Laboratory of Inorganic and Physical Chemistry Hasselt University
The main activity of the research group of Inorganic and Physical Chemistry is the study of environmentally friendly, chemical methods to the synthesis of high-tech, nanostructured inorganic materials.
A water based sol-gel method is developed and optimized successfully for the preparation of ferroelectric, piezoelectric, conductive and dielectric metal oxide powders and thin films (with thicknesses from several hundreds down to a few ...
Materials and Chemistry Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The Department 'Materials and Chemistry' (MACH) of the Faculty of Engineering of the VUB, combines the research units 'Physical Chemistry and Polymer Science' (FYSC), the 'High Resolution NMR Centre' (HNMR) and 'Electrochemical and Surface Engineering' (SURF). FYSC research activities are focused on '(molecular and supramolecular) structure - processing - property' relations in polymers for developing multi-functional materials with improved ...
Materials and Packaging Research &Services Hasselt University
Materials and Packaging: Research & Services (MPR&S)
Expertise
The research spearhead 'packaging technology' is broadly defined with a focus on characterization and optimization of materials/packaging. From the services and research, we support the education within the program of engineering technology in chemistry - option food processing and packaging.
Detailed information about the activities of the ...
Materials and Surface Science & Engineering Vrije Universiteit Brussel
There is a historical tradition in the field of materials research in Flanders, and in particular metallic materials. The research biotope is unusually versatile and includes several leading actors. Besides! The universities with extensive faculties or departments of materials science (including UGent, VUB) consist of various knowledge institutes such as OGAS, CRM, VITO, SCK and Flamac, which are active in the field of (metallic) material ...
Materials Physics Hasselt University
The Materials Physics (IMOMAF) research group focuses on developing innovative solutions to successfully bridge the gap between fundamental research and industrially compatible materials systems and processes. This is done in a wide range of fields, from nano and quantum physics to electronics, advanced sensing, and healthcare materials. Cooperation with industrial partners plays a crucial role in the IMOMAF research group.
The ...
Mechanics of Materials and Constructions Vrije Universiteit Brussel
In the Department of 'Mechanics of Materials and Constructions' (MEMC) fundamental and applied research is developed on the following themes: 1. Durability - Reliability of polymer based composite systems; 2. Mixed numerical-experimental techniques or inverse methods; 3. Mineral polymers and their composites; 4. Damage mechanics on material and structural levels; 5. Non-destructive testing and experimental mechanics; 6. Design and analysis of ...
Medical Electronics University of Antwerp
Metallurgy, Electrochemistry and Materials Science Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The research activities of the Department of Metallurgy, Electrochemistry and Materials Science are mainly oriented towards surface engineering of materials. This implies the study of surface treatments to tailor the surface properties: mechanical, electrical, catalytic, optical and corrosion properties and the use of surface analytical techniques for characterisation of surfaces and interfaces before and after surface treatments. The study ...
Nuclear Technology Centre Hasselt University
The research group NuTec (contact: sonja.schreurs@xios.be) has research domains 'environmental energy research' and 'development and application of nuclear equipment'. Multidisciplinary research in an applied context is paramount in both domains. There from that environment, energy, security (chemical, toxicological, radio chemical, nuclear,...), economic feasibility, legislation and regulation are closely involved in this applied ...
