General spectroscopy and solid-state characterisation

Mae'r cynnwys hwn ar gael yn Saesneg yn unig.

Our spectroscopic techniques and expert knowledge enables high quality chemical analysis.

We are also excellently equipped to characterise heterogeneous catalysts and other solid materials through the extensive analytic facilities of the Cardiff Catalysis Institute
