The contact angle is the angle which is formed at the three-phase interface between a solid, a liquid drop and air or another gas. Such measurements can be used to determine wettability, which provides an indication of how effectively a liquid will spread over a surface.

A Hauzer HTC 1000-4/ ABS (Arc Bond Sputter) coating unit is housed in the laboratory based at the NTCPVD. This unit is primarily a research, development and pilot production machine

The aim of this project is to develop innovative thermal imaging solutions to assess and monitor inflammation and surgical tissues' reaction and the time taken for them to settle down after skeletal surgeries.

This study aims to develop accelerometry techniques in order to accurately measure the body's posture and movements and use signal processing and artificial intelligence methods to analyse and interpret the information.

This case study looks at how an Innovation Voucher from Innovate UK led to a long-term collaboration with an industrial partner

The ability of well-dispersed organomodified clays to enhance the fire retardency of thermoplastic polymers is well established, but thermoset polyester has received relatively little attention

Combining swelling clays with certain types of polymers and plasticisers, to form sustainable coatings, results in a significant increase of barrier properties as well as flexibility and durability

This 'Innovatial' project focuses on the development of protective coatings for a new generation of lightweight titanium gamma aluminide materials that are in high demand in modern aircraft and cars

High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HIPIMS) has been developed on rotating PVD magnetron sources for uniform deposition on 200mm single wafer tools for barrier and seed layer deposition in through silicon vias (TSV)

Researchers at Sheffield Hallam University have been looking into a robotic solution to help people with advancing dementia to maintain safe exercise regimes
