Surface Analysis

Surface analysis is a physical experiment that analyzes the composition, structure, and energy state of a thin layer with only a few atomic layers on the solid surface or interface. It is also a technology that uses analytical means to reveal the surface morphology, composition, structure or state of materials and their products. T,C&A Lab, as an independent third-party testing organization, can use a variety of analytical techniques to solve customer problems related to surface science, surface engineering, coating and film, pollution and corrosion. Our experts have accumulated rich experience in surface analysis of various materials, including rubber, plastic, textile, metal, ceramic, glass, coating, wood, building material, automotive component, electronic, paper and cardboard, cosmetic, packaging, medical device and other sample types. Welcome to contact our experts for consultation.
