The “Molecules and Materials at Interfaces” laboratory – 2MILab, is an open facility based at the School of Engineering in Chemistry, Biotechnology and Health at KTH, in the heart of Stockholm. Our associated staff are often internationally recognized authorities in their area of expertise within the broad field of surface, colloid and corrosion science. This fact is witnessed by the large number of their peer-reviewed publications. Research areas are diverse and exploit a wide range of measurements, modelling and theoretical methods providing state-of-the-art insights into the problem at hand. The laboratory collects the diverse instrumentation used in those studies. We have extensive experience of collaborations with companies, both large and small, and our staff are well versed in providing crucial contributions to industrial advances and solutions.
For students and research staff, a yearly membership fee provides access to all available instruments and techniques at 2MILab. Alternatively, internal users can pay an hourly fee that covers the running cost of the instrument. More information about access fees here!
Lab users can book instrument time with our intuitive cloud-based LIMS system.
If you don’t feel comfortable running the instrument yourself, we can provide assistance, or even run the measurements for you. Users from industry are very welcome and for an additional fee we contribute with data interpretation.
Surfaces and interfaces are ubiquitous, and you can find a few examples of economically vital application examples below. Welcome!
