Representatives of Rusatom Metal Tech LLC, a divisional integrator of the TVEL Fuel
Company of Rosatom in the Metallurgy direction, took part in the XVI International Chinese-
Russian Symposium “New Materials and Technologies” held in Haikou on the Chinese island of
Hainan. The company presented a wide range of metallurgical products, as well as reports within
the framework of the business program of the Symposium.
The Symposium was attended by about 300 specialists and scientists who presented more than
100 reports on topical issues of materials science. Representatives of Rusatom Metal Tech LLC
made presentations and exchanged experiences on cable and wire products and rare-earth
magnets.
Viktor Pantsyrny, Director of Development of the "Wire Products" direction of Rusatom Metal
Tech LLC, Doctor of Technical Sciences, spoke about the results of work on the manufacture
and application of low-temperature superconducting materials, conductors and wires made of
copper-niobium alloy with improved characteristics that have high strength and electrical
conductivity. In turn, Alexander Domov, the Project Manager of Rusatom Metal Tech LLC,
spoke about plans to build the first permanent magnet factory in Russia for wind generators and
electric vehicles.
"China and Russia have great potential and wide opportunities for cooperation in the field of new
materials. Rusatom Metal Tech is actively working in the field of new materials with China, in
particular, in the field of superconductors, cable and wire products and permanent rare-earth
magnets. We have already achieved significant results, and in the future there will be even
broader prospects for joint work in various industries,"; commented Andrey Andrianov, General
Director of Rusatom Metal Tech LLC.
Samples of Rusatom Metal Tech LLC products were clearly demonstrated at the stand of the
symposium. Heavy-duty high-conductivity wires made of copper-niobium alloy were of
particular interest to the event visitors: contact wires made of copper-niobium alloy for high-
speed railways, radiation-resistant and heat-resistant wires, especially thin wires coated with
silver, tin, nickel or uncoated, heavy-duty wires for creating magnetic systems of medical
imaging units, electric motors and generators.
Reference
The "New Materials and Technologies" Symposium has been held every two years in turn in
Russia and China since 1991. The purpose of the symposium is to strengthen bilateral scientific
and scientific-technical ties between scientists of the two countries in the field of creation and
development of new materials and technologies, increase the level of information exchange
between Russian and Chinese scientists, popularize achievements in various fields of materials
science and interdisciplinary research. The Russian industry has a goal to ensure technological
sovereignty and transition to the latest technologies as soon as possible. The state and large
domestic companies direct resources to accelerate the development of the domestic research,
infrastructure, scientific and technological base. The introduction of innovations and new high-
tech equipment allows Rosatom and its enterprises to occupy new niches in the market,
increasing the competitiveness of the nuclear industry and the entire Russian industry as a
whole. Rusatom Metallurgical Technologies LLC is a divisional integrator of the TVEL Fuel
Company of Rosatom in the Metallurgy direction. The tasks of developing the metallurgical
business of the Fuel Company include, in particular, expanding the customer base in Russia and
abroad, developing production facilities, and creating new alliances and partnerships.
Enterprises specializing in the manufacture of products made of refractory and light metals, as
well as alloys based on them, are the technological partners of Rusatom Metallurgical
Technologies LLC. The integrator consolidates the competencies of TVEL JSC enterprises in the
field of metallurgy: ChMZ JSC, MSZ JSC, NCCP PJSC, Elemash Magnit LLC, NPO Centrotech
LLC, and VNIINM JSC. The scientific potential, technological competencies, and qualified
personnel of enterprises make it possible to carry out work on the launch of mass production of
new materials and promising product ranges, as well as promptly respond to the needs of
leading industries and high-tech companies. Rosatoms TVEL Fuel Company (the Fuel Division
of the Rosatom State Corporation) includes enterprises for the manufacture of nuclear fuel,
conversion and enrichment of uranium, production of gas centrifuges, as well as research and
development organizations. As the sole supplier of nuclear fuel to Russian nuclear power plants,
TVEL provides fuel to a total of 75 power reactors in 15 countries, research reactors in nine
countries around the world, as well as transport reactors of the Russian nuclear fleet. Every
sixth power reactor in the world is powered by TVEL fuel. Rosatoms Fuel Division is the worlds
largest manufacturer of enriched uranium, as well as the leader of the global stable isotope
market. The Fuel Division is actively developing new businesses in the fields of chemistry,
metallurgy, energy storage technologies, 3D printing, digital products, as well as
decommissioning of nuclear facilities. Rosatoms industry integrators for additive technologies and energy storage systems have been created in the TVEL Fuel Company. http://www.tvel.ru
