Pressed Pellet Analysis

Trace elements and sulfidic ores require sample preparation using the pressed pellet technique, prior to X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis. SGS experts can help you determine the best possible sample preparation option for your samples before starting an analytical program. Following sample preparation, SGS provides expert XRF analysis using the pressed pellet technique.

The advantages of using XRF analysis are its accuracy, precision, rapid analytical time, and its multi-element nature. Throughout our global laboratory network, SGS has the extensive expertise and technology needed to provide you with independent XRF results.
