MASOST (MAterial and SOlution STructure Research Group) is a project-based research group, which builds upon the complimentary expertise of senior researchers from various departments within the Institute of Chemistry at the Faculty of Sciences. MASOST is active in the following research areas:
- Layered double hydroxides – synthesis, modification, structural characterization, intercalation, applications in various catalytic processes;
- Highly concentrated aqueous electrolyte solutions of industrial relevance, in particular strongly alkaline solutions – thermodynamic characterization and structural aspects of the complex compounds present in such systems;
- Solid crystalline or microcrystalline compounds (e.g., layered double hydroxides, solid complex salts, etc.) obtained from highly concentrated aqueous electrolytes – characterization of local and nanostructure;
