1 Thermodynamics of solutions, i.e., thermodynamic and physical properties of liquid mixtures. Phase equilibria (vapor-liquid, liquid-liquid, solid-liquid) in binary and multicomponent systems. The excess functions of mixing - Gibbs function, enthalpy and volume. Relationships between the properties of pure components and those of the mixture. Determination of experimental parameters and the model description using equations of state and group contribution methods. The model properties, advantages and limitations. The object of interest are liquid mixtures, both non-electrolytes and electrolytes.
2 My team is involved in research on Phase Change Materials (PCM). PCM are substances or mixtures which, as a result of phase transitions (solid – liquid, solid – solid, vapor-liquid) maintain a constant temperature while they take or give away the so-called latent heat. PCMs can have different applications, i.e. storing solar energy, insulating buildings and recycling waste heat. The most effective PCM should meet the following criteria: 1) Demonstrate an appropriate phase transition temperature to meet practical application. 2) The greatest possible melting enthalpy to ensure a high heat storage capacity. 3) High thermal conductivity to achieve heat transfer as soon as possible. 4) They should be non-toxic and non-flammable to ensure safety. 6) Have a low price. As part of my research, I develop PCM materials in the form of a composite, which, after optimization, will meet the above assumptions as much as possible.
