Maria-Magdalena Zaharescu (born 1938) is a Romanian chemist, specializing in the physical chemistry of oxide systems.

Zaharescu was a Senior Researcher and Head of Department at the Ilie Murgulescu Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Romanian Academy in Bucharest. In 2001, she was elected a corresponding member of the Romanian Academy and became a full member in June 2015. On December 1, 2017, she was awarded a Knight of the Order of the Star of Romania.

She was one of the 100 women scientists featured in "Successful Women Ceramic and Glass Scientists and Engineers: 100 Inspirational Profiles" by Lynnette Madsen (2016).

Scientific Interests

Her scientific interests include:

  • Physical chemistry of oxide systems (reactions mechanisms, thermal phase equilibria, structure-properties correlations).
  • Sol-gel science (sol-gel chemistry, nanostructured oxide films and powders, inorganic-organic hybrids, nanocomposites, oxide nanotubes). She introduced and developed the field of sol-gel research in Romania.
  • Vitreous oxide systems with special properties (thermally and chemically stable)

Education

She graduated from the Babeș-Bolyai University, Faculty of Chemistry, and received her PhD from the Institute of Chemistry, both in Cluj-Napoca.
