Chemistry

Antellis controls heavy metals in raw materials, solvents, finish or semi-finish products according to your specifications. Furthermore, our great reactivity allows us to help  industrials in investigating incidents during industrial processes (presence of mineral impurities or particles) by quickly realising:

• Semi-quantitative screenings of periodic classification of elements (screening of 50 elements).
  
• Characterisation and quantitation of mineral impurities.
• Characterisation and quantitation of catalysts.
• Physical and chemical characterisation of particles (SEM-EDX).
• Developement and validations of methods according to ISO guidelines.
  

Some examples of performed analyses :

• Quantitation of Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Ba, Fe, Mg,… in organic solvents.
  
• Quantitation of Al, Na, Mg, Pb in ionic solvents.
• Quantitation of As, Cd, Pb, Hg in polymers.
• Quantitation of As, Cd, Pb, Hg, Se, Zn, Mn,… in minerals (ZnO, MnO2, CuSO4, TiO2,…).
• Characterisation of corrosion problems (foreign particles, high concentration of Fe, Ni, Cr, Mo, Mn,…) in raw materials by ICP-MS and/or SEM-EDX.
