R&D registration number in UkrISTEI: No. 0119U100353

Planned scope:

  • in the military sphere as an element of armoring drones when clearing mines or working in aggressive conditions;
  • in industry as filters for industrial emissions in the liquid and gaseous phases;
  • in foundry production in mechanical engineering as an element of casting mold lining;
  • in electronics (a number of materials have the properties of capacitors and non-standard properties are possible with the right approach using a combination of metal + ceramic matrix);
  • in mechanical engineering as structural materials and protective elements;
  • in vocational education as an example of technologies for the creation and study of composite materials with different properties in the framework of practical classes and laboratory work.

Funding source: state budget funds

Presence of an interested Customer: LLC “International Institute for Public Opinion Research” is interested in cooperation with the authors of the project on the development and implementation of specifications and DSTU for the developed range of materials, structures and innovative technologies for their manufacture, modeling the general characteristics of the developed materials and the economic justification for their implementation.

TECHNICA AND TECHNOLOGIES OF THE UNIVERSE LLC is interested in the developed standards TU and DSTU, as well as the creation and testing of the developed materials and technologies with an economic justification for the expediency of their use.

TECHNIKA AND TECHNOLOGIES LLC is interested in all the previous points, including the definition of promising ways to improve the developed and existing technologies.

PJSC “UkrNIITMM” Private Joint Stock Company Ukrainian Research Institute of Marine Engineering is interested in the development of new composite materials for operation under extreme temperatures and breaking loads and innovative technologies for their manufacture. Separately, interest was noted in the development of methods for surface protection of the developed composites due to protective coatings and tribomodification.

Requests for cooperation in the framework of the study of the properties and testing of the developed combined porous composite materials with volume-changing thermophysical properties for military-civilian use and innovative technologies for their manufacture were sent to a number of institutions:

LLC “Magma Industry” held negotiations on cooperation in the direction of using the company’s products in the form of basalt wool as components of a number of composite materials. Pilot samples of basalt fibers for a trial batch of composite materials have been obtained. Negotiations are underway regarding joint research with representatives of the development department.

MOS Mykolaiv Alumina Refinery held negotiations on the use of products and production waste in the composition of composite materials. Pilot samples of alumina and crushed red bauxite mud were obtained.

Introduction: planned, planned to be introduced in 2021-2022 as new substances and materials in new designs for military-civilian use.

What additional actions require further research: approbation of scientific results is expected in production conditions: Motordetal-Konotop LLC, on the method of manufacturing composite materials based on sponge titanium powder in a silicate matrix (patent No. 115138), as well as on the method of restoring the friction surface of a metal part by extension with modifier-applied Ti-TiO2-Cu2O coating. It is planned to test an innovative thermal cycling technology for the restoration of cast iron parts in the presence of combined structures that limit the volumetric deformation of the geometry of the part.

Brief description, technical and economic parameters of advantages and positive qualities.

Applied problem, the solution of which is directed by the project, determined by the tasks of the Government of Ukraine, regulated by the order of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated January 20, 2016 No. 19-r “On approval of the Concept of the State defense-industrial complex for the period up to 2020”.

The development is of a convergent nature, therefore, it affects not only the military industry and foundry production, but also the scientific and technical potential in general.

The novelty of the approach lies in the combination of historical studies of military equipment, mathematical models of the formation, operation and critical loads of composite materials, predictive systems of random sequences in the simulation of particle packing, as well as the results of applied research on the manufacture of materials and structures of various types. The use of new methods and approaches to solving applied problems of modern materials science through the use of qualitatively new original ideas, methods and approaches in the development of new composite materials with volume-changing thermophysical properties for military and civilian use and the creation of innovative technologies for their manufacture. Combining an extensive approach with the replacement of cheap disposable elements based on the developed composites with an intensive way of improving the structure and composition of the composites themselves and the structures in which they are used is the main innovation of this study.
