Michal Sedlačík deals with smart composite systems that react by changing their physico-chemical properties to external stimuli, which can be electric or magnetic fields or light pulses. These systems can find their application in many sectors, such as, among others, e.g. damping systems (not only in the automotive industry), absorbers of electromagnetic waves or systems for polishing very precise optics. Another part of his scientific interest is directed to the rheology of dispersion systems based on natural polymers. He is the co-author of 98 publications with approximately 1870 citations recorded in the Web of Science database.

Projektový tým sestává ze 22 renomovaných pracovišť. Do projektu vstupují společně univerzity, průmyslové výzkumné organizace, klastrová uskupení a soukromé firmy, které navazují na přechozí úzkou spolupráci, včetně zkušeností s řešením Center kompetencí z první i druhé výzvy. Aktivity jednotlivých partnerů jsou vzájemně úzce propojeny tak, že je možno využít výzkumných kapacit univerzit, převádět jejich poznatky do větších laboratorních a poloprovozních měřítek a po optimalizaci je transferovat do průmyslu. Poslední fáze transferu vědecko-výzkumných výsledků může probíhat kontinuálně s využitím cílených požadavků firem. Zapojení klastrových organizací do projektu navíc umožňuje širokou diseminaci vědecko-výzkumných výsledků na odbornou i laickou veřejnost.

Celý tým je koncipován tak, aby po nastavení forem spolupráce v rámci předkládaného projektu mohl dlouhodobě fungovat i po jeho ukončení.
