Welcome to the Chair of Material Science
The primary focus of the Chair of Material Science (Lehrstuhl für Werkstoffkunde: LWK ) is on investigating the relationship between production and manufacturing processes, the ensuing microstructure of the components produced, and the technical properties that result from this interaction. Our work here is driven by experimental investigation, and ranges from foundational research in previously unexplored areas to practical industrial applications; our research encompasses almost every type of metallic material.
