Characterization of materials and chemical analysis in the laboratory

You are a manufacturer facing industrial problems requiring the support of a laboratory to help you make the right decisions. The FILAB laboratory can help you carry out your chemical analysis and characterization of materials.

What is an industrial analysis?

Chemical analysis of materials and samples is a key discipline for many industries. It provides an in-depth understanding of materials and substances and their properties in order to design high-performance products tailored to the specific needs of each sector.

The FILAB laboratory that carries out these industrial analyses has state-of-the-art equipment to provide accurate and comprehensive analysis of samples.

Why carry out an industrial analysis in a laboratory?

Industrial analysis (chemical analysis and characterization of materials) in the laboratory is a crucial process for industries seeking to ensure the quality of chemical products and raw materials used in their business. The results of these industrial and chemical analyses are used to determine the composition of the various compounds and their purity, in order to guarantee their compliance with industry standards.

By using this type of analysis, industries can make more informed decisions about which raw materials to use, which manufacturing processes to follow, and ensure that their end products meet the highest quality standards.

Industrial quality control

Root cause determination of industrial contaminations

Non-conformity of an industrial batch

Checking the performance of industrial processes and industrial fluids

Procedural improvements

Properties measured in industrial analysis

Industrial chemical analysis is a key process for ensuring the reliability and safety of chemical products manufactured on a large scale.

The properties measured include properties such as chemical composition, impurities and concentration of major components.

By identifying the properties of tested materials and samples, companies can optimise production, improve product quality and minimise health and environmental risks.

FILAB supports you in the industrial analysis of your products and raw materials

The FILAB laboratory team is made up of doctors and engineers specialising in Chemistry and Materials, with varied industrial experience.

In addition to its industrial analysis services, some of which are carried out under COFRAC ISO 17025 accreditation, the FILAB laboratory helps manufacturers with various issues:

Industrial chemical analysis

Compliance checks and quality control analysis

Prototype validation

Industrial failure analysis : chemical analysis of deposits on a production line, contaminant analysis

Assistance in improving industrial procedures

Applications of industrial analysis

Industrial analysis concerns many industrial sectors:

The different types of industrial analysis carried out in the laboratory

In the laboratory, there are several types of industrial analysis that can be carried out on raw materials, intermediate products and finished products to ensure that they comply with quality and safety standards. These include physico-chemical analysis, failure analysis and characterization of materials. These different analysis methods measure parameters such as chemical composition, particle size and purity. Each method has its own advantages and limitations, and should be chosen according to the specific needs of the industrial analysis.

What are the objectives of industrial analysis?

The chemical industry is a constantly evolving field, requiring strict production and quality standards. The aim of industrial analysis is to provide accurate data to help develop, control and improve industrial chemical processes. It also helps to ensure worker safety and prevent environmental risks. The main objectives of industrial analysis are to determine the physical and chemical properties of materials, to quantify compounds and contaminants, and to optimise production processes. The results of industrial chemical analysis can be used to improve end products and reduce production costs, while ensuring compliance with standards and regulations.

How can chemical analysis be used to optimise processes and make them more reliable?

Industrial analysis in chemistry is a key element in ensuring the reliability and efficiency of processes in various industries. It is used to detect impurities and contaminants in raw materials, finished products and even waste. By using advanced analysis techniques such as mass spectrometry and chromatography, companies can optimise their production by precisely controlling purity levels and avoiding costly rework. Ultimately, industrial analysis helps companies to produce safer, more reliable and higher quality products, while minimising the risk of process failure.

What methods are commonly used for chemical analysis?

Industrial analysis is common practice in many industrial sectors such as pharmaceuticals, food production and chemical manufacturing. The methods used in analysis can vary depending on the objective and the products being analysed, but certain techniques are commonly used. Spectroscopy, for example, is a popular method that uses light to analyse the chemical composition of samples. Chromatography analysis is another commonly used method that separates the components of a mixture according to their mass and charge. Ultimately, the use of different industrial chemical analysis methods allows industry professionals to maintain the quality and safety of their products.
