Advances in battery technologies are at the forefront of a sustainable global economy, and refinements that further reduce the cost and optimize the performance of batteries are essential. SRC, through our technology partner suppliers, provides laboratories pursuing these refinements with pivotal technologies for battery R&D and QA/QC. Please keep reading to learn more about instrumentation from SRC and our innovative suppliers.
X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy(XPS) from Physical Electronics (PHI) is an important tool for
battery material research and development. XPS can provide insights into battery performance at realistic operating conditions, and help determine the precise location of interfaces between battery components. Electronic band structure of organic and inorganic materials can also be characterized using XPS.To learn more, click here to download the PHI XPS Battery Characterization Application Note.

Integrate, Customize and Make Accessible: 3D Bioprinting is Medicine’s Next Frontier
The growing push for 3-D tissue models is limited by challenges in automated handling, processing, and scalability of the technology to various types of materials and high-throughput applications. To meet these challenges, 4D bioprinting and human-cell derived ECM bioinks can allow researchers to biologically mimic the formation of complex, heterogeneous 3-D structures and to scale the technology to high-throughput and clinically translatable applications. This webinar will discuss the latest megatrends behind bioprinting developments as well as scientific and medical applications developed for tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, preclinical screening and testing, veterinary medicine, as well as personalized drug and food development. Some key topics to be discussed include:
Key advantages of 3D bioprinting over other techniques
Alterations in cellular physiology of cells in 3D vs. 2D
Megatrends behind bioprinting’s importance in biomedicine
Introduction of biomedical applications of bioprinting across various disciplines

How to Harness the Advantages of 3D Printing of Ceramics for Dental Applications
3D printing of ceramics enables a design freedom that is not achievable using tradition methods in the dental industry.
We will discuss how we can achieve with our Ceramics 3D printers tight tolerances while maintaining high strength and hardness that are
comparable to tradition manufacturing technologies.
Case studies will highlight some of the success stories that we have achieved for dental applications.
