Inclusion analysis on laboratory materials

You have noticed inclusions in your materials and wish to analyze them?

What is inclusion?

First of all, an inclusion is a unitary body involuntarily included in a solid material such as metals, polymers, plastics or composites.

Also, an inclusion can be of different origins:

  • Metallic
  • Organic
  • Mineral
  • Agglomerate of compounds

Why analyze an inclusion in a material?

Note that there are many reasons to analyze an inclusion. As previously stated, inclusions are elements added to a material unintentionally.

Therefore, inclusions can come from different sources such as the manufacturing process, the raw materials used, etc. and can influence the characteristics of your materials. Indeed, inclusions are contaminations that can, for example, weaken your material or impact its aesthetics.
