Young scientists Elvira Fakhretdinova and Elvira Hafizova are developing new zinc materials that can be used for the manufacture of implants, namely, for stents and orthopedic plates. In the production of implants made of biodegradable materials, there is no need for repeated surgery and anesthesia, which are indicated when using conventional metal spokes and screws. Over time, the implants will be absorbed and absorbed by the body without harm to health.
Elvira Hafizova chooses the optimal composition of materials, examines their functional properties and microstructure, and her namesake and colleague is engaged in computer modeling of intensive plastic deformation processes to determine rational conditions for processing new materials.
We hope that a scientific breakthrough in the field of medical implants will occur in the near future.
