ResearchDepartment of Applied and Environmental Chemistry
Staff members of the Department of Applied and Environmental Chemistry of the University of Szeged have been active in nanotechnology
research since 1995. Our research infrastructure was improved dynamically in the last 5 years and today, we have the equipment
necessary for state-of-the-art materials science research. Department of Organic Chemistry Structural investigation of transition metal nanoparticles intercalated in graphite (graphimets). Characterization of the active site distributions of the samples by 1-butene titration. Catalytic investigation of the samples in gas-phase alkene hydrogenations. Microcalorimetric study of the formation of the ß-hydride phase for Pd-graphimet catalysts. Preparation of Pd and Pt nanoparticles of controlled crystallite size in layer-structured host materials including smectite clays, hydrotalcites and graphite oxide. Synthesis of Pd and Pt nanoparticles, mediated by cationic surfactants, in mesoporous materials. Structural characterization of the samples by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Catalytic investigation of the samples in chemoselective, stereoselective and enantioselective hydrogenations. Study of the solvent effect on liquid-phase alkyne hydrogenations performed on layer-structured Pd catalysts. Institute of Physical Chemistry Electronically conducting polymer based nanocomposites Institute of Solid State and Radiochemistry Surface characterization of supported nano sized particles (catalyst, sensors) and nano structured materials by X-ray photoelectron and low energy ion scattering spectroscopy
