Glass Chemistry

INTEGREX can provide complete glass chemistry (major, minor, and trace metal composition) as well as the analysis of other materials (glass raw materials from around the world, ores, rocks, minerals, ceramics, base and precious metal alloys). A broad and deep expertise in chemistry, geology, industrial mineralogy and materials science underlies our specialties.

Our specialties include:

• Chemical analysis of glass (soda-lime, borosilicate, AF, E, S, C, AR, etc.) and related materials
  
• Chemical analysis of geologic materials for elements from lithium to bismuth
  
• Analysis of glass raw materials from around the world:
  • Sand
    
  • Syenite (Nepheline)
    
  • Soda Ash
    
  • Clay
    
  • Basalt
    
  • Salt Cake
    
  • Limestone
    
  • Spodumene
    
  • Dolomite
    
  • Borate Minerals
