Nickel assay by X-ray spectrography
06 April, 2009 | XRF Scientific
A Thulium-based, higher precision X-ray analysis technique is suitable for assaying nickel in ore. Currently, production criteria is controlled using quantitative X-ray analysis with a chemical assay reference method (Wet Chemical DMG), which tests the ultimate purity of the nickel ore or concentrate. The current X-ray technique, however, has proven to have accuracy limitations resulting in the loss of potential revenue that can be realised from production. Moreover, the chemical DMG method is relatively expensive, complex and time consuming with the chemicals being dangerous to operators.

06 April, 2009 | Metrohm Australia & New Zealand
The Anton Paar SAXSess is a small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) instrument that can be used to analyse nanostructures present in all different kinds of samples, from liquids (eg, colloids, protein solutions) to solids (eg, polymer films, nanocomposites). It adds precision to scientific investigation and reliability to industrial analysis.
ICP sample introduction accessory
06 April, 2009 | Glass Expansion Pty Ltd
The Assist is an automated standalone accessory that is synchronised with the spectrometer and autosampler of an ICP-OES or ICP-MS instrument system. It consists of programmable dual syringe drives coordinated with an integrated valve system. The Assist delivers high levels of accuracy, stability and sample throughput by controlling the delivery of both sample and internal standard, eliminating the inaccuracies and pulsations caused by peristaltic pumps.
