotiations
with the University of Notre Dame in the direction of a joint
commercialization of the technology processed in the institute are
currently being conducted due to the above-mentioned fact," Suren
Kharatian mentioned.
According to him, that technology has been developed on the basis of
Self-Spreading High-Temperature Synthesis processes. It was mentioned
that the Institute of Chemical Physics of the RA National Academy of
Sciences will continue cooperating with the University of Notre Dame
in the direction of the research of SHS processes and the development
of technologies on the basis of the latters. Suren Kharatian also
mentioned that the Institute of Chemical Physics has provided the
University of Notre Dame with one of the four electrothermography
apparatuses made in the institute and processed by him. That apparatus
is envisaged for measuring the changes of the physical and electric
parameters of the substance during the SHS processes, as well as for
modeling the above-mentioned processes.
