Research

• Studies of supermolecular structure of polymers using mainly visible light and electron microscopy.
• Evaluation of the phase structure of multiphase polymer systems and qualitative estimation of interfacial adhesion.
• Morphological changes in absorption of mechanical energy.

The observation techniques used include visible light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Classic and newly developed techniques are used for sample preparation. Image analysis technique and preparation techniques for any kind and shape of samples are available.
