Scientists find a way to “program” metal behavior during 3D printing
Russian researchers have discovered that laser 3D-printing parameters can directly influence the properties of a nickel—titanium shape memory alloy. The scientists demonstrated that by adjusting laser power and scanning speed, it is possible to “program” the material’s behavior in advance, including the temperature at which it recovers its shape and the degree of its elasticity. The findings open new opportunities for the development of advanced medical implants, miniature actuators, and components for 4D printing.
NUST MISIS Students Become Prize Winners of the 14th International Engineering Championship CASE-IN

Students from MISIS University earned one silver and two bronze awards.
MISIS University Participated in the CIS Council of Heads of Government Meeting
Alevtina Chernikova, Rector of NUST MISIS, presented the concept for the digital transformation of the mining and metallurgical industries of the CIS member states at the meeting of the Council of Heads of Government of the Commonwealth of Independent States held in Ashgabat. The concept was reviewed and officially adopted for implementation.
Scientists at NUST MISIS Taught Magnetic Nanoparticles to Remove Dyes from Water
Researchers at NUST MISIS have synthesized mesoporous cobalt ferrite nanoparticles capable of absorbing different organic dyes depending on the size of their pores. The development opens up new possibilities for treating industrial wastewater without the need for additional chemical modification of the sorbent. One of the material’s key advantages is that it retains its effectiveness even after repeated cycles of use.
Scientists propose a method for early diagnosis of retinal diseases based on “glow” in cells
Russian researchers have found that changes in the “glow” of pigment in retinal cells can be used to detect damage at very early stages, long before serious vision impairment occurs. The scientists also showed how antioxidants slow these processes by reducing the levels of toxic products of photodamage.
Science and Russian culture week: international summer school held at NUST MISIS
Undergraduate and graduate students from IMUST studying metallurgy, materials science, mechanical engineering, mining, automation, and applied statistics took part in an intensive educational and cultural program focused on modern technologies, Russian science, and intercultural communication. The delegation was headed by Sun Yanbai.

NUST MISIS develops alloy for cast components with a balance of strength and thermal conductivity
Researchers at MISIS University have patented an aluminum alloy for electronics and electric vehicles. By precisely tuning its composition and heat-treatment parameters, the material can achieve an optimal combination of properties.
Nationalities Day was celebrated at NUST MISIS
The university hosted the student festival “Nationalities Day” under the slogan “I Hear the Origins of Peoples,” bringing together more than 20 student associations that showcased the culture, traditions, and arts of their countries. The event has been held at the university since 2013. This year, it took place as part of the Year of Unity of the Peoples of Russia, announced by the President of the Russian Federation.
Scientists triple the thermal stability of perovskite solar cells
Russian scientists have improved the heat resistance of perovskite solar cells by incorporating special organic molecules (TPA-Py) into the material to stabilize its structure. As a result, the devices’ effective operating time at high temperatures of 80°C increased from 260 to more than 700 hours. This marks an important step toward the development of affordable and durable next-generation solar panels.
A new method for producing complex forms for manufacturing metal components has been proposed
Scientists have proposed a new method for creating metal molds for powder metallurgy applications—without welding or expensive 3D printing. The development opens up new possibilities for producing parts with complex geometries. The approach based on cold spray deposition may find applications in the aerospace industry, energy sector, and mechanical engineering.
