Corrosion and Structural Integrity
We are highly active in the research and analysis of materials applicable to the offshore, aerospace, automotive and electrical power industries
Corrosion and structural integrity facilities
A list of facilities for corrosion and structural integrity testing for various construction materials
New sol-gel coatings fight corrosion and improve environmental friendliness
Researchers from Sheffield Hallam University’s Materials and Engineering Research Institute are developing a range of customised sol-gel coatings to be used on a range of products
Failure analysis
We can carry out analysis of corrosion-induced failures with the intent of identifying the cause in order to reduce the likelihood of future occurrences
Assessment of material suitability
If you need to understand the performance of different materials used within specific applications where corrosion is a potential, we can undertake analysis of your candidate materials

HIPIMS technology underpins commercial success
High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering is a technology which uses short, very high power pulses to apply protective coatings to a range of different surfaces
MERI Student Day a Huge Success!
his year’s MERI Student Seminar Day saw a record number of 2nd year research students giving a talk, 17 in total. The talks were of a very high standard and at the end of the day two 1st prizes were awarded to Helga Razaghi and Itai Vutabwarova
Building bridges with local authorities
Bridge Inspectors training events are being delivered by Sheffield Hallam University, one of the first in the country to teach the new code of practice for bridge inspectors
New materials engineering course a big success!
Sheffield Hallam University is now offering a full time undergraduate BEng (Hons) in Materials Engineering. The course is running in its first year and has proved very popular with ten students currently enrolled and more interested for next academic year
