Industrial analyses
Nemko Norlab conducts a wide range of chemical analyses related to environmental investigations and quality control of raw materials and products. From well-equipped, modern laboratories we deliver inorganic and organic specialist analyses for industrial customers and research organizations.
Nemko Norlab delivers customised outsourced laboratory solutions for a number of industrial companies.
Industrial analyses
Nemko Norlab has provided quality assurance services for raw materials control, processes and finished products for industry and mining since 1989. We sample, prepare, and conduct chemical analyses, from raw material to finished product. We have solid expertise regarding analysis methodologies and problem-solving, often based on cross-disciplinary approaches.
Analyses
We conduct analyses on main and trace elements in metallic and oxidic materials, for example:
- low and high-alloy steel
- copper and nickel alloys
- aluminium and aluminium alloys
- cast iron
- ferrosilicon
- silicon carbide and silica dust
- rocks, ores, and minerals
- mineral fertilizers
- salts
- catalyst materials
- coal and coke
- watercourse lime and agricultural lime
- quartz and bauxite
- miscellaneous slags
Our instrument park
We manage serial analysis such as the processing of smaller sample series and individual samples at our well-equipped wet chemical lab and high-tech instrument lab.
We have wide range of equipment for sample preparation and the instrument park comprise (not extensive):
- X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (XRF)
- X-ray Powder Diffraction Spectroscopy (XRD)
- Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES)
- Cold Vapour Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (CV-AAS)
- Cold Vapour Atomic Fluorescence Spectroscopy (CV-AFS)
- Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES)
- Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (DRC ICP-MS, QQQ ICP-MS and SF ICP-MS)
- Ion Chromatography (IC)
- Combustion analysis: element determination of C, S, O and N
- Thermogravimetry with calorimetry (TGA-DSC)
- Scanning Electron Microscope with element analysis (SEM-EDS)
- Gas Chromatography (GC/FID, GC/MS, HS GC/MS and GC/MS/MS)
