The laboratory at RISE is certified by ISTA and is one of the most well equipped and advanced laboratories in Scandinavia for testing packaging. We carry out tests according to international standards, to ensure the performance of the packaging. Visual inspection is performed to ensure package integrity.

Visual Inspection is performed to provide evidence of package integrity and identify any production sealing problems. Visual Inspection is usually followed by subsequent tests such as for example Seal Strength, Dye Penetration and Bubble Leak test. 

The visual inspection is performed using controlled lighting that illuminates any defects in the seal. The defects identified can then be evaluated for their impact on the integrity of the package.

Testing is carried out in accordance to a common set schedule.

RISE offers a evaluation of a sprinkler system's pipe parts due to corrosion, for example as part of the 25-year check according to Appendix K in SS-EN 12845:2015+A1:2020 and section 20.6 in SBF 120:8. By checking the status of the sprinkler pipes, a lifetime estimate is carried out.

RISE offers inspection of sprinkler pipes according to Appendix K in SS-EN 12845:2015+A1:2020 and section 20.6 in SBF 120:8.

The method is based on a number of pipe parts being provided by the customer. The general procedure for checking the status of the pipe parts is that the pipe parts are cut, cleaned of corrosion products, measured under a microscope and the average corrosion rate calculated. Together with the customer, it can be decided how extensive the analysis should be and whether supplementary investigations such as water analysis should be carried out.

Adhesion testing is essential to ensure electrode coatings remain bonded to the current collector without cracking or delaminating during use. It helps assess electrode durability and reliability, reducing the risk of battery failure. RISE has developed a methodology for battery electrodes based on relevant standards.

Electrode adhesion is a key parameter influencing battery manufacturability, durability and long-term performance. During production and cycling, mechanical stresses may lead to coating cracking, delamination or material loss, which can affect both performance and lifetime.

RISE has developed a methodology for characterizing the adhesion and mechanical integrity of battery electrodes. Our expertise goes beyond simply measuring adhesion-related forces. We help customers understand how electrode architecture, binder systems, current collectors and test conditions influence the measured response and failure behaviour.

By combining standardized testing with advanced analysis, we support development, benchmarking and quality assurance of electrode materials for both conventional and emerging battery chemistries.

RISE offers a method to estimate moment of inertia experimentally using a tri-filar pendulum. The moment of inertia can be measured with respect to selected axes of rotation. In addition, the complete inertia tensor of the body can be estimated through a series of measurements around multiple axes of rotation.

The moment of inertia is a crucial dynamic property of rigid bodies that explains the rotational inertia around given axes. The moment of inertia tensor together with the mass and the centre of mass gives a complete description of the rigid body dynamics. The moment of inertia is commonly estimated through virtual models (e.g. FE-models). However, for complex bodies with different material compositions, the mass distribution can be hard to model. The experimental measurement can then be a valuable complement.

For the tri-filar pendulum method, the moment of inertia is estimated by measuring the period time of the pendulum rotation. In addition, digital image correlation (DIC) is used to track the orientation of the body relative to the axis of rotation.

Depending on the size and shape of the body, RISE also offers to estimate the moment of inertia using experimental modal analysis. If you wish to learn more about both methods, feel free to contact us.

Results from the measurements are documented in a report.

We offer both qualitative and quantitative analysis of microfibres from textile sources, both synthetic (microplastic) and natural.

Microplastics, particularly in the form of fibres, have become a persistent environmental concern. These minute threads, originating from synthetic textiles such as polyester and nylon, are often invisible to the naked eye. They have infiltrated our oceans, soils, and even the air we breathe, posing a significant threat to ecosystems and human health.

To tackle the microplastic issue, RISE has partnered up with various startups, washing machine manufacturers, and governmental bodies. 

We utilize established techniques for measuring fibre release and develop new methodologies tailored to specific purposes.

By assessing your production processes, we can propose measures to minimize environmental effects while preserving product quality.

There are strong economic and environmental reasons to continue to use the existing DH networks in Europe in a reliable and cost-effective way as long as possible. At RISE we have now developed a novel fast, reliable and cost-effective field test method called “PipeOpsy™” – a biopsy for pipes.

District heating (DH) pipes comprise an inner pipe (service pipe), which is normally made of steel, surrounded by polyurethane (PUR) foam insulation and an outer high-density polyethylene (HDPE) casing for protection. The design requires satisfactory adhesion between the components to achieve good long-term mechanical and technical performance. Loss of adhesion, especially between the PUR insulation and the service pipe is the most critical failure mechanism. This ultimately leads to crack growth, resulting in leakage.

To be able to continue using existing DH networks, effective maintenance planning and selective replacement of worn-out parts are required. A prerequisite to accomplish this is reliable information about the functional status and remaining service life of different parts of existing DH networks in operation.

Testing in field using PipeOpsy™ can be easily carried out, using portable tools and without shutting down the operating of DH network.

The method consists of several parts

• Measuring adhesion strength in field
• Measuring thermal conductivity
• Restoring pipeline (Can be done within a couple of hours)
• Chemical analyze foam using FTIR spectroscopy made in laboratory

After the testing and analysis are completed, a report with an assessment of the pipe’s condition is obtained. An addition can be made to the report to estimate the remaining service life of the pipe.
