ISO 11495 Determination of Ruthenium in Precious Metal Alloys Testing

The ISO 11495 standard provides a precise method for the determination of ruthenium content in precious metal alloys, ensuring accurate and reliable results. This is crucial for quality management and compliance in the mining sector where precision is paramount.

Our laboratory adheres strictly to this international standard to provide clients with dependable test results. The process involves several critical steps including sample preparation, digestion, and subsequent analysis by atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) or other suitable techniques.

The importance of accurate ruthenium content cannot be overstated for precious metal alloys used in jewelry, dental implants, and electronic components. Inaccuracies can lead to substandard products that may not meet the required purity standards set by regulatory bodies such as the World Gold Council (WGC).

Our team of experts ensures every test meets ISO 11495 requirements. We utilize state-of-the-art equipment calibrated according to international standards, guaranteeing consistent and reliable results.
