Nanotribiological characterisation

TI 950 TriboIndenter nanoindenter

Automated, high throughput instrument with electrochemical cell

Description

The kit can measure the elastic-plastic properties of individual microstructures of traditional materials and thin films, the viscoelastic properties of soft matter, the interfacial adhesion of ultra-thin films, and temperature-dependent properties up to 800°C.

Uses / Applications

The TI 950 TriboIndenter nanoindenter has been developed as an automated, high throughput instrument to support numerous nanomechanical and nanotribological characterisation experiments over the nano- and micro-scales. Such as measuring the elastic-plastic properties of individual microstructures of traditional materials and thin films, viscoelastic properties of soft matter, interfacial adhesion of ultra-thin films, or temperature-dependent properties up to 800°C. The Ti950 also features an electrochemical cell for testing samples in fluids with electrochemical properties.
