On some prospects for further development of Academician V.N. Antsiferov ideas in the field of structural powder materials

The paper discusses the further development of some ideas of V.N. Antsiferov and the scholar school created by him in obtaining structural powder materials and products. The prospects for obtaining concentration-inhomogeneous steels and trip-steels are noted. The great potential lies in the control of the thickness and volume of the zone of deformation martensitic transformation occurring during fracture. It is advisable to continue the preparation of fullerene- and nitrogen-containing powder compositions and to study the structural heredity of powder steels. The possibility of the synthesis of fullerene-containing phases during the liquidphase sintering of the iron–cast iron and iron–graphite compositions and their subsequent redistribution in the bulk of the material during dynamic hot pressing is worth noticing. Producing nitrogen-containing steels by mechanical activation of powders followed by sintering in dissociated ammonia is advisable to use for obtaining not only wear-and corrosion-resistant materials, but also heat-resistant ones. The studies on the decomposition of supercooled austenite in powder steels of various doping systems with different technological backgroung (sintered, hot-deformed, infiltrated, etc.) are promising. The potential for development is the research of hot-deformed concentration-inhomogeneous materials, obtained, in particular, on the basis of powders of the Distaloy type. The techniques developed by the Antsiferov’s school are significant. The most important one is the method for determining the concentration variation coefficient, as well as a magnetometric complex and a mathematical model, which makes it possible to predict the decomposition of supercooled austenite. Antsiferov’s works can be used for obtaining lean powder steels with the lower bainite structure, which provides the optimal combination of strength and toughness.
