The Quenching/Deformation Dilatometer L78 RITA is especially suitable for the determination of TTT, CHT and CCT diagrams. The instrument can perform measurements under vacuum, inert, oxidized, reduced atmospheres.
Thermal Analysis platform
It allows thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and simultaneous thermal analysis (STA) to be performed. They are crucial in the study of thermal behavior of materials, such as thermal stability and sintering temperatures of metal powders. (shared from ME dept)
Bruker G4 Phoenix TDS for measuring hydrogen content in metals with an accuracy of 0.1 ppm. This is an essencial facilty for studying the hydrogen embrittle or delayed fracture of adcanced high strength steels.
The PARSTAT 3000A-DX Bipotentiostat combines 2 high performance, independent potentiostats with floating capability in a single chassis. Studies of corrosion and hydrogen embrittlement can be performed.
The Proof Ring test systems are broadly used to study stress corrosion cracking and hydrogen embrittlement research. Constant load test can be carried out under ambient conditions or with an environmental chamber. Different types of specimens could be tested with these proof rings to fulfill other demanding requirements.
The SmartLab is the most novel high-resolution X-ray diffractometer available today. SmartLab employs a new rotating anode X-ray generator that is specifically optimized for the optics and geometries, allowing SmartLab to achieve three times higher intensity than current products (shared from ME Dept).
