Understand your materials and improve your products
Enhance your product development with characterization and surface analysis
The microstructure of a material may have a significant impact on the properties. Features like surface texture, holes (porosity), or how pure the material is, can greatly influence the performance. Therefore, it is important to understand these details when developing a product. Whether it is studying the coating on a surface, checking how porous a material is, or seeing how ingredients are spread throughout your materials, these insights may help improve performance.
At the Danish Technological Institute, we specialize in material analysis and characterization. Using a wide range of techniques, we deliver precise and reliable results tailored to your needs.
How we can help you
Visualize surface structure and provide information on the composition and distribution of elements
using scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX).
Provide precise answers regarding the appearance of your material beneath the surface
using an ion beam electron microscope (FIB-SEM).
Read more about how we use FIB-SEM
Identify the material and evaluate the purity
using infra-red spectroscopy or X-ray diffraction.
Visualize the inner structure and provide information on distribution of ingredients without destroying the sample
using micro computed tomography (Micro-CT).
We will always find the best solutions suited for you and combine the needed techniques to answer your questions. If you have any questions about our methods, please feel free to contact Kathrine Bjørneboe at 7220 3305 or kbj@dti.dk.
