Smelter slags is a promising material for construction

Scientists from the MISIS University, in collaboration with specialists from PAO (PJSC) Severstal, have proposed a new technology for processing blast furnace slag to produce cast stone products such as pavement tiles for roads and industrial premises, or wear-resistant parts for mining equipment, chemical and energy production.

NUST MISIS scientists patent a biodegradable alloy for bone implants

Researchers at the MISIS University have patented a shape memory alloy for biodegradable bone implants based on an iron-manganese-silicon (Fe-Mn-Si) system. It possesses high biomechanical compatibility with bone tissue and the required rate of dissolution, making it a promising material for use in traumatology, orthopedics and maxillofacial surgery.
