The materials laboratory


The materials laboratory engages in identif
ication, characterization, and comparison of materials in addition the laboratory performs fracture analysis and testing of defects in materials.
The laboratory specializes in
detecting and testing trace amounts of substances.
The laboratory specializes in
detecting and testing microscopic materials that are not visible.
The laboratory tests
include chemical and physical tests that yield comprehensive information on the chemical structure and properties of the materials
