Chemical Analysis of Materials
Chemical Analysis of Materials for Identification, Chemical Composition and Safety
Chemical analysis characterizes the chemical components in a material which helps to identify unknown materials or verify that the material meets the required conditions.
Material analysis can also be used to trace harmful chemical substances on components and different products.This provides the support you need to comply with chemical and mechanical safety requirements, helping to protect the end users and the environment from unnecessary risks.
The benefits you get from Chemical Analysis of Materials
Ensures that the materials used comply with requirements
Determines if un-wanted elements are present in different materials or products
Guarantees the concentration of harmful chemicals is below regulated limits
Analyses volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions
Prevents hazardous substances being released into the environment
Avoids premature component failure due to the use of unsuitable materials
About Chemical Analysis of Materials
The chemical composition of materials is determined using spectral analysis under laboratory conditions. In the laboratories DEKRA uses top of the line stationary analysis equipment. For mobile applications in our customers' systems or on large test objects that are difficult to mobilize, DEKRA also has mobile spectral analysis devices.
Using scanning electron microscopy, DEKRA can also detect foreign particles on components as part of damage analyses. In addition, other sophisticated analysis techniques such as PXRD, XRF and special methodologies are available for your needs in analyzing polymers, compounds and metals.
