YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 7, NOYAN TAPAN. It is envisaged to use the
technologies of obtaining milybdenum powders, which were developed
by the Institute of Chemical Physics of the RA National Academby
of Sciences, at Pure Iron Plant producing molybdenum alloys,
NT correspondent was informed by Suren Kharatian, head of the
self-propagating high-temperature synthesis kinetics laboratory and
of the chair of chemical physics of Yerevan State University.
According to S. Kharatian, the institute has developed technologies
for obtaining pure molybdenum and molybdenum disilicide powders from
molybdeum oxide. Negotiations on transferring these technologies are
being conducted with the plant. S. Kharatian expressed a hope that the
production of the above mentioned powders will be organized at Pure
Iron Plant. "If we compare the technologies of otaining molybdenum
powder, we see that our technology based on the self-propagating
high-temperature synthesis processes is a complex and expensive
one. But the purity of the substance obtained is much higher,
therefore, it is several times as expensive as those obtained by
using other technologies."
S. Kharatian said that some amounts of nickel and cobalt powders
obtained through the technologies developed by the institute are now
used for production of cutting tools at Yerevan's Almast Plant. These
powders are also used at the plant as a catalyst in artificial
diamond synthesis. He expressed a hope that the cooperation between
the institute and "Almast" Plant will expand.
