The research activities focus on synthesis of functional building blocks (macromonomers, polymers), development of new polymer colloids (nano- and microgels, hybrid or biohybrid particles) and design of interactive polymer-based materials. The specific targets are: a) controlled synthesis of functional polymer and hybrid colloids, asymmetrical particles, nanopigments, capsules; b) responsive nano- and microgels; and c) development of functional particle-based materials like colloidosomes, fibres or films for applications in catalysis, medicine and textile technology.
Workgroup has long-term experience in synthesis and characterisation of reactive polymers, hydrogels and polymer colloids. Functional polymers in combination with biomacromolecules are attractive building blocks for development of new encapsulation/release systems, switchable catalysts and responsive materials.
