By applying our experience and expertise in polymer analysis, we are able to obtain useful insights into polymer behaviour and suggest solutions to material or processing challenges

There are a large number of commercially available additives that enable polymers to perform important functions over a wide range of conditions

We have extensive experience of incorporating clays into a range of petroleum derived polymers including polypropylene, polyamide, polyacrylates, polycaprolactone, polyvinylalcohol as well as biopolymers including starch, polylactic acid, chitosan and gelatin

Sheffield Hallam University is set to deliver world class research and innovation capability to drive next generation physical vapour deposition (PVD) processing following major investment in full digitisation of equipment and technology.

A novel wound dressings which is active against MRSA for four days has been developed in collaboration with colleagues from the Biomolecular Sciences Research Centre at Sheffield Hallam

In this work, we are using molecular dynamics simulation to investigate the principles by which highly anisotropic nanostructures nucleate and grow

In collaboration with Prof Chris Breen and colleagues, we have been using molecular-resolution simulations of clay galleries to investigate detailed structural behaviours that underpin coating treatments used for food packaging applications.

At the Centre for Infrastructure Management, we can monitor and evaluate the in-service performance of buildings incorporating new energy efficient technologies such as photo-voltaic, solar thermal hot water and ground source heat pumps.

The competitive movement of small molecules through polymers, membranes and constitutes an important phenomenon in many applications

The degradation of polymers by UV, heat, moisture or γ-irradiation is of significant importance in many different spheres of life
