The main idea of this work is to design the microstructure of nanostructured austenitic steel to improve its antibacterial and mechanical properties. In the literature, antibacterial properties are primarily attributed to the chemical composition of metals and their alloys, rather than their microstructural features. Therefore, the planned research is highly innovative. The severe plastic deformation (SPD) will be applied to produce the nanostructured material. The microstructure will be further optimized through annealing. The use of advanced electron microscopy methods will allow for a precise characterization of the resulting microstructures. The doctoral thesis will be carried out as part of a National Science Centre (NCN) project.
