BQCIS

Determining Material Composition with Scientific Accuracy

Compositional and purity analysis provides definitive chemical characterization of materials, identifying major and trace constituents with precision. BQCIS applies advanced instrumental techniques to verify material conformity, detect contamination, and ensure compliance with industry specifications.

Our laboratories are equipped with ICP-OES, ICP-MS, XRF, and FTIR spectrometers, enabling multi-elemental analysis across metals, alloys, polymers, ceramics, and liquids. Each result undergoes cross-validation and quality control in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025 and ASTM E1479 standards.

From raw material certification to production batch verification, BQCIS delivers actionable insights that support procurement, manufacturing, and regulatory decision-making worldwide.

Key Activities in Compositional & Purity Analysis

Elemental Quantification (ICP-OES/MS)

Determines concentrations of major and trace elements with ppb-level sensitivity.

X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) Spectrometry

Performs rapid, non-destructive analysis of solid samples for bulk elemental composition.

Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy

Identifies organic compounds and polymer structures through molecular fingerprinting.

Gravimetric & Volumetric Analysis

Used for high-accuracy determination of purity levels in chemical reagents and solutions.

Trace Contaminant Detection

Identifies impurities such as heavy metals, moisture, or residual solvents.

Alloy & Mineral Characterization

Determines alloy grade, mineral type, and chemical uniformity for process validation.

Cross-Laboratory Validation

Ensures data reproducibility through multi-instrument and inter-lab comparisons.

Certified Reporting

Provides ISO/IEC 17025-accredited analytical certificates for regulatory submission.

Unknown Material Identification

Utilizing a combination of analytical techniques to identify the composition of unknown or foreign materials.

Key Benefits of Compositional & Purity Analysis

Material Verification

Accurate Material Verification

Confirms raw material conformity to client or industry specifications before use in production.

Contaminant Detection

Early Contaminant Detection

Identifies trace-level impurities or cross-contamination sources that could impact product safety.

Regulatory Assurance

Regulatory Assurance

Supports documentation for REACH, RoHS, and ISO 9001 compliance audits.

Process Optimization

Process Optimization

Improves process control by monitoring elemental consistency and purity trends over time.

Success Story

Purity Verification for Pharmaceutical-Grade Metals

The Challenge:

A medical device manufacturer required verification of high-purity titanium alloys for surgical implants in compliance with ASTM F136.

Our Solution:

BQCIS performed ICP-MS and XRF compositional analysis to quantify residual elements and confirm alloy uniformity. Each batch was validated under ISO/IEC 17025 protocols.

The Result:

Achieved certification of >99.8% purity with full traceability and zero non-conformities across 24 sample batches.
