Ilyushchenko, Nikolay Grigorievich

He was born on December 4, 1918 in the village of Novopokrovka (now - the Tatarsky district of the Novosibirsk region) in the family of a railway worker.

He graduated from high school (1937) and the Department of Chemistry of the Ural State University with a degree in physical chemistry (August 1941).

In September 1941, he was drafted into the Red Army and, after training in officer courses at the Military Chemical Academy in March 1942, was sent to the Western Front as head of the chemical service of the rifle regiment, where he served until September 1945. After demobilization since September 1945, he worked at the Institute of Chemistry and Metallurgy of the UFAN in the electrochemistry laboratory: senior laboratory assistant, and since July 1946, junior research assistant. In 1953 he was sent to the disposal of the Ministry of Environment (PO Box 318) to work on the atomic project .

After defending his dissertation, he was a senior researcher, head of the laboratory. He developed methods for the analysis of plutonium for impurities, methods for producing porous filters for the separation of uranium isotopes, electrochemical methods for producing pure thorium and beryllium.

Since 1958, he again worked at the UFAN: head of the special laboratory No. 1 at the Institute of Electrochemistry, since 1961 he was the head of the laboratory of alloys, in 1961-1963 he was also acting as director of the Institute. Under his leadership, systematic research began in a new direction - the interaction of metals in ionic melts without electrolysis and diffusion alloying. The practical result is new methods for producing diffusion coatings on metals, powder alloys and inorganic compounds.

Since 1971, doctor of technical sciences, since 1973 professor. From 1973 to 1981, while remaining the head of the laboratory of alloys, he worked as a deputy director of the Institute for Scientific Work, Laureate of the USSR State Prize of 1988 in the field of science and technology, for the series of works “Development of the Foundations of Physical Chemistry and Electrochemistry of Molten Electrolytes” (1957-1986).

He died on August 5, 1995. He was buried at the Shirokorechensky cemetery in Yekaterinburg.

He is the author of more than 200 publications (including the monograph “Interaction of Metals in Ionic Melts.” - M .: Nauka, 1991) and 30 inventions.
