On October 7-10, 2014, academician of RAS Vyacheslav Mi. Buznik, advisor of the director general of VIAM and Candidate of Technical Sciences Elena B. Chabina, deputy chief of Testing Center of VIAM, have taken part in the IV International scientific conference «Nano-structural materials - 2014 (NANO-2014)». The event took place in Minsk at the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus.
Within the Conference, the participants discussed problems of nano-structural materials science and coordination of efforts in the field of production, researches and applications of nano-structural materials.
In particular, Elena Chabina has made the report «Current state and problems of application of nano-materials and nanotechnologies in aviation materials science» about works carried out by VIAM to create materials for advanced aviation engineering.
Moreover, for one of the sections of NANO-2014 she made the report «Researches of structure and development of a kit of standard samples of structure and composition of nano-structural wrought heat-resisting nickel-based alloy».
In his turn, Vyacheslav Buznik has held the plenary session of the conference, where he told about fluorinated polymer materials based on micro and nano-dimensional fibers.
