Goals and objectives of the Section:

Synthesis and study of carbon-containing materials with pressures of 3-15 GPa and temperatures of 20-2000 °С.

• Dr. N. Serebryanaya, Chief Researcher
• R. Bagramov, Senior Researcher
• R. Lomakin, Junior Researcher
• V. Danilov, Senior Engineer

Equipment:

DO-044 press basis system with force of 25,000 kN. The system was designed for processing materials at high pressures and temperatures.

It is equipped with a high-pressure chamber, allowing to process samples with following dimensions:

• 22 x 15 mm at pressures up to 6 GPa;
• 15 x10 mm at pressures up to 8 GPa;
• Processing of bulk samples at pressures up to 15 GPa.

Processing temperature of up to 1500 - 200 °C and the soak time (up to tens of hours, depending on the processing parameters) are provided by control system and original software.
