The Institute of Inorganic Chemistry (IIC) is focused on basic research in the area of inorganic and bio-inorganic systems oriented to optimization and development of new materials and technological processes in the following branches of science: inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, materials chemistry, inorganic technologies and materials, theoretical chemistry, nanotechnology.

The main subjects of the research are the following:

• Relations between composition, properties and structure of inorganic substances, mainly advanced ceramic materials, molten salt systems and hydrosilicates.
• Thermodynamics of multicomponent systems.
• Features and chemical reactions in inorganic systems, including interface of phases.
• Development and application of theoretical and experimental methods for the determination of the structure and properties of matter.

• SiC ceramic materials with high thermal conductivity
• Influence of the structure of benzothiazole dyes on phenomena leading to changes in their luminescent properties)
• Stabilization of diclofenac by efficient binding on the halloysite surface
• Investigation of the effect of solvation on 1J(Metal–P) spin–spin coupling
• Formation of Polycrystalline YAG Channels via Femtosecond Laser in Microsphere-Sintered Glasses: Towards Erbium-Doped Waveguide Lasers
