Sophisticated Analytical Instrument Facility
About SAIF
CSIR-AMPRI is equipped with up to date R&D facilities in the area of material synthesis, processing and characterization. Some more sophisticated facilities are also in a process of being set up at the institute in order to carry out material processing and characterization with an improved degree of precision, especially with regard to nano structured material development. Keeping application in mind, the R&D facilities have been grouped as the ones meant for mechanical, physical, chemical, thermal, electrical, rheological & tribological property characterization. Other sets of facilities include those for powder processing, primary processing like melting, secondary processing such as heat treatment & deformation, and micro structural studies.
