methylmethacrylate, polypropylene, and polyethylene have been studied exten- 
sively. Investigations of the properties and uses of organometallic com- 
pounds have been made, particularly of compounds of lead, tin, mercury, 
titanium, and chromium. 
Other substances of interest are organic peroxide compounds, 
tetraethyl lead and other lead compounds, and deuterium compounds. The 
Institute is well grounded in radiochemical techniques and has made advances 
in equipment and techniques for chemical separation and analysis, particularly 
for polarography, vacuum gas chromatography, ion-exchange chromatography, 
chemical towers, and radiometric analysis.

Description: 
The work and staff of this facility are closely associated with the 
Chair of Chemistry at Khar'kov State University. In the field of electro- 
chemistry, the Institute has investigated electrowinning of metals in powder 
form, electrodeposition of copper, and properties of electrolytes. In 
metallurgy, the Institute has studied electrospark treatment of iron and 
the layer structure of carburized steels. 
Other studies include production of copper compounds, gas and 
liquid chromatography, ion exchange and ion-exchange materials, dyestuffs, 
calcium aluminates, binary systems of solid amines and anhydrides, solid 
organic substances, physicochemical analysis of molecules in solution, and 
thermal decomposition of formates. An adsorption pump for high-temperature
