Historical background
The laboratory was set up in 1962. In 1962–1991 it was led by Prof. S.V.Vinogradova.
Main research themes:
Elaboration of new types of polycondensation processes. Preparation of polyesters and copolyesters of different configurations and microsructures with hydrophilic, hydrophobic and amphiphilic properties included both linears and branches, comb- and star-like structures. Development of different types of linear super high molecular polyorganophosphazenes for medicine, membrane and other applications. Synthesis of new types of fluorescence polyheteroarylenes: polymer fluorophores, bifluorophores and threefluorophores with high thermo- and light stability. New polymer systems for effective lithium batteries, as catalyst of polyphenylenoxide production, and as dispersed thermostable dyes.
Current research themes:
Development of techniques of synthesis of novel photochromic molecules and dyes, production of photosensitive supramolecular systems based on them and investigation of receptor, fluorescent and photovoltaic properties of these systems.
