Superior Quality Control of Jet Engine Surface Coating using Atomic Absorption at Oerlikon Metco Inc.

Dr Roger Ng, Oerlikon Metco Inc., discusses the benefits of using flame atomic absorption spectrometry for quality analysis of surface coatings for a variety of industries, including coatings for jet engines. The easy-to-use Trace AI 1200 and Trace 1800 from Aurora Biomed enable fast generation of results and better definition of absorbance peaks, providing Dr Ng’s laboratory with high-performance and superior data. Hear how Dr Ng hopes the Trace 1800, which can detect more than 70 elements at ppt level and incorporates micro-volume sample injection of samples from as little as 20 μL, will help to improve coating characteristics for a variety of applications.
