We have recently received funding of 拢1.95m through InnovateUK to develop the facilities available within our labs, as part of the Midlands . The funding has been used to enhance and extend our range of equipment and laboratory space.
The STA functions as both a calorimeter and thermogravimetric analyser, measuring heat flow and weight change simultaneously
The TMA easily and rapidly measures sample displacement to nanometre precision (growth, shrinkage, movement, etc.) as a function of temperature, time, and applied force
The Calvet Calorimeter determines of a wide range of properties including enthalpy, melting energy, specific heat, glass point, crystallinity, reaction enthalpy and thermal stability
Rapid measurement of the thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity of various kinds of solids, powders and liquids
Determines the thermal conductivity of a wide range of low-to-medium thermal conductivity materials by using guarded heat flow method
Used for measuring the adsorption of refrigerants on adsorbents with controlled temperatures from -20掳C to 150掳C and pressures up to 100 bar
Determines fluid viscosity over a range of temperatures from below 0藲C to above 150藲C
Used for find phase transitions and calculating the specific heat capacity of materials
Thermal Conductivity testing of low-conductivity materials
