Equipment-based analysis

Using a variety of equipment, including X-ray diffractometers (XRD), thermogravimetry differential thermal analyzers (TG-DRA), optical microscopes (OM), scanning electron microscopes (SEM/EDS), electron probe microanalyzers (EPMA), mercury intrusion porosimeters (MIP), and BET surface area analyzers (BET), we conduct evaluations of building materials, such as cement and concrete, natural soil and rock, ceramics, and a range of other inorganic substances.
We utilize this equipment not only for basic property evaluations of inorganic substances, but also for the root cause analysis of the range of phenomena that can arise in cement and concrete and the chemical and mineralogical evaluation of constituent materials (cement, aggregate, etc.) indispensable to concrete construction diagnoses and surveys.
