Lukasz Pazdur

Research Expertise:The expertise in oleochemistry. More specifically on chemical and biochemical modification of natural raw products (mostly oils and fats). Valorization of unsaturated fatty acids and their derivatives (isomerization of double bond by means of boron chemistry, chemical functionalization of fatty acids derivatives, synthesis of long chain bifunctional compounds as a perfect starting material for bioplastics production). Heterogeneous catalysis in oleochemistry and on synthesis and properties of novel monomers for biopolymers production.
