Research directions

Materials, components and devices for hydrogen energy

+
We develop and manufacture: - catalysts for fuel cells; - metal and composite bipolar plates for low-temperature fuel cells; - photoelectrochemical cells.

Polymers, carbon and composite materials obtained by processing biomass

+
Technologies for the synthesis of: - 5-hydroxymethylfurfural; - furandicarboxylic acid; - polyesters based on 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid.

Electrocatalysis, photocatalysis and photoelectrocatalysis

+
We study the electro-, photo-, photoelectrochemical activity of materials in model and real conditions.

Electrochemical synthesis of electro- and photoactive materials

+
We synthesize materials based on metal nanoparticles, metal oxides, and carbon structures with electro-, photo-, and photoelectrochemical activity under conditions of pulsed electrolysis
