Expertise in Chemicals

Controlled the release via encapsulation is a technique that enables precise control over when, where, and how much of an active substance is released within applications such as wound care, cosmetics, and agriculture. Through advanced formulation and physical modeling/simulation (in silico), we ca…

RISE offers expertise in REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals), the EU chemicals legislation. We support companies in meeting their regulatory obligations and ensuring that products placed on the market are safe. We combine scientific knowledge with adva…

The EU is planning extensive restrictions on PFAS due to their associated health risks, which will affect the use of fluorinated polymers in industries such as electronics, and automotive. To support your transition away from PFAS, we offer tailored consulting. By choosing PFAS-free alternatives, c…

We offer accredited laboratory analyses that ensure quality, safety and regulatory compliance in several industries – from energy, environment and construction to consumer products. With advanced equipment and broad expertise, we help companies meet international standards and environmental require…

LCA is a method of high complexity, where different methodological choices may lead to conflicting results. That is why LCA results intended for communication to external stakeholders need a high level of credibility. An LCA critical review is a standard procedure for increasing the credibility of …

Do you want to know what is on your surface or more about your new material? With our unique expertise in imaging mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS), we can provide molecular information about material surfaces and image the spatial distribution of different components on a surface. 

The properties of lignin samples are to a great extent influenced by their chemical and molecular structure. RISE has long experience and advanced equipment for characterization of lignin on different structural levels. 

RISE offers various tests for analysis of PFAS in materials, goods, articles, products, water, soil and food. There is no method that measures all PFAS, but depending on what you want to know, we will choose the appropriate method(s). Contact us and we will help you.

What is normally called dilute non-condensable gases, DNCG contains a mixture of different sulfur-containing substances; hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan, DMS and DMDS.

In the cellulose industry, it is crucial that process chemicals are carefully analysed, controlled and classified in order to be able to take appropriate measures in case of post-processing of materials.

Problem solving in processes and products involves analysing organic and inorganic compounds, surfaces, elements. FT-IR, light microscopy and SEM / EDX are most common but also GC-MS, separation techniques are also used to solve the problems that processes and products encounter.

Thermosets are commonly used in the work environment and are used e.g. in adhesives and varnishes. In addition, many of the substances used are harmful to health. We offer help with finding replacements and also offer thermosetting plastic training according to the Swedish Work Environment Authorit…

UVF (Ultraviolet Fluorescence Analysis) is a non-contact method for the detection of biological materials, such as oil. RISE develops UVF systems that are adapted to challenging applications.

LIBS (Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy) is a fast and non-contact method for chemical analysis. RISE develops LIBS systems that are adapted to demanding applications.

Life science and environmental sectors, forest industry and bioeconomy – wherever there is a need for chemical analysis. We develop and validate analytical methods, carry out assessments and provide quality control.

Hydrothermal carbonation (HTC) is an energy efficient process, where for example wet sewage sludge can be upgraded to hydrochar and separated from the water after the process. RISE has expertise and equipment around this both in Stockholm (lab scale) and Örnsköldsvik (pilot scale at RISE Processum)…
