About Us

At Your Lab, IIT Ropar, we focus on various aspects of leveraging surface engineering for improved performance in various demanding applications such as in aerospace, biomedical, maritime industries, among others. Prof. Hapreet Singh set up the National Facility for Cold Spray, the first of its kind, which enables us to develop novel, high performance coatings in house. We also have active collaborations with several industries, institutes and research labs, pushing the envelope on the applicability of surface engineering solutions for their requirements. A host of materials processing (such as thermal cycling furnace, 3D printer, ball mill) and materials characterization (such as thermal conductivity measurement, scratch testing, cavitation testing) enables us to delve deep into the science behind materials behaviour and dissect structure - property correlations. In parallel, we are involved in researching solutions to the problem of waste management, recycling and disposal. We like to maintain an environment of curiosity at Your Lab, and are always open to explore innovative ideas with a particular stress on socially conscious problems.
