JFE-TEC manufactures and sells originally developed standard reference materials.
Standard reference materials are indispensable for securing the reliability of analytical values and methods. JFE-TEC's standard reference materials can help you keep your analysis equipment in proper operation.
Catalogs of JFE-TEC original products
Catalogs listing our original products are available by request.
In general, emission spectrometers and X-ray fluorescence analysis devices are widely used in plants producing cast iron and various types of alloys.
The users of these devices need calibration specimens to confirm the stability of the devices.
JFE-TEC has established methods to manufacture calibration specimens for use for such instrumental analysis through experiments and research over many years. Our original calibration specimens feature extremely low segregation within specimens and fine homogeneity of metallic structure.
Catalogs of ready-made standard reference materials are available.
Please inquire to choose from our wide-ranging products.
In addition to ready-made products, we also produce specimens tailored to the component elements and content range you desire. The minimum unit of order is as small as one piece per type. Please feel free to inquire.

The use of specific hazardous substances is more widely regulated along with the move toward stricter chemical substance controls led by Europe. JFE-TEC offers specimens used for analysis of lead (Pb) and chromium (Cr) contained in metals to ensure compliance with these regulations.

For measuring oxygen concentrations in metallic materials, direct solid analysis methods (optical emission spectrometry [OES] and glow discharge spectrometry [GDS]), which have not been applicable in conventional processes, are becoming available these years for determination of oxygen. However, there have been no standard reference specimens with sufficient homogeneity for oxygen analysis on the market.
JFE-TEC has succeeded in developing highly homogeneous standard reference specimens for oxygen analysis in the high concentration range, using a unique manufacturing method. The product is now available from JFE-TEC.

JFE-TEC sells specimens for use for analysis of gas components (C, S, O, N, and H) in steel.
Specimens for use for O, N, and H analysis are produced in pin or ball shape with a weight of 0.5 g or 1.0 g, and those for C and S analysis are processed into fine grains. These specimens completely eliminate the need for troublesome pretreatment such as cutting, polishing, and washing. This reduces variation in analytical results due to personal differences in the way pretreatment is performed and enables quick, accurate confirmation of the performance of analysis equipment.
