Description of the Service/Trials offered
The Coatings and Surface Engineering laboratory is a new laboratory that has emerged from selecting some of the techniques that are arousing the most interest among users of equipment focused on improving the durability of materials against corrosion and wear.
The techniques included in this laboratory have been used in more than a dozen research projects and numerous projects of Art. 83 (LOU) and Art. 60 (LOSU), having become the reference laboratory in thermal projection for different companies and Investigation groups.
