Characterization & Testing

In materials science, Characterization & testing covers very wide range of fields, typically including:

Chemical
  • GC, MS, NMR, LC, GPC, ICP-AES, ICP-MS, and some  other common tests are included in other categories.
Electrical/Magnetical
  • Impedance, Dielectric constant, 4 point probe for resistance measurement, EMI shielding, Hall effect, Static
Electrochemical
  • Electrochemical: CV measurement (1, 2)
Mechanical
Optical
  • XRD, FTIR, Raman, Microscope, Colormeter, UPS/XPS, Ellipsometer, Gloss, Transmittance/Clarity/Haze, Scattering for particle size distribution, Refractive Index
Rheology
  • Rheology:
Surface Analysis
  • Surface Analysis: Roughness, Contact Angle, ToF-SIMS, XPS, XRF, AES, SEM-EDS, Surface Energy
Thermal
  • Glass transition temperature, CTE, DSC, TMA, TGA, Thermal conductivity, Thermal shrinkage
