Optical emission spectroscopy using arc and spark excitation (Arc Spark OES) is the preferred method for trace metal analysis to determine the chemical composition of metallic samples. This process is widely used in the metal making industries, including primary producers, foundries, die casters and manufacturing.
Optical emission spectrometry involves applying electrical energy in the form of spark generated between an electrode and a metal sample, whereby the vaporized atoms are brought to a high energy state within a so-called "discharge plasma".
These excited atoms and ions in the discharge plasma create a unique emission spectrum specific to each element, as shown at right. Thus, a single element generates numerous characteristic emission spectral lines.
INCLUSION RATING TESTING:- Non-metallic inclusions process :- Non-metallic inclusions are chemical compounds and non metals that are present in steel and other alloys. They are the product of chemical reactions, physical effects, and contamination that occurs during the melting and pouring process. Sources of inclusions formation Non-metallic inclusions that arise because of different reaction during metal production are called natural or indigenous. They include oxide , sulfide , alumina silicate and Globular oxide .Singl Globular oxide Apart from natural inclusions there are also parts of Slag, refectories , material of a casting mould (the material the metal contacts during production) in the metal. Such non-metallic inclusions are called foreign, accidental or exogenous. Most inclusions in the reduction smelting of metal formed because of admixture dissolubility decreasing during cooling and consolidation. Non-metallic...
