The Friščić group, which was launched in August 2011, is a part of the University of Birmingham's continued development in the field of green chemistry. The principal interest of the Friščić group is in developing and exploiting solid-state, solvent-free and near solvent-free reactions for the purpose of cleaner and more energy-efficient synthesis.
Leverhulme International Professor in Green and Sustainable Chemistry
Professor Tomislav Friščić holds a Leverhulme International Chair in Green and Sustainable Chemistry, is an expert in solid-state chemistry and the applications and fundamental understanding of solid-state reactivity.
Professor Friščić joined the University of Birmingham as a Leverhulme International Professor in Green and Sustainable Chemistry, to kick start the Birmingham Centre for Mechanochemistry and Mechanical Processing (BCM2) and affiliated UK RAM Facility for Sustainable Chemical Manufacturing.
Tomislav holds a Leverhulme International Chair in Green and Sustainable Chemistry, and leads a group pursuing the understanding and applications of new, reactive environments capable of accessing molecular targets and advanced materials in a way that is more effective, greener and scalable – based on principles of mechanochemistry, solid-state chemistry and crystal engineering. Together with Prof. James Batteas (Texas A&M) he is also a founding co-Editor-in-Chief of the first journal dedicated to mechanochemistry: RSC Mechanochemistry.
Are you in industry and wondering if solid state techniques can reduce your material costs?
We are very interested in applying our research to solving real world problems for industries!
Whether are you a professor interested in collaboration or a perspective student interested in our lab, we are always interested in collaborations and generally have positions open.
