Notice Title

2243/HP - Thermogravimetric Analyser and Differential Scanning Calorimeter (TG-DSC)

Notice Description

The University of Sheffield is out to purchase a Thermogravimetric Analyser and Differential Scanning Calorimeter (TG-DSC) for the Department of Materials Science and Engineering. The required instrument must be capable of simultaneously analysing heat flow and changes in mass under heating. This enables the identification of phase transitions, structural transitions, thermal events such as combustion, significant mass loss events (e.g. loss of water from a system) and volatilisation of elements during heating. This range of information is vital for understanding the novel synthetic routes under development, and will also give insights into the kinetic vs thermodynamic processes which govern synthesis of functional materials. This covers a huge variety of timely research, in the case for functional oxides, including Li-ion and Na-ion battery materials, thermoelectrics, piezoelectrics, and future materials for fusion. Functional oxides are of perennial interest and are currently an area for growth with e.g. the EPSRC. The full specification and ITT can be downloaded by registering and expressing your interest on the University's e-tendering system https://in-tendhost.co.uk/Sheffield If you have any questions or comments in relation to this tender they must be submitted via the In-Tend System, this can be accessed at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/Sheffield Completed tenders must be returned through the in-Tend e-tendering system. The closing date for receipt of tenders is Thursday 30th May 2019 at 12 noon (UK time). Additional information: All tender documents can be accessed at: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/Sheffield
