Highly trained and experienced professional analytical chemists
staff our ISO 9000 certified, state-of-the-art, analytical
laboratory. We utilize measurement systems including inductively
coupled plasma (ICP) -atomic emission, ICP-mass, fusion disc
X-ray fluorescence, atomic absorption spectrometers and UV-visible
spectrometers.
Our chemists perform traditional, bench-scale, wet chemical
analysis for precise Lanthanide results as well as particle
size and surface area analyses for products requiring specific
sizing specifications. Critical customer specifications
for individual Lanthanides and other elemental constituents
are measured, tracked and reported for in-process and final
products ready for shipment. The lab instrumentation is
able to detect individual Lanthanide elements down to part
per million levels in a precise, accurate and reliable manner.
Our Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) provides
the needed storage capabilities necessary for the thousands
of analyses performed monthly. LIMS instantaneous data retrieval
feature supports our material tracing ability all the way
from the mined ore to the final, packaged product.
