Research interests

Noble metal nanoparticles: formation in solution or at the surface of the solid matrix. Catalytic/adsorption effectiveness of metal nanoparticles. Magnetic materials and solid electrolytes. Investigation of direct reactivity of the solid surface (silica, activated carbon, polymeric membranes, etc.). Chemical modification of the solid surface from liquid- or gas-phase. Redox reaction at the surface. Waste (ground) water cleanup. Biowaste transformation. Utilization modified/un-modified of natural and synthetic silicas in adsorption and catalytic processes. Evaluation of mechanical and chemical properties of synthesized materials. Biocompatibility of porous solids and utilization of solid matters in the bioengineering.
