All our labs have designated contact persons. SINTEF builds and operates important research infrastructure and we have over 100 laboratories that form the basis for our research. From zero-emission buildings, to ocean basins, nano, CO2, electrical engineering and full-scale aquaculture sites - world-leading laboratories, from ocean space to outer space.
SINTEF Ocean offers chemical analysis of emerging and priority pollutants, petroleum products and biomolecules. With our advanced analytical platform, we tailor analytical solutions to each project. We co-operate closely with laboratories across...
The laboratory in Oslo is used to characterize fundamental transport properties (such as permeability, diffusivity and solubility) for membrane and barrier materials.
We can test and characterise a wide range of different materials in our laboratories. Materials and components are bent, tensioned and compressed, and go through fracture- and fatigue tests.
This lab has equipment and infrastructure to carry out ageing experiments with polymer and composite materials (and products) in different environments. Hence, in this lab we perform experiments which simulate how the properties of a material change...
This lab has instruments for characterizing polymer and composite materials (and products made of these materials) in terms of chemical and physical structure and properties. This includes special instruments for characterizing surfaces (chemical...
We offer both standardized and tailored mechanical testing solutions for a wide range of polymer and composite materials, components and industrial applications.
In this lab we produce test specimens and simple product prototypes of polymer and composite materials. Effects of processing and recycling can be studied. Furthermore, new material formulations can be compounded, e.g. by blending polymers or by...
In this lab we synthesize polymer materials from monomers. We also modify commercially available materials and make formulations for tailored applications. A third field of R&D is chemical degradation studies to establish routes for chemical...
