DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY

Teachers, doctoral students and post-graduate students of the Department of Physical Chemistry participate in the implementation of six state budget research projects of the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine (total funding is more than two million UAH per year):

  1. Physico-chemical methods of obtaining functional materials(scientific supervisor, doctor of chemical sciences, professor  Oleksandr B Velichenko). The work is devoted to the establishment of the basic physicochemical and technological regularities of the influence of surface-active substances on the formation and properties of functional materials. It is supposed to identify the main factors that determine the effectiveness of additives as regulators of the rate of electrodeposition and corrosion fracture, physical and chemical properties of the received functional materials.
  2. Controlled synthesis of metal oxide materials with predictive properties(scientific supervisor, doctor of chemistry, professor  Oleksander B Velichenko). The project is aimed at establishing interrelationships between the composition, structural features, chemical bond and properties of simple and complex metal oxides. In the course of work, the development of a new theory of electrocrystallization and recrystallization of oxides, recommendations for controlled synthesis of materials on the basis of PbO2 based on the  given phase composition and texture is foreseen. The result of the work – a set of new experimental data on the influence of the conditions of electrolysis, the nature and concentration of the components of the electrolyte, the current collector and the thickness of the oxide layer on the phase composition and texture of the materials based on PbOwill be obtained. The universal kinetic model of phase formation and the theory of electrocrystallization of oxides, which takes into account the charge charge of the electrode surface and the electrically active particles on the regularity of electrocrystallization, as well as optimal correlation parameters of controlled electrochemical synthesis of oxide materials based on PbO 2 of the  given phase composition will be proposed . Recommendations on the stabilization of materials based on PbO 2 of the  given phase composition and texture in conditions of long anodic polarization in solutions of different composition will be developed; composition of electrolytes, electrolysis conditions and new modified and composite materials.
  3. Electrochemical synthesis of multicomponent nanostructured coatings: newest methods and electrolytes, electrode kinetics, properties, prospects of use(scientific adviser, doctor of chemical sciences, professor Felix Yosypovych Danilov) The project envisages the establishment of the basic laws of electrochemical synthesis of nanostructured multi-component electroplating (metal alloys and composites), and the development of new methods and electrolytes for obtaining functional coatings with a complex of predicted properties. It is planned to establish the factors defining the basic laws of electrodepositing of coatings by alloys and composites based on nickel, iron, chromium, tin, containing as a dispersed phase a nanoparticle of oxides of titanium, zirconium, cerium, etc .; to reveal kinetic characteristics of processes of co-precipitation of components of alloys and composite coatings and to offer a mechanism of these processes; to establish and substantiate correlations between the parameters of electrodeposition of alloys and composite materials and a complex of corrosion-electrochemical, mechanical and operational, catalytic, electro-catalytic and other properties of coatings. It is supposed to discover the factors of purposeful influence of the composition of the electrolyte and the mode of electrolysis on the kinetics of electrochemical processes and on the functional properties of nanostructured galvanic coatings based on nickel, chromium, iron and other metals.
  4. Composite catalysts of combined type in flow systems for use in zones of local conflicts(scientific advisor, doctor of chemistry, associate professor  Tetiana V. Lukianenko) The project is devoted to the development of the newest theory of controlled electrochemical synthesis of composite catalysts of the combined type, as well as the scientific and experimental bases of their effective use in conditionally nonreagent flow systems for the destruction of chemical and biological toxicants. Cardinally new methods of creating composite catalysts of combined type with dual electron and photo-catalytic activity are offered, due to the formation of reaction centers with the participation of electroactive ionic components of solutions on inert lobes-photo catalysts of the dispersed phase of suspension electrolytes and electrochemical recovery of TiO 2 nanotubes with the formation of titanium suboxides. Simultaneous operation of conditionally nonreagent flow systems will be organized in such a way that on the anode, except for direct electrochemical oxidation of toxicants, other products will be used as initial reagents for the formation of a new oxidant on a cathode (hydrogen peroxide) or a component of a mixture of oxidants for the implementation of in-depth oxidation processes. Efficiency of target processes is planned to be increased at the expense of simultaneous implementation of photochemical processes in parallel with electrochemical.
  5. Electrochemical destruction of toxic organic substances of aromatic nature  –  pollutants of the water environment(scientific supervisor candidate of chemical sciences  Olesia B.Shmychkova.) The project is devoted to the development of a technological scheme of electrochemical destruction of organic substances of aromatic nature – pollutants of the water environment through the use of metal-oxide electrodes, modified with additives of various ions. Experimental bases of the newest methods of electrochemical micromodification of the surface of anode materials will be developed due to the change in the ratio between different forms of oxygen-containing particles, which will allow both increase the speed of the target process and significantly increase its selectivity. The proposed project result set of anodes with high selectivity to deep oxidation of the various functional groups of aromatic compounds of different nature will allow a single device to use a technological chain for purification of water,
  6. Electrochemical corrosion and protection against corrosion of a number of structural steels in new types of ionic liquids(scientific advisor candidate of chemical sciences  Anna A.Kityk) The project is devoted to the establishment of the basic laws of electrochemical corrosion of some grades of structural steels in principally new types of ionic liquids – so-called low-temperature eutectic solvents, as well as the development of scientific principles of protection against corrosion damage in these aggressive environments. It is planned to establish the main factors determining the thermodynamic and kinetic regularities of electrochemical corrosion of metals in ionic liquids and to propose ways of protecting structural steels from corrosion damage. It is supposed to identify the factors of purposeful influence of the composition of low-temperature eutectic solvents, temperature and water concentration on the rate of corrosion process.
