An expert from the Moscow State University of Nuclear Energy Research Institute of Engineering Physics at the Russian State University has improved the synthesis of complex oxides, enabling the optimal performance of some widely used materials, ranging from substrates for processing radioactive waste to fire-retardant ceramic coatings, to aircraft engines. And turbine engine heat-resistant coating and many other fields.
In order to obtain information on the structure reorganization of the anions and cations of the material, the researchers combined X-ray absorption spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and synchrotron radiation, and also used other methods to analyze the samples.
Researchers believe that obtaining the best properties of complex oxides and making them available for different applications in real life is very important. In addition to the use of new materials as ceramic coatings for thermal insulation, radioactive waste disposal and the construction of solid oxide fuels The matrix of the components, the resulting material can also be used to make neutron absorbers for nuclear reactors.
