The central mission of Materials Solutions Network at CHESS (MSN-C) is to provide state-of-the-art tools to characterize and improve advanced manufacturing processes, allowing manufacturers to directly address questions like: why do parts fail?
MSN-C consists of two X-ray experimental stations, one optimized for high performance metals and one for polymer-based materials, such as carbon-fiber composites. Together, these facilities provide critical infrastructure in support of research in materials and processes already in use, and those needed for future applications.
