DustLab – analysis of explosion characteristics

Knowledge of materials and their proper handling in potentially explosive atmospheres is a mandatory element. DustLab provides an opportunity for a fact-based approach to highly flammable and explosive substances and their mixtures used in different technologies and for the implementation of user specification, design, and operation, as well as further analyses.
