Material characterisation

The department is able to define the quality and precise composition of the materials and alloys proposed, but also to control and measure certain properties and characteristics such as hardness, mechanical and chemical resistance, optical properties as well as the analysis of microstructures (metallographic examinations of the phases, inclusions, etc).

The scientific team is at your disposal to carry out any type of analysis in widest range of sectors of activity. We are specialists in the analysis of metals (stainless steel, precious metals, copper metals, titanium, etc.), but also in ceramics, cermets and polymers, as well as in the search for micro pollutants, contaminants and surface pollution. Our many years of experience and knowledge enable us to help you find solutions for improvement following the analyses carried out. We also offer a support service: you come with your incriminated components and you can watch live the SEM/EDX analysis with one of our scientists.
