nickel coating of polmer microbeads

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Richard Ozanich
Project type
Exploratory Research
I would like to coat pure nickel on 20-30 micron diameter spherical polymer beads (polystyrene/divinylbenzene). Layer thickness and uniformity are not critical, but desire thin (< few microns)…

Plastic film near-infrared signatures

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Richard Ozanich
Project type
Exploratory Research
Measure an assortment of plastic film samples having different polymer thin-layer coatings to determine if their near-infrared spectrum can be used to identify the particular samples. Objectives are…
