As part of a world-leading institute for innovative research into atomistic and particulate based manufacturing techniques for the production of protective and active surface coatings, we have established a world-wide reputation for our expertise in design, testing and analysis of coating systems and surface treatments for components subjected to extreme high temperatures in hostile environments.
Our main research activities relate to the design and manufacture of protective coatings to allow engineering systems to operate in harsher and more demanding environments, the development of in-situ diagnostics (Smart Coatings), and the design of surface engineering solutions at the systems level to permit full integration of the coating system into the manufacturing process.
