About
Nadezhda Prokhorenkova is a materials scientist and biomedical engineering researcher whose work sits at the intersection of advanced surface coating technologies, robotics, and implant manufacturing. Her research centers on microplasma spraying (MPS) as a precision method for depositing functional coatings onto industrial and biomedical substrates, with a particular emphasis on titanium and tantalum-based systems for medical implant applications. Prokhorenkova's most influential contribution, cited 22 times, demonstrated how robot-assisted microplasma spraying can produce consistent, high-quality multilayer surface structures on biomedical implants — a significant step toward automating and standardizing implant manufacturing. Her broader body of work explores powder coating multifunctional systems for industrial surface protection, investigating microhardness, corrosion resistance, and nanoscale lamellar structures in nickel-based coatings deposited on steel substrates. More recently, she has extended this expertise to tantalum coatings for elbow joint implants, pushing the boundaries of biocompatible surface engineering. Through her consistent focus on resource- and energy-efficient deposition technologies, Prokhorenkova has helped establish microplasma spraying as a viable precision manufacturing tool, contributing meaningfully to both industrial surface protection and next-generation biomedical implant development.
