On the 10th and 11th of October, our group attended the annual Symposium on Catalysis held at the Jaroslav Heyrovský Institute of Physical Chemistry (Czech Academy of Science). During this 56th Symposium, our PhD. student Michaela Vaňková presented her poster titled: “Porous polyacetylenes with hydroxyl groups for reversible sorption of vapors of polar solvents“. The […]
At the end of May 2025, our group attended an annual meeting of our department, the Department of Physical and Macromolecular Chemistry, in Liblice. This year, our PhD student, Michaela Vaňková, contributed with her lecture: Polyacetylene POPs for sorption applications. The lecture given by Michaela showed results from her PhD project on developing porous polymers […]
In May 2025, a member of our group participated in the 15th Advanced Polymers via Macromolecular Engineering 2025 (APME2025), held in Catania, Italy. Michaela Vaňková contributed with a poster presentation (Microporous polymer networks with hydroxy groups for Water vapor sorption from air) in the Polymers at surfaces and interfaces section. This conference was attended by […]
At the end of August 2024, two group members participated in the 76th Congress of Chemists in Ostrava. At this conference, the head of our group, doc. Jan Sedláček, contributed with an oral presentation in the Porous Materials section. This presentation was an overview of the work of the whole group. Part of the conference […]
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. […]
