ATS has provided chemical analysis of metals and alloys for over 55 years. Supporting industries around the world, we work with clients to ensure their products and processes comply with federal, state, and international standards and regulations.
Chemical analysis reveals the composition of a sample, presenting our chemists with a thorough understanding of the chemical make up and properties of a substance. The chemical properties of a metal or alloy can greatly affect the performance of a product and its reaction to its environment. Unexpected contaminants and inclusions can lead to catastrophic failure, poor quality products, and waste.
Chemical Analysis of Metals and Alloys Applications
Our services range from simple alloy identification to the more complex procedures accomplished by technically advanced equipment, including Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES), Wavelength Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (WDXRF), and Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP).
