A „Variable Pressure Cryo Scanning Electron Microscope” will be allocated to the University of Stuttgart for the analysis of bio-based material. This allocation is jointly funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) – Operational Program Baden-Württemberg 2014 to 2020 “Innovation and Energy Transition” as well as the Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts Baden-Württemberg.
The large device to be acquired will help in quickly and robustly testing the material of bio-based nanocomposites and the functional characterization of interfaces between solid and soft material.
