How does Analytical Chemistry Support Preservation in Cultural Heritage Studies?

An interview with Dr. Fenella G. France, to introduce the ideas behind the Plenary Lecture to be given at Pittcon 2019.

Determining Particle Size with a Table Top Microscope

The particles within a powder sample are present in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and compositions; with the requirements on their analysis and characterization being just as diverse.

Nanomechanical Testing of High-Temperature Coatings

Prof. Mathias Goeken and his team work with metals and their mechanical properties, developing new materials for high temperature applications such as high temperature coatings

$Using X-Ray Diffraction to Study the Crystal Growth of New Materials$

Using X-Ray Diffraction to Study the Crystal Growth of New Materials

In this interview, Professor Hans-Conrad zur Loye describes how he uses single crystal X-ray diffraction to test crystal quality, and collect full data sets on new, high quality crystals.

DNP-NMR Application Highlight: Studying Surface Moieties of a Catalyst

ntermolecular forces play an important role in determining the properties of a substance. It is therefore highly desirable to be able to characterize the atomic-level structural detail of surfaces in order to know how they will behave in particular conditions.
