Evaluate XRF technologies for Battery Materials with Certified Reference Materials

Run a simple, private method validation using a certified reference material, and compare results with your current techniques.

ICP-OES: A Proven Method

ICP-OES is well established in battery labs and for good reason.

When evaluating additional/alternative techniques like XRF, the priority is clear: ensuring results are understood, comparable, and reliable within your workflow.

Gaining that confidence usually requires structured evaluation and validation.

 Where XRF Adds Value

XRF is not here to replace your existing methods, it complements them where speed and simplicity matter.


Key benefits:

  • Minimal sample preparation
  • Fast results for high-throughput workflows
  • Non-destructive analysis for solids
  • Lower operational cost (no expensive acids and gases)

XRF vs ICP-OES

Main Differences
  • XRF is faster, requires minimal sample prep, and is non-destructive for solid samples. ICP-OES is more sensitive to trace elements and liquids but requires destructive acid digestion.
  • XRF provides faster results with near-zero daily consumables. ICP-OES has higher operational costs, primarily due to argon gas consumption.
  • This makes XRF suitable for quick, non-destructive screening of solids and high-throughput quality control.
XRF – Preparation Time for 15 samples
  • XRF is fast and requires minimal sample prep and is non-destructive for solid samples. 
  • Sample preparation is one of the biggest bottlenecks in routine analysis.
  • This can make a real difference in daily lab workload and turnaround times.
ICP-OES – Preparation Time for 15 samples

A Simple, Private Way to Evaluate XRF

No exposure. Just a clear comparison.

We know your data is sensitive. That’s why this is a private, one-to-one method validation, not a group study.

  • We measure a certified reference material (CRM) using XRF technologies
  • You receive the same material and run your standard method
  • We review results together, privately


What you gain:

A practical evaluation, based on your data.

  • Clear understanding of differences between methods
  • Confidence in where XRF fits in your workflow
  • No theoretical assumptions
