Materials: The application of texture analysis on the latest developments

New products that take new forms and have innovative properties require new testing solutions to ensure that the purpose for which they are designed is met and their structural or mechanical requirements match their intended location of use. 

Nothing is more exciting that the potential to create new display technologies that transform into various shapes at the stage of use such as folding, rolling or stretching like a rubber band by the use of special adhesive compositions. Or, how about an unmanned vehicle whose flexible body is designed to mimic tilt sensing inspired from the way jellyfish move or the creation of aqueous fragrance release gel formulations with considerable strength, elasticity and mouldability. These novel developments need testing so that their properties can be quantified for comparison with any future redesign, modification or as a quality control benchmark when going into production.
