SCOPE OF SERVICES
The Microanalysis lab provides two types of services: elemental
analysis and physical analysis. NOTE: For details on all procedures please see sections on each instrument. The elements selected by
the user determine which instruments the lab uses.
ELEMENTAL ANALYSIS
There are three instruments the lab uses for elemental analysis:
-
CHN (for measuring
carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen in compounds);
-
ICP (for measuring
all metallic elements);
-
TITRATION (for measuring
halides and sulfur).
PHYSICAL ANALYSIS
There are two instruments the lab uses for physical analysis:
-
TGA (for determination of decomposition
weight loss, combustion analysis, temperature stability, moisture content,
reaction mechanism);
-
DSC (for determination of melting
point, freezing point, glass transition, physical transitions, heat capacity,
reaction mechanism, kinetics, purity, product identification)
COST
Sample Submission Info
The lab strives to have the lowest cost for analysis each year. Rates
will vary somewhat depending upon operating expense. Please call
if you need accurate cost estimation. The cost for analysis is broken into
four categories - University of Illinois SCS, University of Illinois Non-SCS,
Other academic institutions, and Industry.
