Elemental analysis of fuels, oils and petrochemicals using X-ray fluorescence with a single mineral oil calibration
Accurate analysis of sulphur and other elements in different fuel/blends typically requires many different conventional calibrations. Similarly, analysis of wear metals in used lubricants can be difficult as calibration standards are often not readily available.
With the Oil-Trace solution, a single set of matrix calibration standards provides the flexibility to handle many different matrices, e.g. additives in lubes, sulphur in fuel/biofuels, wear metals in used lubricants, etc. This saves time for setting up and maintaining calibrations, and equals savings on expensive reference materials.
The ready-to-use Oil-Trace solution, proven on market-leading Axios WDXRF spectrometers, is now also available on PANalytical benchtop Epsilon 3X EDXRF spectrometers.
