We tailor HIPIMS-based treatment processes to suit applications on today's market and commercialise HIPIMS-based processes for deposition of metals, carbon, nitrides, oxides, carbonitrides and for substrate pretreatment.

Coating testing research at the Materials and Engineering Research Institute covers a wide range of subjects including corrosion testing, abrasion testing and fatigue limit determination

We carry out comprehensive analysis of coating structure on flat and complex-shaped parts with a variety of characterisation methods.

We have comprehensive expertise in HIPIMS pretreatment and coating technology. Our deposition systems are available for pilot industrial scale production, process development, test of concept and fundamental research.

Arc discharges are used for pretreatment of substrates prior to coating deposition

Papers available for the Interface micro structure engineering by high power impulse magnetron sputtering for the enhancement of adhesion

Hydrogels are crosslinked polymers that contain large amounts of water. We have developed a novel hydrogel loaded with Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) which can be maintained as a liquid ex vivo and be injected into the affected tissue site where body temperature triggers in situ gelation.

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

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

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