HUST VN handed over a spectrometer to analyze lead alloy

In December 2023, HUST Vietnam urgently handed over 3 sets of Optical Emission Spectrometers to analyze material composition to customers. One of them is the S5 Solaris Plus for a customer in Dong Nai to analyze lead alloys in battery production.

To ensure the physicochemical properties of the anode in the battery, controlling impurities in lead alloys such as: Ca, Sn, Al, Fe, Cu, Zn, Sb, As, Bi, Ni, Co, Ag, ... is very important. Analyzing the composition of the lead anode, if performed using an AAS atomic absorption spectrometer, takes a lot of time to prepare the sample, and the analysis is quite complicated, often only yielding 6 or 8 elements at the same time; Meanwhile, if using an OES (optical emission spectrometer,) sample preparation using a lathe only takes less than 1 minute; Analysis time is less than 30 seconds, immediately giving results of 16 impurity elements in Pb:

Below are some images during installation and instruction for customer:

                                                General instructions about the machine for customer

                                                             Operation training for customer

                                                                  Customers operate it themselves

Customers were very satisfied with the quality of the machine, the simplicity of operation and the benefits of the OES method. We sincerely thank our customers for trusting in choosing the products and services provided by HUST Vietnam!

Best regards,

HUST VN.
