If you have an analytical problem contact our Laboratory Business Manager or Sales Administrator at the Rotherham Laboratory who will be pleased to discuss it with you. With two powerful XRF spectrometers and many years experience in borate bead fusion techniques, we analyse not only refractories, minerals, chemicals, slags, rare earth oxides and ceramics, but also irons, steels, ferroalloys and a wide range of alloys based on nickel, cobalt, tungsten, tantalum and most other metals. We offer an excellent semi-quantitative package, UniQuant , which covers all the elements from fluorine to uranium measurable by XRF, in one analysis. Large, small and even tiny samples will give useful results. Combine UniQuant with XRD for a cost-effective tool for investigating deposits, corrosion, contamination and other unknowns.
Specialist programs are available for solid metal discs and contaminated land samples.
New methods can be developed as per customer requirements. Leco analysers gaseous elements can be analysed to trace levels in a range of materials. The equipment allows range extension for C and N in carbides and nitrides. We have developed techniques for the analysis of boron by neutron transmission where dissolution methods have proven difficult. The laboratory retains the capability to carry out several classical wet methods of analysis.
