Degradation as a synthetic pathway?

Zeolites are extensively studied materials with a high potential for real-life use and industrial applications. However, these applications are often limited by zeolite synthesis, which usually demands harsh conditions and is thus unsuitable for preparing chemically labile materials. Such materials have now been successfully prepared by the research group of Professor Jiří Čejka and Associate Prof. Maksym Opanasenko, in the Department of Physical and Macromolecular Chemistry, and the Charles University Centre of Advanced Materials (CUCAM). Their article has been published in the prestigious Journal of the American Chemical Society (JACS).

Charles University awarded its best graduates

Of the eighteen winners, four were from our faculty! Mojmír Polák and Petra Krsková received the award from the hands of the Rector Prof. Milena Králíčková (Prof. RNDr. Jaroslav Heyrovský Award), the Prof. PhDr. Václav Příhoda Award went to Hana Janoušková and Ondřej Kopecký. Congratulations!
