Annotation -
Laboratories are focused on gaining practical skills in the field of identification of natural samples, X-ray diffraction, solution of structures from the data measured on monocrystals, preparation of sorbents and geo-polymers from natural substances, decontamination technologies using sorption methods, evaluation of sorption capacity and sorption kinetics.
Last update: TAJ108 (29.08.2013)
Aim of the course -

Students will be able to:

prepare sorbent based on hydrotalcite and clay mineral;

measure and evaluate the sorption series and sorption kinetics for selected toxic contaminants;

prepare geopolymer;

determine the lattice parameters of single crystal and solve the structure on the basis of obtained data;

measure the patterns with X-ray powder diffraction and solve the structure from powdered data.
