The XRF instrument is ideal for the accurate measurement of elements at high levels such as Brasses, Stainless Steels, Nickel and Cobalt alloys. It can also determine Palladium in Titanium alloys; a notoriously difficult element to determine by Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP). XRF is Bodycote’s preferred technique for the analysis of Al, V and Fe in Titanium alloys.

Other analytical techniques available from Bodycote include Glow Discharge Optical Emission Spectrometry (GDOES), Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption, wet chemistry, gases in metals, wear metal in lubricating oils and many more.
