Materials Characterization

The Materials Characterization Lab houses more than 15 different characterization tools which allow researchers to identify a number of materials properties such as (but certainly not limited to) the following:

  • physical properties
    • hardness
    • strength
    • density
    • surface area
    • particle size
  • atomic and molecular structure
    • elemental analysis
    • grain size
    • phase identification
  • thermal properties
    • melting point
    • glassy transition
    • heat capacity
    • thermal expansion

The MCL staff would love to help you get the materials answers you need. Visit us at  mcl.mse.utah.edu
