The Physical Testing Team provides support and expertise in the field of Material Characterization. 

Thermal and electrical behaviour, colour and transparency, granulometry, density are critical parameters in material science.

Those measurements are performed at every step of the development of new products: synthesis, processing, commercial development.

Our activity focuses mainly on the polymers and composites from the Materials BU, and the support of growth platforms, such as batteries, green hydrogen, automotive, aerospace,...

The customers of Physical Testing  labs are: 

• R&I (Research and Innovation)

• CTD (Customer Technical Development)

• Production Plants 

• Thermal Analyses (TGA, DSC, TMA and thermal conductivity)
• Electrical Analyses (Resistivity, Permittivity and Dielectric Loss Factor, BreakDown Voltage)
• Optical Analyses (Transmittance, Haze, Colour)
• Particle Size Determination (PSD) via Laser Diffraction (LD)
• Density and Angle of Repose of Powders
