Material Analysis & Polymer Testing Lab

Advanced Spectroscopy and Microscopy Techniques

FTIR Spectroscopy: Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is a powerful tool for identifying chemical compounds in materials. By analyzing the infrared absorption spectra, we can determine the molecular structure and composition of polymers. This non-destructive technique is invaluable for quality control, material verification, and failure analysis.

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM): SEM provides high-resolution images of material surfaces, revealing detailed structural and compositional information. This technique is essential for analyzing microstructures, coatings, and surface treatments, helping to identify defects and optimize material properties.

Comprehensive Thermal Analysis for Material Stability

Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA): TGA is a crucial method for studying thermal stability and composition. By measuring weight changes under controlled temperature conditions, we can determine the thermal degradation temperatures and the composition of complex materials.

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC): DSC measures heat flow associated with thermal transitions in materials. This includes melting points, glass transition temperatures, and crystallization behaviors. Understanding these properties is key to optimizing polymer formulations for specific applications.

Mechanical Testing for Real-World Applications

Vibration Testing: Vibration testing evaluates how materials and products respond to mechanical vibrations. This is crucial for industries like automotive and aerospace, where components must endure dynamic stresses without failing. Our advanced vibration testing capabilities ensure that materials can withstand the rigors of real-world conditions.

Impact Testing: Impact testing assesses a material’s ability to absorb energy during a collision. This test is vital for safety-critical applications, ensuring that materials can withstand sudden impacts without compromising performance. We provide detailed insights into material toughness and energy absorption characteristics.

Ensuring Safety with Flammability Testing

Flammability Testing: Our flammability testing services help manufacturers select materials that meet stringent fire safety standards. By evaluating how materials ignite and burn, we provide crucial data for applications in construction, transportation, and consumer electronics.
