Summary
Research facility for plastics and composites : Dynamic Mechanical Analyser and Rheometer System. The Dynamic Mechanical Analyser (DMA) and Control Stress Rheometer System is a unique set of equipment where both instruments can be run simultaneously using the same controller module. The DMA can provide quantitative and qualitative information on high spectrum of mechanical and rheological properties of materials in solid state. The Rheometer complements the DMA by providing information about pro ....Research facility for plastics and composites : Dynamic Mechanical Analyser and Rheometer System. The Dynamic Mechanical Analyser (DMA) and Control Stress Rheometer System is a unique set of equipment where both instruments can be run simultaneously using the same controller module. The DMA can provide quantitative and qualitative information on high spectrum of mechanical and rheological properties of materials in solid state. The Rheometer complements the DMA by providing information about properties of materials in liquid state. The equipment will be used both for academic research of plastic, ceramic and composite materials and for industrial projects in the areas of material processing, recycling of plastics and for building a database of material's properties.

Development of high-performance lead-free piezoelectric superlattices for environmentally-friendly and biocompatible piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers (pMUTs) applications. This program is aimed at development of environmentally friendly and biocompatible lead-free piezoelectric thin films and superlattices for the potential applications in pMUTs. The expected outcome includes deposition of BNT and BZT-based thin films and superlattices, and enhancement of their physical propert ....Development of high-performance lead-free piezoelectric superlattices for environmentally-friendly and biocompatible piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers (pMUTs) applications. This program is aimed at development of environmentally friendly and biocompatible lead-free piezoelectric thin films and superlattices for the potential applications in pMUTs. The expected outcome includes deposition of BNT and BZT-based thin films and superlattices, and enhancement of their physical properties by strain and interface engineering.Read moreRead less
