Research interest

Physical chemistry of polymers and materials. Synthesis and characterization (molecular and supramolecular structure, electrical, electrochemical, thermal, magnetic, antioxidant, textural and other properties) of electroconducting and electroactive polymers, carbonaceous materials and composites based on them, and their applications (supercapacitors, fuel cells, electrochemical sensing,  environmental protection, photocatalysis, etc). Mechanisms of oxidative polymerizations leading to conductive/electroactive polymers. Nanostructures of conducting polymers and carbonaceous materials (e.g. N-containing 1-D nanocarbons):  their preparation, mechanism of formation, properties, composites, and applications.  Characterization techniques: Raman, FTIR, UV-Vis and EPR spectroscopies, XRD, TGA/DSC, electrochemical and electrical conductivity measurements, SEM, TEM, etc.
