MATERIALS SCIENCE

New materials such as ultra-fine particles, optical catalysts, hybrid materials and polymer gels are attracting the attention of research and development. In order to show the characteristics of these new materials, not only are manufacturing and forming processes important, but so are the analytical skills and analytic technologies that evaluate them. HORIBA contributes to the growth of the industry by supporting the development of cutting-edge materials based on the latest analysis systems and application development.
