The mission of the Institute is:
  • basic research of inorganic and bioinorganic systems aimed at the optimization and development of new materials and technologies ,
  • upbringing (education) of new scientists in relevant areas within the framework approved by the Ministry of education of Slovak Republic ,
  • contribution to the research and development in joint fields of interest in Slovak Republic and abroad by expertise and collaboration with universities, nonprofit as well profit institutions .

The research comprises mainly:
  • relationships between composition and structure of inorganic compounds, i. e. advanced ceramics, molten systems and hydrosilicates ,
  • phenomena and chemical reactions in inorganic systems and on phase boundaries ,
  • thermodynamics of many component systems ,
  • development and application of theoretical and experimental methods for the estimation of the structure and properties of compounds .

The research is upgraded and conducted in funded scientific and research projects - governmental or international grants, as well as contracts with industrial bodies .


The Institute realizes its mission and research in the following Departments:

  • Department of ceramics
  • Department of hydrosilicates
  • Department of molten systems
  • Department of theoretical chemistry
