Chemical Engineering Partnerships

The Chemical Engineering and Advanced Materials analysis suite (CEAM-AS) encompasses a range of surface and chemical analysis equipment located in the School, including:

• particle size and zeta potential analysis
• surface area and porosity (BET)
• high sensitivity gas chromatography, FTIR, and ICP
• high-temperature Raman Microscopy

There's a small charge to cover consumables for all equipment. For enquiries, please contact Rob Dixon.

ACMA is a team of analytical specialists with considerable experience in the characterisation of materials and minerals used in a variety of engineering and physical science applications. We are also able to characterise geological and other natural samples.

Services include:

• Electron Microscopy (SEMs)
• X-ray Diffraction
• Chemical Analysis

We have expertise in all aspects of applied Chemical Science and Engineering. A wide range of high specification equipment will support you throughout your course or project.
