Synthesis of Inorganic Materials

Ulrich Schubert, PhD, has been Professor of Inorganic Chemistry at the Institute of Materials Chemistry, Vienna University of Technology, since 1994. His research interests are centered around application-oriented fundamental research on sol-gel processes and inorganic-organic hybrid materials. Nicola Hüsing, PhD, was appointed Professor of Materials Chemistry at the Paris-Lodron University of Salzburg, Austria in 2010. Her research interests focus on the liquid phase synthesis of porous materials, inorganic-organic hybrid materials and mesoscopically organized systems, especially with respect to synthesis-structure-property relations.
