YEREVAN, MAY 22, NOYAN TAPAN. A Canadian company has expressed
an intention to purchase the technology of instrumental steel
tempering in water solution of Nairit latex. The technology was
developed by scientists of the State Engineering University of
Armenia (SEUA). Anahit Paronian, a co-author of this development,
SEUA lecturer, announced this during the Spring 2006 Faculty Student
Multidiscipline Conference on Research and Teaching on May 20. The
event was organized by the ooi Consortium for Teaching, Research,
Learning and Development (ooiCTRLD) (Ruston, Lousiana, US), which
is going to publish an article on this technology in its journal in
2006. According to A. Paronian, a group of SEUA scientists patented
the copyright on the indicated tempering technology as early as in
the Soviet time. However, metallurgical enterprises of former Soviet
countries could not use it due to financial difficulties. Work on
introduction of the steel tempering technologies developed at SEUA
is now underway at several such enterprises. The SEUA scientist said
that special oils, whose price ranges from 300-500 USD a ton, are used
in the widespread technologies of instrumental steel tempering. A ton
of concentrate of nairit latex produced by the Nairit Plant (Yerevan)
costs about 1,600 USD. However, taking into account that a 1.5% water
solution of this latex is used for steel tempering, the price of a ton
of the necessary substance is 40-60 USD a ton. The speaker pointed out
the advantage of nairit latex use over other polymers, in case of which
4% or 10% solutions are used in steel tempering. Besides, the nairit
latex solution is made by mixing, while solutions of other polymers
require extra operations and expenses. A. Paronian noted the low danger
of a fire in case of using nairit latex for steel tempering. Besides,
there is no need to use powerful ventilators at enterprises.
