There is the possibility to perform, upon request, custom research or studies in the presence of technologists or representatives of the customer. The aim of the study with an extended range of measurement is to determine the accelerating factors of combustion process and to determine the possibility of eliminating these factors. Such studies are particularly useful in the development of new materials/products. Long-term cooperation with technologists proved the usefulness of such studies.
