1. Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Research Support Facilities

Established in 1990, Research Support Facilities, the materials characterization lab, is located in the Engineering Hall 1 351, and is actively supporting research based on the theory of device analysis and analysis of practical materials. The main research equipment for analyzing is TEM (JEM 2010), FE-SEM, SEM, AFM, GC-MSD, Reometer/Viscometer, Laser Particle Analyzer System. FT-IR/ATR, Ion Chromatograph, UV.

2. Current Status

• 1) Equipment management and operations
• 2) Equipment purchase and repair
• 3) Support in materials characterization
    - Analysis of inorganics: Identification of the structures, Qualitative and quantitative analysis
    - Analysis of organics: Identification of the structures, Qualitative and quantitative analysis
    - Analysis of surface and physical properties: Surface and physical properties analysis of materials
• 4) Consulting
  - Regular training for research equipment and supporting equipment according to analysis of specific components, etc.
