Certified reference materials (CRMs) are manufactured as standards that are utilized to ensure the quality and metrological traceability of products. They are used to ensure a high level of quality and control when developing new products and must be produced by companies who have been certified as reference material manufacturers. Throughout this blog post, we will look closer at what certified reference materials are and what forms they are available in.

Certified Reference Materials

When producing new products, it is crucial for manufacturers to have another material to use as a reference. This reference material must have already been validated ...

Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) are controls or standards used in laboratories to validate analytical measurement methods, check product quality, or support equipment calibration. CRMs are an essential part of any analysis, testing or validation, and they are most often required to ensure laboratories meet stringent standards. However, there is another alternative if certified reference materials are not available. In this blog post, we will be looking at whether certified reference materials are a requirement for XRF applications.

What Are Certified Reference Materials?

Certified reference materials are used in laboratories worldwide to ensure...

Exhibiting extreme heat-resistance and chemical inertness, platinum products play a vital role in industrial furnace applications. From our manufacturing facility in Melbourne, Australia, XRF Scientific are able to manufacture platinum products to suit the most demanding applications.

Advantages and applications of platinum

Platinum is a ductile silver-white metal known for its rarity and desirable physicochemical properties. Platinum has an extremely high melting point, which makes platinum products extremely valuable for high-temperature applications. In addition to this, platinum products are highly chemically stable, enabling them to resist corrosion even at high temperatures.¹

The combination of heat and corrosion resistance means that platinum pro...
