Laboratory for Characterization and Processing of Polymers (LCPP) is active within the Institute of Engineering Materials and Design at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University of Maribor. Within the Institute, six well equipped laboratories enable research activities in a wide variety of newly developing sciences and technologies.
The Institutes` interdisciplinary research teams are involved or coordinate numerous international and national research projects and industrial R&D activities. Our full professors, associate and assistant professors, PhD and post-doctoral students as well as technicians are active within the LCPP.
Our team is active in common regional research on the field of Functional Polysaccharide Materials development activities among neighbouring Universities of the Styria region:
Since this research is highly interdisciplinary, most of the activities in this field are performed in close cooperation with our national and international partners.
