Colloid and Interface Science

Objective/function

The laboratory is active in the field of investigation of colloidal systems and applications of new colloids, with a focus on formation and characterization of dispersed systems, ranging in size from nanoparticles and nanocapsules through microparticles and microcapsules, up to large beads and powders. In addition, the research group deals with formulation chemistry in collaboration with industry to develop stable multicomponent, dispersed systems such as cosmetic emulsions and gels, paints, ink jet inks, coatings and pesticides. Advanced, graduate-level coursework is offered. Service provided

The lab is active in industrial formulations and in performing measurements required for developing products containing fine particles. It is well-equipped with instruments required for preparation and characterization of dispersed systems composed of nanoparticles, microparticles, microcapsules and emulsions. Advantages
