Lab-Tools Ltd. Nano- to Micro- Science & Metrology, Scientific Instrumentation and Software.

Lab-Tools Ltd. is a micro/SME spin-off company specialising in nano-science, nano-metrology and instrumentation design.​

 

Nano-science :

The study of the nano-scale properties of liquids in pores and at interfaces, primarily using NMR & SANS;

Application of the Gibbs equations to the nano-scale dynamics of liquids/ ices;

Neutron Diffraction Cryoporometry to study crystal phases.

​

​Nano-metrology :

Bulk nano-scale to micro-scale structural characterisation;

NMR Cryoporometry to measure pore-size distributions, surface areas and pore volumes;

Neutron Scattering SANS & modelling techniques to measure nano-structural dimensions.

 

​Instrumentation :

Highly compact precision MK4 & MK5  TD NMR multinuclear Spectrometers;

​Nano- through meso- to micro- pore-size distributions measured using NMR Cryoporometry : CryoP 7, 8 & 9

​

Cost-sensitive materials-science physical characterisation by compact benchtop NMR - novel techniques, no cryogens required :

 

1) Cost sensitive physical materials-science characterisation by NMR;

2 Unusually high performance nano- to micro- pore-size distribution characterisation, without cryogens;

3) Cost sensitive moderate-range variable-temperature physical materials-science characterisation, by NMR, without cryogens or recirculating chillers;
