We have a range of methods that can be used to analyse polymers, minerals and organic-inorganic complexes including

• infrared spectroscopy
• infrared imaging (transmission, ATR, reflection, variable temperature)
• Raman (imaging, point mapping, variable temperature)
• full thermal analysis suite (DSC, TGA, TG-MS, DMA)
• X-ray diffraction (powders, films)
• X-ray fluorescence (borate glasses, solids, powders, liquids)

These methods can be used to identify how a material will perform under different conditions, carry out materials characterisation, understand the elements within a material and analyse a material's mechanical and thermal properties.

This service can be used to

• inform product development
• improve product durability
• gain cost savings
• solve production issues
• identify contaminants
