Chemical Testing & Analysis Know What You’ve Got: Inside and Out

Chemical testing and analysis determines the composition or elemental make-up of materials, and is performed at LTI by instrumental methods and classical wet chemistry. Our chemists analyze metals, powdered metals, ores, ferroalloys, composites, ceramics, aerospace materials, nuclear materials and more. Read "Providing Samples for Analytical Testing"

Samples are analyzed using the following methods:

Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES)
Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AA)
Carbon/Sulfur/Nitrogen/Oxygen/Hydrogen Determination
Inductively-Coupled Plasma Analysis (ICP)
Positive Material Identification (PMI)
Accelerated Intergranular Corrosion (ASTM Specifications)
Salt Spray (Salt Fog {ASTM B-117})
Sieve Analysis
Soxhlet Extraction
Plating Identification
Density, Porosity & Oil Content
Classical Wet Chemistry
Passivation Testing (ASTM specifications)
Humidity Testing
RoHS Compliance Testing (Wet analysis & spectroscopy)

RoHS Directive

The Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive or RoHS Directive, was drawn up in the European Union to protect human health and the environment from hazardous substances. The directive applies to most manufacturers, sellers, distributors and recyclers of electrical and electronic components or equipment sold or used in the European Union.

The Directive restricts the use of six hazardous substances in these products - lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls and polybrominated diphenyl ethers. Laboratory Testing can help you assure compliance with quick, reliable, testing of your component materials to verify levels of the restricted substances. All of your answers will be fully documented in a Certified Test Report.
