The laboratory is equipped with instruments to determine thermal properties such as heat capacity, thermal stability, and thermal conductivity. Techniques employed include Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), Transient Hot Bridge (THB), halogen dryer analysis, among others.
A further focus lies in particle and emulsion characterization. The laboratory can measure particle and droplet size distributions as well as emulsion stability. Instruments used for these analyses include the Beckman Coulter, Helos KR from Sympatec, Lumisizer, and a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM).
In addition, analysis methods and equipment are available for determining density, viscosity (rheometer), chemical composition (GC/MS and FTIR), and for performing Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA).
Recently, the laboratory has acquired an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), enabling non-destructive testing of polycrystalline and amorphous materials.
Thanks to this broad range of analytical techniques, the lab can analyze many types of liquids and solids in fields such as medical technology, chemicals, metals, plastics, food, materials science, environmental technology, and energy technology.
