The physical and macromolecular chemistry department members traditionally met at the chateau Liblice in May 2024. This year, our advanced PhD. student David Šorm contributed with his lecture titled: “How can metal complex isomerism influence the texture properties of organometallic polymers?” The lecture given by David Šorm showed the recent results and advances in his […]
Already the 54th edition of the Symposium on Catalysis was held at the Jaroslav Heyrovský Institute of Physical Chemistry (Czech Academy of Science). This year our group represented PhD. student David Šorm and contributed with a lecture titled: “HIERARCHICALLY POROUS CONJUGATED POLYMERS BY COMBINATION OF POLYACETYLENE CHEMISTRY AND HIPE TEMPLATING: PREPARATION AND APPLICATION IN PHOTOCATALYSIS”. […]
Our lab of porous polymers together with our colleagues from the lab of polymer synthesis and biomaterials prepared a series of educational experiments from the field of polymer chemistry for high school students during the event “Cesta do hlubin chemie 2023”. The students tested several properties of common polymers, including the solubility of polystyrene in […]
In September 2023, two members of our group actively participated in the Bayreuth Polymer Symposium 2023 (BPS ’23). University town Bayreuth in Germany hosted the 18th edition of this polymer conference held at the local university. Michaela Vaňková and David Šorm, both PhD. students, presented their poster communications, shared recently achieved scientific results and discussed […]
Another annual meeting of the Department of Physical and Macromolecular Chemistry took place at the chateau in Liblice. Members of our group enriched the program with a total of four oral lectures. On the first day, our first-year PhD. student Michaela Vaňková had the introductory lecture about her research, including current results and mainly future […]
Our PhD. student David Šorm already completed a nearly three-month internship at the National Institute of Chemistry in Ljubljana, Slovenia in autumn 2022. This time he was accompanied by two other PhD. students from our group – Lucie Havelková and Alena Hašková – to complete a three-week internship at the same institute in February 2023. […]
Our post-doc Bogdana Bashta and Ph.D. student Alena Hašková represented our group at the conference Polymers 2022 which was held at the beginning of October 2022 at Třešť chateau. Polymers 2022 was a Czech-Slovak conference organized by the Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry of the Czech Academy of Sciences and the Polymer Institute of the Slovak […]
At the beginning of September 2022, we actively participated in the 74th Congress of Chemists in Olomouc. At this conference, our group contributed with three oral presentations (delivered by Lucie Havelková, Alena Hašková and David Šorm) and one poster communication (presented by Bogdana Bashta). All our contributions were presented in the “Porous Materials” section, where […]
At the turn of June and July, our group actively participated in European Polymer Federation (EPF) Congress 2022 in Prague. Our Ph.D. student Lucie Havelková delivered an oral lecture about Functionalized Hyper-Cross-Linked Porous Polyacetylenes for Sorption and Catalytic Applications. Other contributions from our group were poster communications delivered by post-doc Bogdana Bashta (Microporous Polyacetylene Polymer […]
From June 13th to 16th, our group participated in Bordeaux Polymer Conference 2022. It was the first major polymer conference since the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in high attendance accompanied by lectures delivered by big names in polymer chemistry (including K. Matyjaszewski and others). We have contributed with three poster communications delivered by our Ph.D. […]
