Biomedical applications of polymers and nanocomposites
The PCAS group have developed a number of materials for use in the biomedical arena
Characterisation of polymers, minerals and organic-inorganic complexes
We have a range of methods that can be used to analyse polymers, minerals and organic-inorganic complexes
Polymer characterisation - Gelation mechanisms
The ability of a polymer to gel when subjected to stimuli is of considerable importance in the production of smart polymers
Shape Memory Polymers
Shape Memory Polymers (SMP), as their title suggest, have the intriguing ability to change from a temporary intermediate shape back to their fixed, permanent shape
Intumescent coatings
Intumescent coatings are used to protect structural steelwork during a fire. These coatings expand 50 to 100 times when heated in air
Characterisation of polymers and nanocomposites
The characterisation of polymers requires the use of several analytical techniques to gather the required information about a polymer's structure or chemistry.
