The need for chemical analysis can arise from a wide variety of situations. At LPD Laboratory Services our team of dedicated specialist technical staff have access to many chemical and materials analysis techniques and can advise you on how best to address your requirements in a cost effective and reliable way.

Chemical analysis covers a range of techniques and an even broader range of sample types and sources. Analysis may involve using a particular technique or a combination of methods and samples can be solids, liquids or gases Our highly experienced staff are skilled in using the wide array of tools and techniques to produce results targeted to the customers requirements. This can range from a simple request to quantify the concentration of an element or chemical through to solving a specific problem or supporting a development project..

Our Industrial scientist and engineering backgrounds mean that practical context orientated interpretation of the any results and conclusions is included as a matter of course, giving customers the information they need act with confidence.

A range of the chemical analytical techniques available at LPD Lab Services can be found here including FTIR, GC, HPLC, XRF, UV/Vis, TGA,  Karl Fischer and AAS.

A small example of work we can do is:

• Product / process control and validation
• Identification and elimination of contaminants
• Chemical Product Deformulation and Reformulation
• Analysis of adhesives, coatings, adhesion promoters and coupling agents
• Analysis of binders and fillers
• Determination of plastic / polymer types and degradation temperatures with TGA 
• Identification of unknown chemicals and detergents
• Trace metal analysis
• Aspects of RoHS testing

Some specific associated skills available at LPD Lab Services include:

		Chemical Product Deformulation and Reformulation Deformulation of chemical products to determine their composition, how they are manufactured and substitute or improve recipes to stimulate or improve the products performance.

		Chemical Analysis Techniques gives a large range of chemical analysis techniques for quantitative and trace analysis of solids, liquids and gases for organics and inorganics. Other facilities available in the laboratory are detailed.

		Physical, Structural and Microstructural Analysis Analysis of physical properties and inspection of structure and microstructure of chemicals, materials and assembled products to better understand the make up of product or component for reverse engineering, failure investigations or root cause problem solving.

		Materials Analysis and Failure Investigation Product and component materials analysis achieved by combining chemical, materials science, failure analysis, reverse engineering and industrial process experience coupled with materials analysis techniques.
