Rheology deals with the analysis of the deformation of solid or fluid structures, subject to creep. Its importance concerns many industrial processes, such as pharmaceuticals, food, plastics, rubbers, ceramics. Indeed, the materials are not completely fluid, but show a nonlinear behaviour that, if not fully analysed, can lead to unexpected behaviour during manufacturing cycle and/or [...]

The laboratory carries out the determination of the optical parameters more interesting in the field of ceramic materials and, in wider terms, of building construction. It is possible to carry out the following tests: reflectance measurements for determining the Solar Reflectance Index (SRI), according to the Standard ASTM E 1980-11, for LEED Certification of buildings [...]

Tiles The laboratory deals with chemical-physical-mechanical characterisation of ceramic tiles according to the main national and international standards (UNI, EN, ISO, ASTM, BS, AS, UNE, SASO, DIN, CSTB) and also according to internal methods developed by Centro Ceramico (CC). CC is accredited to carry out the tests EN ISO 10545 according to the Standards EN [...]

The laboratory deals with chemical-physical-mechanical characterisations of refractory materials, according to the main national and international standards (UNI, EN, ISO, ASTM), as well as according to internal methods developed by Centro Ceramico. It is possible to carry out chemical, mineralogical, microstructural, physical and mechanical analyses to investigate specific issues arisen on the materials during use. [...]

The laboratory deals with chemical-physical-mechanical characterisations of other ceramic products (sanitaryware, tableware, heavy-clay), according to the main national and international standards (UNI, EN, ISO, ASTM), as well as according to internal methods developed by Centro Ceramico (CC). Tableware The laboratory is able to carry out tests of mechanical dishwashing resistance, resistance to microwave heating, in [...]

Environment Laboratory carries out analyses on samples collected by the staff of mobile laboratory, or delivered directly by Customer. The main types of tests are: determination of dust, metals and gases (nitrogen and sulphur fluorides/oxides etc.) at the emissions into the atmosphere determination of dust, lead and other metals, respirable crystalline silica in work environment [...]
