The laboratory is designed for scientific purposes – the study of phase interactions in the solid phase, the synthesis of new complex oxide compounds with promising characteristics for further use in various fields and the study of their physicochemical properties.
Resources
The laboratory base allows the use of research methods:
- Differential thermal/thermogravimetric analysis (DTA/TG)
- Atomic force microscopy (AFM)
Equipment fleet

- Laboratory equipment for synthetic work
The laboratory team synthesizes powder and ceramic materials with different crystal structures with useful physico-chemical properties.
- Develop and improve methods for obtaining new and effective cationic modification of known complex oxide materials
- Investigate the effect of the composition on the beneficial properties of substances
- Study the thermal stability and temperature behavior of the crystalline structure of substances
- Study of phase equilibria in multicomponent oxide systems
- Optimization of methods of solid-phase synthesis of complex oxide compounds
- Development of methods for obtaining new compounds by ion exchange reactions
- Analysis of physico-chemical properties of synthesized phases
Layered structures exhibiting high catalytic selectivity in ethanol oxidation reactions have been obtained. Cationic modifications of layered structures make it possible to obtain new materials for a wide range of potential applications, such as: electrolytic materials for solar panels, highly conductive electrolytes for solid-state power sources, switches for information storage devices, various sensors and thermal sensors.
Techniques have been developed for the solid-phase synthesis of layered structures exhibiting high catalytic selectivity in ethanol oxidation reactions. Previously, structures were obtained mainly by methods of heterophase ion exchange reactions. Solid-phase synthesis reduces the time spent on obtaining the final substance and allows for more precise control of its composition.
