G.N.R. S.r.l. applications

In Metal Industry, checks during all the production processes are extremely necessary, starting from raw material quality control and primary material fusion, up to quality verification before shipping the final product. During all manufacturing phases, forming, molding, die-casting, extrusion, mechanical manufacturing, it is necessary evaluate different chemical-physical parameters in order to give the essential information for production cycle. GNR offers advanced solutions to perform different and wide analytical tasks in the metal industry.

Chemical industry is a relevant matter in everyday life. The most part of products comes from chemical or petrochemical production processes. GNR provides a series of products and solutions for the accurate and complete analysis in the chemical domain. XRF and XRD are techniques more and more used in the petrochemical refinery chain, from the first step of exploration to crude oil production and then during the production of chemicals, oils  fuels and catalysts. For instance, the elementary chemical composition of many compounds may be determined both by traditional X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) and by Total Reflection (TXRF), where it is necessary to verify the presence of micro-traces of pollutants in pure products.

Material Science Materials science, also commonly known as materials engineering, is an interdisciplinary field applying the properties of matter to various areas of science and engineering. Industrial Growth and Technological Science is mixed together to improve everyday’s life. In Material Science domain, GNR can offer valid and reliable solutions for material testing and research.

Regarding the environment and the impact of industry and consumers grow, environmental regulations are developing in line to meet stricter standards. The diversity of sample forms, such as pressed or loose powders, liquids, solid pieces, and the range and concentrations of elements being monitored, present several challenges to those in the industry. GNR could offer TXRF and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) solutions as essential tools for environmental investigations and research.

Drug formulation and testing of related material are subject to more and more severe norms and regulation. Fast response analytical techniques are of primary importance. GNR provides a series of products and solutions for a faster and more reliable analysis in the pharmaceutical  domain. XRF and XRD techniques can be of primary interest to improve quality, reduce costs and grant health safety and competitive advantages. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) is an analytical technique absolutely irreplaceable for pharmaceutical industry and can be exerted during the entire process: from the research stage, the formulation and the production of a new molecule and new pharmacophores.

Advanced clinical analysis is more and more related to the development of new forms of analysis for different medical and forensic objectives. In the Forensic domain, the adoption of analytical instrumentation to reveal the smallest traces of evidence plays a key role in today’s forensic laboratories. Full chain of custody and data control is also desired across all stages of the process. TXRF is an unsurpassed tool granting not destructive tests using a very limited quantity of sample, granting the lowest DL limit and high flexibility, enabling accurate analysis from unique sample.
