About Us<\/span><\/h1>\n

The Molecular Materials and Interfaces Laboratory (MMIL) develops several investigation themes since 2004. In the present section you will texts and tutorial videos about these subjects. (English subs to come a soon as possible). Please activate the menus on the top green bar.<\/span><\/p>\n

Macrocycles and Inclusion compounds<\/h2>\n
Cucurbiturils, bambusurils, pyrogallolarenes, resorcinarenes, hemi-cucurbiturils, as well as their derivatives. Our focus are inclusion compounds with halogens for organic synthesis, the metallic complexes of these macrocycles for catalysis, the inclusion compounds with dyes for photodynamic therapy, illicit drugs and food components for electrochemical and optical sensors, as well as the interactions between these cavities and simple ions for the preparation of semipermeable membranes.

Polymeric Membranes<\/h2>\n
Nanofiltration membranes and pervaporation membranes are extremely useful for water purification\/treatment, fuel cell, gas separation and CO2 trapping among a myriad of applications. These membranes are named CUBION. We prepare too CUBION-based polymeric composites with artificial molecular channels, that are able to discriminate permeation of individual chemical species by size, by charge and\/or solvophilicity.<\/span><\/p>\n
