The autumn meeting was held on 3rd November 1994 at Raychem Ltd, Swindon. Approximately 40 people were present to hear seven papers illustrating the versatility of the XRD technique and the wide range of materials which can be studied. The delegates were warmly welcomed by Bob Reid who briefly spoke about the company and the markets which Raychem serve. Bruce Fox then illustrated how the x-ray facility at Swindon helps the company to achieve the ever more demanding requirements of the customer. Bruce showed how a combination of computer aided goniometer methods and camera techniques have provided the answers to problems in the field of heat recoverable plastics.
