GTT also sees itself as a link between industry and the scientific community, especially with respect to making the needs of industry for reliable experimental data match with the capabilities of scientific institutions to execute high accuracy experiments and theoretical simulation. The institute of Materials Chemistry at the RWTH Aachen and GTT-Technologies collaborate to offer a wide range of thermochemical services that support a growing interest in the application of thermochemistry to solving problems arising in the production and application of inorganic and organic materials.
We have longstanding relationships with several institutes of Rheinisch Westfälische Technische Hochschule, Aachen, Germany. The most prominent among these are to:
- Lehrstuhl für Werkstoffchemie (Materials chemistry)
Professor Jochen M. Schneider, Ph. D.
Mass Spectrometry, Surface Technology (chemical vapour deposition, physical vapour deposition, plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition), Thin Film Physics, Thin Film Analytics, Plasma Melting Facility - Institut für Gesteinshüttenkunde
Professor Dr. Rainer Telle and Professor Dr. Reinhard Conradt
High Temperature Calorimetry, Differential Thermal Analysis - Institut für Metallurgische Prozesstechnische und Metallrecycling
Professor Dr.-Ing. Bernd Friedrich
High Temperature Melting Facilities - Institut für Metallkunde und Metallphysik
Professor Dr. Günter Gottstein
Simulation of Diffusion Controlled Metal Processes using ChemApp Based Own Simulators - Institut für Verfahrenstechnik
Professor Dr.-Ing. Michael Modigell
