Laboratory of Physico-Chemistry and Microbiology for Materials and Surfaces

The Laboratory of Physico-Chemistry and Microbiology for Materials and Surfaces studies how materials behave on a physical and chemical level, including their interaction with microbes. It investigates properties like surface chemistry, coatings, and how microorganisms adhere or grow on different surfaces. The goal is to develop new materials, improve existing ones, and ensure surfaces are safe, durable, and functional. This research is important for areas like medicine, industry, and environmental science, helping to create better surfaces that resist contamination, corrosion, or wear, ultimately enhancing product performance and safety.
