Under contracts and commissioned research tasks/authorization of the head of the IPiAM Department
Diffusion phase changes, forced by temperature, thermal stability of phases, gas phase decomposition, oxidation; eg recrystallization in Al-based alloys. Verification of phase systems. Glass transformation, crystallization and transformation kinetics, C-P-T diagrams; e.g. in metallic glasses and polymers. Specific heat of metallic and heat absorbing systems, multiphase intermetallic compounds.
