Funded Activity Summary
An upgraded nanoindenter facility with in-situ Raman at high temperature. This LIEF grant aims to upgrade an existing TI950 Nanoindenter with a new system that physically couples Raman Spectroscopy system with on a shared stage that uniquely enables combined assessment of materials with sub-micrometers or spanning millimetre-sized regions from room temperature up to 800oC. The equipment with much enhanced features will be unique in Australia with the added Raman and a hot stage. The combination of Raman and nanoindentation allows the mechanical property to be correlated to physical characteristics such as chemical bonds and physical state, volume fractionation of crystallinity, amorphous and unpolymerised phases, molecular orientation, residual strain, polymer cross-linking, surface treatment effects.Funded Activity Details
