Testing Capabilities

Do you need a laboratory with extensive capability and know-how to provide answers to your testing challenges?

Dow Corning Analytical Solutions - Listing of Instrument Capabilities
 
 

Dow Corning Analytical Solutions laboratories offer a full spectrum of chemical testing capability to help you characterize materials and troubleshoot problems related to research, development, manufacturing and application issues.

Characterization toolbox:

  • Chemical Structure Identification (PDF size = 163 KB) (Raman, IR, NMR, UV-VIS)
  • Chromatography and Separations (GPC, HPLC, IC, GC)
  • Mass Spectrometry (PDF size = 180 KB) (GC-MS, LC-MS, FT-MS, GC-TOF-MS)
  • Microscopy (optical, AFM, SEM, TEM, laser confocal microscopy)
  • Surface Analysis (XPS or ESCA, contact angle, surface tension, interferometry)
  • Elemental Testing (WDXRF, ICP-AES, ICP-MS, XRD)
  • Thermal Analysis (PDF size = 172 KB) (TGA, DSC, DMA, TMA, Py-GCMS, flashpoint)

Find additional information in our analytical capabilities brochure.(PDF size = 700 KB)

Advanced Capabilities:

  • Time of Flight GCMS - Exact mass determination
  • Pyrolysis GCMS (Py-GCMS) – Identification of degradation products up to 800C
  • Cryo-Field Emission Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) – Capable of  highly resolving structure in liquid samples
  • X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS or ESCA) - Determine element composition and oxidation state within the top few nanometers of surfaces 
  • Solid State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) – Characterize the molecular structure in solid materials
  • Infrared (IR) and Raman Microscopy – Characterize chemical composition on a micron scale
