Материалы для термоядерных реакторов будут печатать на 3D-принтере

Scientists from NITU MISIS together with specialists from NIIEFA JSC have created a new technology for the production of material for plasma-facing components in fusion reactors. These elements must withstand heavy loads associated with high temperature and the impact of hydrogen isotopes from the plasma. For this reason, their quality is always subject to stringent requirements.

A hybrid technique that combines additive manufacturing (3D printing) with classical methods has made it possible...
