Analyses of textiles and plastic etc.

 
   
 
 T-1 Metals in textiles
As (0.02) Cd (0.01) Co (0.01) Cr (0.03) Cu (0.01)
Hg (0.02) Ni (0.07) Pb (0.01) Zn (0.09)
Figures in brackets denote limits of quantification in mg/kg. Minimum sample amount: 2 g. Method: ICP-AES/ICP-MS.
 

Digestion: The sample is ground and dissolved in a mixture of nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide in closed teflon vessels in a microwave oven.

May be supplemented with determination of Cr(VI).

 
 

I-1c Metals in various materials

As (3) Ba (0.4) Be (0.01) Cd (0.1) Co (0.1)
Cr (0.2) Cu (0.1) Fe (10) Li (0.1) Mn (0.5)
Mo (0.4) Ni (0.2) P (5) Pb (1) Sr (0.1)
V (0.1) Zn (1) Hg (1)    
Figures in brackets denote limits of quantification in mg/kg. Minimum sample amount: 1 g dry weight.

Single elements may also be determined.

  Package I-1c is recommended for analysis of, e.g., metal parts, building material etc. Sample preparation method and digestion method should be adapted to the sample type and to the range of elements to be analyzed.
 
 

I-2 Metals in various materials

As (0.1) Cd (0.01) Co (0.03) Cr (0.1) Cu (0.3)
Hg (0.04) Ni (0.08) Pb (0.1) V (0.2) Zn (1)

Figures in brackets denote limits of quantification in mg/kg dry weight for soil samples (may vary depending on sample type). Please contact the laboratory for information about sample preparation.

Single elements may also be determined.

  I-2 may be supplemented with additional elements.

Package I-2 is recommended for analysis of, e.g., metal parts, building material etc. Sample preparation method and digestion method should be adapted to the sample type and to the range of elements to be analyzed.
 
 
 I-4a Metals in plastics (accredited)
As (0.4) Cd (0.02) Co (0.02) Cr (0.1) Cu (0.5)
Hg (0.05) Mn (0.2) Ni (0.2) Pb (0.2) Zn (1)
Figures in brackets denote limits of quantification in mg/kg. Minimum sample amount: min 5 g.
  I-4a may be supplemented with additional elements. Elements within the accreditation: Ca (200), Sb (0.1), Sn (0.1).
