ICP Metal Analysis (short for Inductively Coupled Plasma) is a precise method used for identifying and measuring the individual elements that make up a test sample. Because ICP can only be performed on liquid samples, analysis of metals first requires the digestion of the sample material from its solid form.
ATS’ metal testing lab employs various techniques to prepare the samples according to the circumstances of each case. Their expertise and our state-of-the-art equipment enable our lab staff to measure the concentration of both the sample’s most prevalent constituent elements and its most elusive trace elements as well. Whether for quality management purposes or failure analysis, ATS can perform ICP metal analysis to characterize the chemical makeup of a wide variety of metals.
ATS and ICP Metal Analysis
For over 50 years, ATS has provided testing, engineering consulting, and inspection services of the highest caliber to clients from numerous industries. Besides our ISO 9001:2015 registration, we are ISO 17025 (A2LA) accredited to conduct ICP analysis of metals to ASTM standard E1479. Our chemists’ proficiency in this method lets ATS assure quick returns of accurate findings. Let ATS’ talented staff handle your metal analysis needs.
