QA/QC Control of Raw Materials & Products

Whether it's an automobile, home appliance, or electronic device, consumers demand high-quality products at reasonable prices. For manufacturers, a critical task is to meet these quality expectations and avoid product recalls to protect brand reputation. Polymer Testing regimens make certain that product characteristics meet customer specifications, and accurate verification of identity and composition of polymers ensures the highest quality and performance of finished goods.

Our comprehensive portfolio of products includes a wide array of polymer testing solutions such as Infrared spectroscopy, thermal analysis, chromatography or atomic spectroscopy - designed to simplify and accelerate polymer characterization and plastic identification for increasing productivity.

With workflow driven software and automation, you can confidently and reliably test your materials to purity, composition, and performance standards, to achieve quality control over the raw materials and products you depend on.

Identification and characterization of raw material and finished products is an essential part of any production process. Typical applications in polymer characterization are:

  • Identification
  • Mechanical & thermal characteristics (e.g. expansion/contraction, melting point, crystallinity, glass transition)
  • Oxidative stability tests - OIT
  • Residual monomers/oligomers
  • Additive determination
  • Color measurements

Residual Monomer Content

Content Polymer production and quality control require a variety of analytical testing methods. One common test is the analysis of residual monomers in the final polymer material. This analysis is well suited for GC with headspace because it requires no sample preparation.
