Transformation of low-value materials, such as asphaltene, into high-end products such as composites with a specific focus on carbon fiber development. An example of such is the fabrication of supercapacitors composed of nanofibre mats.
In addition to extrusion and injection molding, we thermostabilize and carbonize nanofibre mats as a part of the transformation process. These processes are instrumental in the preparation of tensile test bars composed of carbon fibres.
Aside from preparation techniques, we also use other methodologies/techniques such as SEM, EDX, and Optical Microscopies for characterisation purposes.
