Research areas

Dr. Nina Obradović’s research is mainly focused on powder processing, synthesis and the physico-chemical characterization of multifunctional ceramic materials. Ultra-strong ceramics find their application in armor and space crafts, while some of them are used in electro-industry. Porous ceramics are applicable as filters for waste-water purification. Dr. Nina Obradovic pays special attention to the relation between structure, electrical and mechanical properties of sintered materials.

Keywords: oxides, nanostructured powders, mechanical activation, sintering, characterization, properties, application
