- Additional information
- This work was sponsored by an international personal protection company (www.charlesowen.com) and co-authored by their late MD. It enables industry to perform on-site material characterisation, creating opportunities to adopt new and emerging materials and advanced manufacturing processes. This has potential to add significant value to new and existing products, motivating Champion Manufacturing to sponsor a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (£278k, Grant No. 12374), eKTP (£22k) and a PhD studentship (£56k inward investment), plus an additional £27k Charles Owen investment. It also provided supporting evidence to leverage £557k (proportion = £95k) EPSRC Research Infrastructure Funding.
