Differential Scanning Calorimetry can be used to characterise and compare materials; identify and confirm purity, assess thermal stability and evaluate product-application conditions.

The Materials and Engineering Research Institute within Sheffield Hallam is offering thermal analysis (TGA, TG-MS, ATD-GCMS) services to internal and external businesses.

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

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

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.

We have developed a novel pNIPAM-DMAc-Laponite® hydrogel loaded with hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HAPna), which can be maintained as a liquid ex vivo and be injected into the affected bone tissue site where body temperature triggers in situ gelation

We have a wide range of capabilities for testing concrete at the Materials and Engineering Research Institute

Our Senior Lecturer in Materials Engineering, Dr Paul Bingham, was recently made a Fellow of the Society of Glass Technology

The ceramics theme, run by Drs Hywel Jones and Paul Bingham, aims to provide enhanced capability for the much needed delivery of ceramics and glass related consultancy, contract research and knowledge transfer projects (KTPs) by the University.
