Elemental Analysis
Handheld XRF Devices
Handheld XRF devices can non-destructively quantify or qualify almost any element, from fluorine to uranium, depending on the instrument configuration. This technology is non-destructive and highly efficient thanks to the point-and-shoot principle. The devices are used in geology, food technology, archaeology, environmental technology, construction, and the polymer industry.
Micro-XRF Spectrometers
Micro XRF is a powerful analytical technique used to study the elemental composition of materials at a microscopic level. This technique enables researchers to obtain detailed spatial information about the distribution of elements in a sample, for example, through mapping, with samples up to 20 cm x 15 cm and a resolution of < 20 µm.
TXRF Spectrometers
Total Reflection XRF (TXRF), unlike ICP and AAS, does not require sample destruction, eliminating the need for chemicals. Additionally, carrier gases such as argon are unnecessary. TXRF is an advanced analytical technique used for elemental analysis of various materials. It is particularly useful for detecting and quantifying trace elements in different samples, ranging from (waste) water and other liquids to powders and solid substances.
