Surface Analysis / Surface Science

These sophisticated techniques provide the tools necessary to explore the surface and subsurface chemistry of materials and components as well as measure wetting characteristics or solids and liquids using specialised contact angle techniques.


Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) / EDX
is an extremely high magnification microscope which provides images and elemental analysis top down or in cross-section.

Optical Microscopy and Image Analysis

details the variety of Optical Microscopes in the laboratory used to physically inspect the structure of materials and components as well as Image Analysis techniques to generate measurements and data from these images.  The Image Analysis techniques also are applicable to SEM micrographs.  


Chemical Analysis
gives a large range of chemical analysis techniques for quantitative and trace analysis of solids, liquids and gases for organics and inorganics. Other facilities available in the laboratory are detailed.

Mechanical Properties
details the laboratory's capabilities for tensile and hardness testing of materials to measure performance under various types of loading as well as metallurgical sample preparation techniques.
