Earth Material Characterisation Laboratory (EMCL) |  Main Campus

Ceramic Laboratory

This laboratory is equipped with tools which can get the scientific data from the archaeological samples as many as possible for further interpretation. Our lab have Vikers & Rockwell hardness tester, industrial furnace, clay mixer and viscometer which useful for ceramics reconstruction or experimental archaeology. The lab also equipped with FT-IR microscope, FT-IR spectroscopy, Simultaneous Thermogravimetric Analyzer (STA) and Handheld Raman Spectroscopy. We offer lab services for differential therma analysis, organic and inorganic material characterization, surface hardness testing, liquid viscosity and ceramic experiment.
