Integrantes

Diseño, preparación y caracterización de materiales de alto valor agregado, utilizando como materia prima alúmino-silicatos naturales (arcillas, zeolitas, tierras de diatomeas, cenizas volcánicas, etc.) procedentes de depósitos minerales no- metalíferos argentinos, de amplia disponibilidad y bajo costo de extracción. El grupo desarrolla técnicas avanzadas de síntesis y caracterización (estructural, espectroscópica, térmica), para obtener sistemas del orden de los nanomateriales, síntesis e incorporación de polioxocompuestos (POMs y HPOMs) en matrices oxídicas, sintéticas o naturales. Estos nanomateriales son precursores catalíticos bifuncionales (ácidos/redox) en reacciones de bajo impacto ambiental, intercambiadores iónicos y adsorbentes para contaminantes. Además, presentan potencial aplicación en biomedicina como agentes antitumorales.
