Eastern Applied Research (EAR) has developed and made available gold karat standard sets for XRF analysers.
Calibration standards are an often overlooked variable that can affect the performance of an XRF analyser and the company said proper use of the gold standards will increase instrument accuracy.
When dealing with high gold prices, the slightest variation in accuracy can be a costly one.
The Eastern Applied Research standards were developed to avoid unreliable measurements.
Gold standards offered include 10-karat, 14-karat, 18-karat and 22-karat for yellow and white gold.
They are available as individual pieces or as a complete set and list the full body of constituents on each sample.
