Elemental Microanalysis News

Elemental Microanalysis offers a wide range of tin and silver capsules for use in isotope analysis. The table above shows some of the most commonly ordered sizes of pressed tin and silver capsule; we also offer a variety of other sizes, and many sizes are also available in ultra-light weight tin foil or light weight silver foil. Our smooth wall capsules are also available in a variety of sizes.

Advantages of the lighter weight pressed tin capsules include:

·     Reduced accumulation of ash in the reaction tube, allowing more samples to be analysed before ash removal.

·     Reduced blank values thus lowering minimum sample size constraints.

Advantages of the lighter weight silver capsules include:

·     Reduced accumulation of ash in the reaction tube, allowing more samples to be analysed before ash removal.

·     Reduced blank values thus lowering minimum sample size constraints. 

·     Significantly lower prices than the ‘standard weight’ versions – doubly important as silver has increased so much in cost during the past few years.

These products offer the same high quality and value for money that is typical of Elemental Microanalysis’ entire product range.

Available to order from our ISO 9001 factory online, by email, telephone or fax. Elemental Microanalysis offers extensive knowledge of analysis, 40 years of experience and a worldwide reputation for excellence.
