			Capabilities Destructive analysis for total carbon/sulfur, and nitrogen/oxygen, of inorganic solid or powdered materials, including metals, alloys, carbides, nitrides, and oxides Accuracy and precision better than 1% relative Carbon detection range <1 ppm to 100 %, Sulfur range <1 ppm to 35% on a 1 gram sample Nitrogen detection range 0.1 ppm to 50 %, Oxygen range 0.1 ppm to 10% on a 1 gram sample Sample Requirements 1-2 grams required for each analyzer Solid materials should be cut to about 1/16 inch thickness on a water-cooled cutoff machine Samples will be surface abraded, cleaned, and degreased by lab prior to analysis   Above: Leco Model CS-444LS Carbon/Sulfur Analyzer     Above: Leco TC-436 Nitrogen-Oxygen Analyzer   + Return to the Analytical Chemistry page...
