Chemical Testing

Chemical Testing

Chemical analysis of metals validates that the candidate material is appropriate for the intended end use.

Metal chemical analysis is also used in reverse engineering to determine the alloys used to produce a component and in failure investigations to establish whether the correct alloy was used. 

The most up-to-date test specifications are used to ensure that the results meet international standards.

There are two methods for material validation in chemical testing;

Chemical Testing by Spark Spectrometer

To identify the elements, a German make Optical Emission Spectrometer is used.

Commonly known as Spark Method is a quick way to identify the elements in a material.

NABL Test Certificates for requests requiring only chemical testing are generally delivered within 1 day.

Spectrometer is calibrated for all types of steel grades, Aluminium metals, copper metals and Hastelloy, Monel and all types of Nickel grades Titanium base & Cobalt Base confirmation

Chemical Testing by Wet Method Analysis

We have Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) is made by Shimadzu, a Japanese company is based on the absorption of light by free metallic ions and you can be rest assured of its accuracy of results. The technique is used in analytical chemistry to determine the concentration(in ppm) of a certain element in a sample.

Another set of tests carried out using the Wet Method are:

  1. For Ferrous Metals- Includes wires and chips of metal samples
    • Carbon Analysis
    • Mass of Zinc Coating
    • Chloride Contents
    • Water Analysis
    • Purity of Metals
  2. Non Ferrous Metals- Includes wires and chips of metal samples
    • Copper Base
    • Nickel Base
    • Aluminium Base
  3. For Ferro Alloys- includes Manganese , Chromium, Vanadium, Silicon
    • Graphite Carbon
    • Moisture Content
    • Volatile Matter
    • Fixed Carbon
    • Glass Content
    • Phosphate Coating
    • Cobalt Alloy
  4. Uniformity test/preece test on Zinc Coated articles
  5. Knife Test
  6. Adhesion/Hammer Test
  7. Anodising Coating Thickness
Test Certificates are delivered within 48 hrs*. *Depending on Type of Tests
