Our ASTM E3047 Testing Procedure
Sample Preparation
The sample surface is cleaned, ground, and polished to obtain a flat, contamination-free surface.
1Instrument Calibration
The Spark-AES instrument is calibrated using certified reference materials of similar alloy composition.
2Spark Excitation
A high-energy spark excites atoms on the sample surface, causing emission of characteristic wavelengths.
3Data Acquisition & Analysis
Emitted light is analyzed to determine elemental composition and concentration.
