Laboratory analysis of mineral deposits

Your need: you want to analyze a mineral deposit on your material

A mineral deposit of unknown composition may appear on the surface of a material following contamination or physicochemical changes.

Indeed, the appearance of a deposit on a material or in a formulation can lead to visual or functional production non-conformity (adhesion, roughness, wear).

Consequently, verifying the absence of mineral deposits is an essential step in a production or cleaning process. Characterizing the chemical composition of a mineral deposit in a specialized laboratory such as FILAB will therefore help you define the actions required to eliminate it.

Our solutions to support you in mineral deposit analysis

Le laboratoire FILAB met à disposition son expertise et son parc analytique de pointe pour vous aider à analyser vos résidus et dépôts. 

  • La Microscopie Electronique à Balayage couplée à une microsonde (MEB-EDX) pour identifier la composition chimique et la nature du dépôt.
  • La Diffraction de Rayons X (DRX) pour identifier et quantifier les phases cristallines présentes dans le dépôt afin d’en connaitre la composition.
  • La spectrométrie d’émission optique par plasma (ICP-AES ou ICP-MS) pour identifier et quantifier ses éléments chimiques.
