Additional information
Output from EPSRC EP/C536061 project. The novel sub-ambient nanoindentation test platform has made it possible, for the first time, to study the surface mechanical properties and creep behaviour of polymers at sub-ambient temperatures. This new platform has been commercialized by Micro Materials Ltd (Ben Beak, Head of R&D, e-mail: ben@micromaterials.co.uk) and the methodology has led to a KTN project with Dunlop Aircraft Tyres Ltd for the R&D of new tyres (Steve Barlow, Head of Programme; e-mail: steve.barlow@donlopatl.co.uk).
