Jana Machotova has contributed to the following studies: Thermoplastic and thermosetting latexes based on acrylic and styrene-acrylic copolymers prepared via emulsion polymerization; Ambient temperature self-crosslinking strategies of emulsion polymers and their films; Optimization of starting monomers composition and synthesis conditions, investigation of the effect of the structure and crosslinking of emulsion polymers on film-formation and properties of water-borne coatings; and Testing of chemical and structural properties of emulsion polymers and their films in terms of hydrophobicity, water, resistance, physical and mechanical properties, thermal performance and others.
