Author: Mária Omastová

Mária Omastová, born in 1962, studied physical chemistry at Slovak Technical University in Bratislava. She received Ph.D. in macromolecular chemistry in 2003 from the Polymer Institute (PI) Bratislava. After postdoctoral tenure at the Leibniz Institute of Polymer Research Dresden, Germany, she joined the Department of Composite Thermoplastic of PI Bratislava as research fellow. Her research interests are focused on conducting polymers, conductive polymeric micro- and nano-composites, their preparation and study of the properties including spectroscopic characterizations, thermal ageing, stability, thermo-oxidation, etc. She published over 50 articles in international scientific journals and one book and obtained 3 Slovak patents. M. Omastová is president of the Polymer Division of the Slovak Chemical Society.
