The original scientific article "Safety related key performance indicators for securing long-term business development: a case study" (Gerbec Marko, Kontić Branko; Safety Science, 2017) was published in a recognized scientific journal. The article describes in a detail a suggested approach for selection of the key performance indicators for the aspect of the process safety into the dynamic risk assessment on a case of the implementation monitoring of the long term development strategy of port operator organization Luka Koper d.d., Slovenia. The issue is how to use the results of the risk assessment into the management's decisions. In the article we enhanced the case risk model by the use of the Bayesian networks in a way that it dynamically considers important qualities of the organization's safety management system. We also presented why dynamic risk models are more demanding vs. conventional static risk models.
F.01 Acquisition of new practical knowledge, information and skills
COBISS.SI-ID: 29641767In e-EROS: encyclopedia of reagents for organic synthesis we presented XeF2 as a versatile reagent, which is used in very different areas of organic synthesis such as reactions with aromatic aldehydes or ketones, with organosulfur, organoselenium, and organotellurium compounds, organic iodine compounds and others. The synthesis of organoxenon(II) compounds was described. Beside its versatile use in organic synthesis, we pointed out the influence of chosen solvent and vessel on the course of the reactions. It is worth mentioned that XeF2 is also important reagent in the other research fields such as inorganic chemistry, material chemistry and even in the commercial devices in which it is used as an etching gas, primarily in the Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS).

COBISS.SI-ID: 30427687Vast experiences of the department in the research field of fluorine inorganic chemistry resulted in chapters in the book "Modern Synthesis Processes and Reactivity of Fluorinated Compounds", the third volume in Elsevier's series "Progress in Fluorine Science Series", which was published in 2017. It describes photochemical syntheses of various fluorides in anhydrous hydrogen fluoride. The book is the third volume of this series and provides information on the latest synthesis routes to fluorocompounds and the involved reaction mechanisms. Special attention is given to the unique reactivity of fluorine and fluorinated media, along with the correlation of those properties to valuable applications of fluorinated compounds.

COBISS.SI-ID: 30214183The graduate school “Fluorine as a Key Element” funded by two participating universities (Freie Universitaet Berlin and Humboldt Universitaet zu Berlin) offers the graduate students an educational program that features the introduction of fluorine into diverse chemical structures with the aim of discovering novel compounds that will have applications in catalysis, materials science as well as in pharmaceutical and biological chemistry. It organizes seminars where students can discussed with invited speakers from all over the world working on various fluorine fields. Two members of the research group Inorganic Chemistry and technology participated as invited speakers (G. Tavčar and Z. Mazej)
B.05 Guest lecturer at an institute/university
COBISS.SI-ID: 30864423In the TV show, the member of the program group (G. Tavčar) presented fluor as the most reactive element in the periodic system and explained in the interview the differences between fluor and fluoride. He also presented topics related to fluorine chemistry and products with this element that are highly recognizable in the public: toothpaste, perfluorinated polymers in coatings of textiles, pharmaceuticals ... The laboratory and its equipment in which the majority of the research in the field of inorganic materials containing fluoride are synthesized was also presented. Participation in such TV shows makes an important contribution to getting to know a specific field of chemistry and informs the public about the importance of research and research results that can lead to new products in everyday life.
