Spain – Diffraction apparatus – Suministro, instalación, puesta en marcha de un difractómetro de rayos X.

The Spectroscopy Unit, belonging to the Chemistry Division of the Technology Department, is dedicated to projects aimed at developing and implementing graphene materials in various applications. The subject of the present contract is the supply, installation and commissioning of an X-ray diffractometer in order to equip the X-ray Laboratory belonging to the Spectroscopy Unit, included in the recently created Materials Laboratory (LABMAT) within the framework of the CIEMAT Strategic Plan. This acquisition will contribute to the updating of the instrumentation and capabilities of the Unit, currently with serious limitations due to lack of instrumental renewal and thus address the growing demand for structural analyses of materials of very diverse nature. Therefore, the ultimate goal would be to meet the structural characterization needs raised during the development of CIEMAT's research projects, as well as to solve problems posed by other organizations or companies through the Technology Transfer Office.
