Microporous and Mesoporous Materials

Part of the appeal of microporous and mesoporous materials is the unique and thorough molecular control of their intrinsic topological and chemical characteristics that nanochemistry is able to provide. With the correct choice of building blocks and self-assembly conditions, it is possible to produce nanostructured materials via chemical processes with precisely defined and tunable chemical [...]

Synchrotron-based Nanocharacterization of Soft Materials and Interfaces

Synchrotron radiation allows an exhaustive characterization of the structure, chemical nature and dynamics of materials. In this sense our lab exploits a wide range of methods, from small angle scattering up to spectroscopic methods, to gain exceptional insight into the physicochemical properties of materials and address a large variety of questions concerning the microstructure, dynamics, [...]

Molecular Modeling of Soft and Nanostructured Materials

Overview The focus of our research is on the molecular modeling of soft and nanostructured materials. We develop and apply theoretical models and computer simulations. Our goal is to understand how molecular interactions and nanoscale organization interplay and determine the macroscopic behavior of these complex systems. This knowledge is essential for the rational design of [...]

Biomimetic Nanofluidic Architectures

The virtues of working with nanofluidic elements are being increasingly recognized by the biomimetics research community. This has led to the emergence of a research area that is currently at the forefront of materials science and engineering. The advent of track-etching techniques (“top-down approach”) has resulted in an increasing mastery in construction of nanoscale fluidic [...]

Functional Macromolecular and Supramolecular Materials

In the recent years, the combination of polymer chemistry and supramacromolecular assembly has demonstrated unparalleled versatility to build up functional materials entirely from scratch. For instance, it is now well accepted that the manipulation of the aggregation structure of macromolecular assemblies can be a powerful method to tune the physicochemical properties of supramolecular materials. In [...]

Soft Surfaces and Interfaces

The chemistry that occurs at interfaces plays a determinant role in our everyday life, ranging from biological to large–scale industrial processes. This can be observed when following the development of novel biosensors or efficient catalysts based on nanomaterials. During the last decades, surface science and materials engineering have made remarkable progress on the molecular design [...]

Superficies e Interfaces Poliméricas

En el campo emergente de la “nanotecnología con materia blanda” (del inglés “soft nanotechnology”), existe un creciente interés en el desarrollo de películas y recubrimientos con propiedades y estructuras bien definidas que sirvan de plataformas para el desarrollo de sustratos inteligentes. El diseño de superficies con morfologías definidas y funcionalidades específicas es una de las [...]

Materiales Macromoleculares y Supramoleculares Funcionales

En los últimos años, la combinación de la química macromolecular y el ensamblado supramolecular ha demostrado una versatilidad inigualable para construir materiales funcionales a partir de bloques de construcción sencillos. En la actualidad es ampliamente aceptado que la manipulación de la estructura de agregación de ensamblados macromoleculares puede ser un método poderoso para manipular las [...]
