Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a type of Scanning Probe Microscopy that can be operated in air or water

A list of equipment for Analysis and coating characterisation testing at the Materials and Engineering Research Institute

An introduction to MERI's use of X-ray diffraction to measure the diffraction beam intensity, d-spacings and various structural properties of crystalline materials

Thermal conductivity ('k value') is a property of a material that determines how much heat is conducted through it for a given temperature difference

The Centre for Corrosion Technology has the equipment and expertise to carry out both accelerated environmental and electrochemical tests, as appropriate to your needs.

The tribometer is applied to evaluate the friction and wear properties of various materials, such as hard coatings, hardened metals and ceramics, soft and solid lubricant materials.

The wavelength dispersive Philips PW2440 sequential X-ray fluorescence spectrometer provides analytical facilities for the determination of concentrations of elements present in solids, powders and liquids

The scanning Kelvin probe is a non-contact, non-destructive instrument designed to measure the surface work function difference between conducting, coated, or semi-conducting materials and a metallic probe

In microscope applications, many of the imaging and vision techniques that are generally applied in industrial macro-environments are not suitable because of several constraints imposed by the micro-environment

There are a wide range of mechanical testing machines used to test the fatigue for a wide range of different materials within the engineering department. The machines are suitable for a wide range of applications, whether for testing the material or component.
