Deepen the knowledge of materials

There is a wide range of material characterization tests designed to check the physico-chemical, structural, thermal, and mechanical behavior in order to:

To meet these needs, the NeMO Lab materials characterization laboratory offers customized support to companies for the characterization of materials and their components.

Our services

NeMO Lab offers the following services on polymeric, hydrogel, rubber, foam, soft, composite, stone, and concrete materials:

Physico-chemical characterization by FT-IR, microNIR, and Raman spectroscopy
Mechanical characterization through controlled shear rheology
Dynamic Mechanical Characterization (DMA) by hybrid rheology
Thermo-mechanical characterization by rheology, thermogravimetry (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)

All tests are carried out according to the customer’s requests, and to the regulations in force. In the absence of regulatory references, the NeMO Lab also offers an ad hoc test design service.

The highly specialized NeMO Lab staff also offers support and assistance in identifying the most suitable analysis techniques for evaluating the performance of materials of interest to customers.
