Raw Materials Research Infrastructure
At Aalto University, we focus to process, characterize and recycle primary and secondary raw materials and to search for new cutting-edge material replacements for e.g. future sustainable technologies.
About the infrastructure
RawMatters at Aalto University covers the research facilities at the School of Chemical Engineering that operate in the field of inorganic materials (metals, oxides etc.).
This means focus on metals and ceramics at bulk or nano-level, in solid or aqueous environments.
The research enabled by the infra can be divided to materials science and chemistry, electrochemistry, metal processing and recycling.
Access and Pricing
There is a wide range of equipment available placed in different locations at the relevant departments.
Due to the great variance in the equipment available also the operation can require more or less training and in some cases the analysis will be conducted by the trained staff only.
Equipment is available (within free capacity) for researchers from companies and research institutes with Equipment use agreement. For more information please contact Jaana Rich, jaana.rich(at)aalto.fi, +358 50 408 1988
There is a wide range of equipment available for synthesis, analysis and characterization of inorganic materials within the RAMI-RawMatters infrastructure.
