Synthetic polymers: Structure and Properties. Biodegradable polymers (PSEP)

Biodegradable and Ecologic Polymers and Composites (eb-POLICOM)

The Biodegradable and Ecologic Polymers and Composites (eb-POLICOM) group specializes in the synthesis, characterization, and property analysis of new polymers, with a focus on biodegradable materials and their degradation processes, including hydrolytic, enzymatic, and thermal degradation. This group is a merging of the Synthetic Polymers: Structure and Properties. Biodegradable Polymers (PSEP), and the Eco-friendly Plastics and Composites (ePLASCOM) groups. Their laboratory is equipped with facilities for polymer synthesis, chemical and physical characterization, and degradation analysis. 

Their research is focused on:
