Prominent scientist, laureate of the State Prize, Honored Scientist, Order of Shohrat" and "Sharaf", head of the Laboratory of Synthesis and Technology of Synthetic Oils of the Institute of Petrochemical Processes, Academician Maharram Mammadyarov passed away at the age of 98.
Mammadyarov Maharram Ali oglu was born on October 17, 1924 in Yayji village of Julfa region. In 1932, he entered the 7-year school of Yayji village and finished in 1939. In 1939-1941 he was a student of Nakhchivan Pedagogical College, in 1941-1942 he worked as a primary school teacher in Julfa district. He fought on the fronts of the Second World War in 1943-1944 and was awarded a number of orders and medals. He was seriously wounded in 1944 and discharged from the army after hospital treatment.
After graduating from high school in 1949, Mammadyarov was admitted to the graduate school of the Leningrad Institute of Chemical Technology and in 1953 defended his PhD dissertation on "Interaction of formaldehyde, skin collagen with amino acids” and worked as a scientific secretary and a senior researcher. In 1955, he was sent on a business trip to Moscow to the Institute of Organic Chemistry named after N. Zelinsky of the USSR Academy of Sciences, where he conducted scientific research in the field of synthesis and conversion of vinyl ethers under the guidance of corresponding member of the USSR Academy of Sciences M.F. Shostakovsky.
In 1959, at the invitation of Yusif Mammadaliyev, Mammadyarov returned to Baku and worked as a senior researcher at the Institute of Petrochemical Processes (NCPI) of the Azerbaijan Academy of Sciences.
The intensive development of technology in the 1960s, primarily in the military field, further strengthened the demand for lubricants. It should be noted that at that time, because petroleum oils, in many cases, did not meet these requirements, there was a need to create new types of lubricating oils by chemical synthesis. In this regard, intensive research was conducted in many countries around the world, including the former USSR, in the field of obtaining high quality synthetic oils. Well-known scientist in the field of chemistry M. Mammadyarov was elected head of the laboratory. From that year until his death, he worked at the Institute of Petrochemical Processes as the head of the laboratory for the synthesis and technology of synthetic oils….
The memory of the outstanding scientist, who contributed to the development of science in Azerbaijan, will always live in the hearts of those who knew him.
Allah rehmet elesin!
