The Prospects of Metal Research Development,
Abstract
The article examined the topic, the method, the current state, and the prospects of developing metal research, especially its theoretical branch. The main questions in the article are the following: the role of metal in science and technology; the state and prospects of developing a theory of metal alloys; the production and investigation of the structure and discovery of new properties of the most frequent monocrystalline metals and alloys; control of the structure and properties of metals and alloys by external extremal effects (high and low temperatures and pressure, electromagnetic fields, etd.); metal compounds and polymorphus metals as a reserve of new metal materials; the problems of a more rational utilization and processing of raw materials, mainly the rare and noble metals, their effectiveness in the national economy; the prospects of a more complete utilization of mechanical and technological properties of metals, alloys, and 'composite materials'; and the problem of thermal zones of brittleness of metals and alloys. The increasing role of metal materials with special electrophysical properties; superconducting metals and alloys, their influence on technical progress; the questions of biochemical, medicinal and agricultural metal research.
