Wet Chemical Analysis

Classic Wet Chemistry

Wet chemistry, also called wet chemical analysis, generally refers to chemistry performed on samples in the liquid phase. Since wet chemical analysis relies on liquid samples, this type of element analysis can work with samples too small for other instrumental methods.

Both classical and instrumental wet chemical analysis can provide qualitative and quantitative data about the elemental makeup of a test sample. Laboratory Testing Inc. has the expertise and fully-equipped laboratories to provide wet chemical analysis on metal and alloy samples.

Wet Chemical Analysis Services at LTI

Our classical wet chemistry lab performs traditional techniques such as colorimetry, gravimetry, and titrimetry. Classical wet chemical analysis is the conventional method of element analysis using laboratory beakers and flasks to manipulate a sample to identify a single element.

The instrument laboratory also provides wet analyses, including ICP chemistry (ICP atomic emission spectroscopy and ICP mass spectrometry analysis) and inert gas fusion for hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen analysis. Instrumental wet chemistry utilizes instrumentation to analyze a sample for a full spectrum of elements. Instrumented methods are automated and computerized for streamlined analysis and data storage.

LTI can test for the following chemical elements:

Manganese
Chromium
Phosphorous
Nickel
Silicon
CR +6
