The ability of a polymer to gel when subjected to stimuli is of considerable importance in the production of smart polymers

Steel company AI Materials needed to meet a new requirement to improve the mechanical strength and toughness properties of the super duplex stainless steel used in industrial fasteners at low temperatures

Microscopes have very limited depth-of-focus. This imposes a variety of constraints when building imaging and vision solutions for microscopes. The MMVL vision software for the MiCRoN-project uses a geometric hashing technique to compare all images in an image stack with the scene

In collaboration with the Instituto de Cienncia y Tecnologia de Polimeros (Madrid) we have examined the extent of the surface modification of a polymeric membrane. The polymer (PVC) was modified according to the following reaction scheme

The objective of this project is to bind sand grains together whilst maintaining formation porosity and fluid flow

This project will investigate novel processes for joining high strength stainless steel grades to zinc coated mild steel which can be easily transferred and integrated cost effectively into current automotive manufacture

Corrosion tests can be performed on metals, alloys and metallic coatings, such as hot-dip and electroplated surfaces

Visual controls are a key lean manufacturing principle. Visual displays and controls help keep things running as efficiently as they were designed to run and sharing information through visual tools helps keep production running smoothly and safely

We offer a range of techniques for the characterisation of paint coatings in terms of their physical durability, mechanical properties and anti-corrosive performance
