Research
Electrochemical properties of nanomaterials suspensions. These studies are performed in forced convection conditions: at rotating disc electrode and in flow. Number of reactions like electrocatalytic, electroreduction, electrodissolution and electrochemical redox reactions are employed for detection of nanoparticles in these conditions.
Reactions at liquid-liquid interface. These studies focus on H2 evolution and H2O2 generation also driven by light. The methods of refficiency enhancement by electrochemical regeneration of electrn donor are developed.
Reactions and catalytic materials for low temperature formic acid fuel cells. These studies ifocusdevelopment of new catalyst for formic acid oxidation and hydrogen reduction and construction of new devices.
Supramolecular chemistry of conducting molecularly imprinted polymers. Focused on devising, fabricating, and testing of molecularly imprinted polymer chemosensors based on polymer modified electrodes.
