Laboratory analysis of organic deposits
Industrialists of any sector, you wish to analyze an organic deposit on the surface of your products or materials?
What is an organic deposit?
First of all, an organic deposit is a particle formed on the surface of a material as a result of interactions and attacks from an environment.
The exact origin of an organic deposit is not always easy to identify. Indeed, the organic deposit can be present from the reception of the raw material, appear during the production process or be declared in its final environment.
Why analyze organic deposits on the surface of your materials?
The appearance of an organic deposit on a material can lead to a failure. Indeed, the performance of a material is directly linked to its surface properties. Thus, the formation of a deposit or the presence of a pollution on a material can characterize problems of adhesion, roughness, wear…
In addition, organic deposits can also form in formulations (pharmaceutical, cosmetic chemicals …). In this case, the organic deposits can cause a non-conformity of production delaying the marketing of your products.
Thus, the support of a laboratory specialized in the analysis of organic deposits can be a considerable asset in the optimization of your products and materials.
FILAB offers you expertise and analysis techniques for organic deposits
For more than 30 years, the FILAB laboratory has had the experience and the specific analytical equipment to meet the needs of analysis and characterization of organic deposits.
These are performed by Scanning Electron Microscopy coupled to a microprobe (SEM-EDX) to check the nature and chemical composition of the deposit. The organic deposit is then analyzed by chromatography (GC-MS, LC-MS) or spectroscopy (FTIR, µ-IRTF) to break down the molecules of the deposit for easier analysis.
Thanks to a tailor-made support, the FILAB laboratory analyzes your problems and guides you until the interpretation of the results through the following expertise services:
- Characterize an organic deposit
- Validate the conformity of a surface
Audit or training in organic deposit characterization methods
- Analyze the thickness of a layer or the quantity of an organic deposit
