Description

Cast Iron Reference

In general, emission spectrometers and X-ray fluorescence analysis devices are widely used in plants producing cast iron and various types of alloys. The users of these devices need calibration specimens to confirm the stability of the devices.

JFE-TEC has established methods to manufacture calibration specimens for use for such instrumental analysis through experiments and research over many years. Our original calibration specimens feature extremely low segregation within specimens and fine homogeneity of metallic structure.

For Gas Component Analysis

JFE-TEC sells specimens for use for analysis of gas components (C, S, O, N, and H) in steel.

Specimens for use for O, N, and H analysis are produced in pin or ball shape with a weight of 0.5 g or 1.0 g, and those for C and S analysis are processed into fine grains. These specimens completely eliminate the need for troublesome pretreatment such as cutting, polishing, and washing. This reduces variation in analytical results due to personal differences in the way pretreatment is performed and enables quick, accurate confirmation of the performance of analysis equipment.
