Optical, UV-Vis & Laser Marking Evaluation

Optical absorption, reflectance, transmission, color, black coatings, laser marking response, and coating quality screening. Elect Nano uses this capability as part of application-driven materials programs where test setup, sample format, and data interpretation need to match the end-use requirement.

Capabilities

  • UV-Vis spectroscopy
  • Optical transmission and absorbance testing
  • Comparative optical screening
  • Optical density, pigment loading, coating uniformity, absorbance trend, and blackness screening
