Chemical Surface Characterization: What’s on My Surface and Should I Care?

Contamination of surfaces can lead to everything from premature mechanical failure of a part, through delamination issues in films and coatings, to total inactivation of chemical and biological sensors. At the same time, not all material deposited on a surface will pose such risk factors. How can we identify what is, and isn’t, ‘real’ contamination?

This webinar will answer that question, and will introduce techniques used in surface chemical analysis to identify real and benign contamination. We will also discuss common problems seen in both data analysis and collection. We welcome viewers from all backgrounds and levels of expertise to attend.
