Description

The equipment is being purchased for the Henry Royce Institute (HRI) at the University of Manchester. The Royce Institute operates as a Hub and Spoke model, with the Hub at the University of Manchester and spokes at the founding partners comprising the Universities of Sheffield, Leeds, Liverpool, Cambridge, Oxford and Imperial College London. It will be a focal point, nationally and internationally for materials science. The equipment fund is financed by the Henry Royce Institute: http://www.royce.ac.uk/ The Henry Royce Institute at The University of Manchester requires a Steam Recycling System for recovering fibres from prepregs and composites. It will be used for cleaning of epoxy-based composites, facilitating recovery of the fibres within the composite part largely intact, while collecting polymer residue for evaluation. The equipment will be located at The University of Manchester.
