Ultrasonics:

•  Most chemical engineers are now involved in some phase of polymer technology and hence we can call this age as polymer age. In order to understand the type of interaction existing between polymers acoustical studies have been undertaken.

•  Velocity, Viscometer and refractometric studies on various polymeric solutions Viz., polystyrene, polyethylene glycol and polymethyl methacrylate have carried out by research scholars in the recent years.

 Thin Film Technology:

             Preparation and Characterization of Photovoltaic Materials are carried out.

             Also projects in fields like Crystal Growth and Characterization and Electronics are carried out.

 Electronics:

            The following devices are constructed and their performance is studied.

§         Lock-in-Amplifier

§         Constant Current Source

§         Micro controller based Obstacle detection device

§         Micro controller based   Vibration alarm for deaf
