Aluminium Sulphate IS EN 1302 Analysis
Is your Liquid Alum 8.0% as Alumina (Al2O3)?
Did you know that Specific Gravity alone is not an appropriate measurement of Alumina content?
Chemifloc Ltd announce that they have sourced an independent laboratory that can now carry out analysis as directed by IS EN 1302.
IS EN 1302 directs that Aluminium should only be measured by EDTA/CDTA complexation and not by techniques such as ICP or similar. This is recommended because of the high margins of error that any other methodology creates due to the massive dilutions that would be required and also other mitigating interferences.
BHP Laboratories, New Road, Thomondgate, Limerick are now in a position to provide this service of independent analysis as directed by IS EN 1302. They can be contacted at www.bhp.ie (Updated 24/4/2012)  Chemifloc and REACH compliancy
