Cianflone Scientific

Knowing the elemental composition of metals helps manufacturers and consumers make better decisions. By using Cianflone Scientific PortaSpec® WDXRF analyzers metal companies and users can eliminate uncertainty and reduce risk, while enhancing consistency and ensuring quality is maintained at desired levels.

PortaSpec® WDXRF analyzers help reduce waste and improve the consistency of material delivered to customers. PortaSpec® quickly and precisely determines the presence and quantity of elements in samples, which then helps mining and mineral companies determine the appropriate value of the material and the potential uses.

The elements found in the output-stream of refined petroleum affect the performance characteristics of the product and bi-products. PortaSpec® analyzers help producers and users determine and ensure consistent composition and value.

Performance of metal alloys are highly dependent on the elemental composition of the alloy. Precision in determining the composition by using PortaSpec® technology can determine its value and identify contaminants that could have adverse effects. Common applications include the addition of rust preventative elements into steel alloys and strengthening characteristics added to aluminum.

The value of recycled products depends on the elements found in the products that are being recycled. Creating high-quality specimens allows you to identify the presence of distinct elements which have varied applications. The Cianflone Scientific PortaMelt Electric Arc Button Remelt Furnace provides a high-quality specimen for use in spectrographic elemental analysis.

Measuring elements in the sand used to make glass helps manufacturers assure quality and consistency. Contaminants to glass can have negative consequences and knowing the elements by using a PortaSpec® analyzer provides manufacturers opportunities to improve and maintain production process consistency and final product performance.

When natural fibers are combined to create products such as paper, additional performance characteristics can be achieved by using additives that are layered onto the fibers, or in the case of nano applications, into the fiber’s atomic structure. As more additives are added, the ability to detect the presence of elements at an atomic level using PortaSpec® technology is integral to the success and performance of the product.

Materials such as cement, roofing, and curtain walls are vital components within the building industry. Strength and durability are the result of proper elemental composition of all materials that make up each component. Engineers rely on the Cianflone Scientific PortaSpec® WDXRF Analyzers to quickly ensure quality control standards.
