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
MiCRoN
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
P+CVD
Nowadays, coatings with good wear and corrosion resistance consist in high thickness Ni or hard Cr coatings from electrochemical processes
The use of confocal raman microspectroscopy in depth profiling polymer films
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
Oilfield chemistry - controlling sand production
The objective of this project is to bind sand grains together whilst maintaining formation porosity and fluid flow
Polymer characterisation - Transport mechanisms
The competitive movement of small molecules through polymers, membranes and constitutes an important phenomenon in many applications
Energy Saving Opportunity Scheme (ESOS)
The Energy Saving Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) is a mandatory energy assessment scheme for large organisations in the UK.
