Scientific-Disciplinary Group

03/CHEM-05 - Organic Chemistry

Description

The project aims to synthesize and develop new calixarene-based molecular capsules capable of behaving as stable porous liquids. Through functionalization and comprehensive structural and functional characterization, the project seeks to elucidate the relationship between molecular structure and encapsulation ability. The ultimate goal is to assess their potential for gas capture, separation, and transport applications in environmental and energyrelated fields.
