Composite Laboratory
Aim:
The Composite Laboratory was established to conduct experimental studies focused on the development, production, and characterization of polymer matrix composite materials. The laboratory supports the production of high-performance, lightweight, and functional composite materials, the improvement of production processes, and research and development activities for industrial applications. Within this scope, the laboratory carries out processes such as the homogeneous mixing of filler/reinforcement materials (e.g., nanomaterials, ceramic particles, metal powders, etc.) of different types and ratios with thermoplastic matrices, obtaining composite materials in granular form, and preparing composite samples.
