The Open Day gave a perfect opportunity to see the places which are normally not accessible to outsiders, to listen to what the employees have to say on the subject of research work, and to participate in performing interesting chemical and physical experiments.
The youth from the lower high schools in Zabrze and from the Children’s Home in Zabrze had the possibility to see what dry ice or liquid nitrogen is. They were given the chance to conduct the experiments from which they learned, for example, what is surface tension, a non-Newtonian liquid or how thermosensitive polymers are created.
On the Open Day the Center was visited by the President of Zabrze – Małgorzata Mańka-Szulik.

19 September 2013 was an open day in the Center of Polymer and Carbon Materials of the Polish Academy of Sciences. We invited guests to our laboratories so as to present from up close the modern research equipment used in the executed domestic and international projects. Among others, the visitors had the opportunity to see a high-resolution NMR spectrometer used for qualitative and quantitative analyses of chemical compounds, a device for measuring the light dispersed by nanoobjects in solutions, or modern mass spectrometers applied mainly to the research into the structure of polymers and of the low-molecular products of their degradation.

In short
The Center belongs to category A of scientific facilities in Poland. It was established on January 1, 2007 as a result of a merger of the Center of Polymer Chemistry of PAN in Zabrze and the Institute of Carbochemistry of PAN in Gliwice – two centers of the Polish Academy of Sciences which, for many years, had been conducting systematic work on the production and properties of macromolecular polymer and carbon materials.
