Lucyna Hołysz

prof. dr hab. Lucyna Hołysz is a Full Professor in the Department of Interfacial Phenomena at the Faculty of Chemistry, Maria Curie-Skłodowska University. With habilitation in chemical sciences (1998) and full professor title since 2009, she specializes in surface energy and interfacial phenomena.

Education:

• M.Sc. in Mathematics-Physics-Chemistry (1976), UMCS
• Ph.D. in Chemical Sciences (1985), UMCS
• Habilitation in Chemical Sciences (1998), UMCS

Research Focus:
Her work addresses fundamental and applied aspects of interfacial phenomena, including surface free energy determination, super-hydrophobic surfaces, magnetic field effects on aqueous systems, and plasma-based polymer modification. She explores wetting dynamics, contact angle analysis, and dispersed systems stability.

Key Publications:
Recent studies (2010-2017) focus on lipid film characterization, magnetic field impacts on solutions, and surface energy measurement techniques. Her work bridges chemical physics and materials science with applications in biomedical and industrial systems.

Professional Memberships:

• Polish Chemical Society
• Lublin Scientific Society

Technical Expertise:
Utilizes thin-layer wicking, XPS analysis, and surface characterization methods to study interfacial behavior in glass-lipid systems and plasma-modified polymers.
