Lucideon has changed the name of its Information Centre to better reflect the all-encompassing know-how and experience that it offers.  Now called the Lucideon Knowledge Centre, it is the place to go for all technical and commercial information about ceramics and a wide range of other materials, including metals, composites and polymers.

Lucideon has added nanoparticle analysis to its suite of analytical capabilities with the purchase of a LitSizer 500, manufactured by Anton Paar.  The LitSizer is capable of measuring particles in the range of 1-1000nm and allows Lucideon to offer analysis and consultancy to manufacturers and development teams working with nanoparticles across a wide range of sectors.

Lucideon is pleased to announce that it has added Gleeble testing to its materials characterization and metallurgy research services. 

Lucideon has published a new white paper: 'Failure Analysis of Plastic Products'.
