Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht has selected the LVEM5 Low voltage TEM to be added to their research instrumentation in the – Institute of Polymer Research division. The Low voltage imaging capabilities of the LVEM5 will give the team much needed contrast when imaging their wide array of soft materials. The LVEM5 is capable of imaging in TEM, SEM and STEM modes. The group hopes to leverage this wide flexibility to help advance their diversified research.
The Institute of Polymer Research is divided in the Centre for Membranes and structured Materials in Geesthacht and the Centre for Biomaterial Development in Teltow. Scientists in Geesthacht develop membranes and techniques for environmental and resource conserving applications in chemical processes as well as polymeric nanocomposites for structural lightweight applications. Meanwhile, there are activities in Teltow which focus on the development of biomaterials in the field of regenerative medicine.
