Detect and analyze unknown inert compounds

The need of being able to detect, identify and analyze unknown inert compounds remains a challenge for analytical companies and laboratories. In order to succeed and to identify specific molecules based on their weight, research labs, hospitals, universities and pharmaceutical companies have been using the latest and up-to-date mass spectrometry techniques.  Exosens offers highly sensitive and accurate detectors that can be set up in different types of mass spectrometers : Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LCMS), Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GCMS) and Residual Gas Analysis (RGA).

Exosens ion and electron detectors are custom design engineered for most of the world’s mass spectrometers. According to customer needs, Exosens provides detectors with superior sensitivity, a wider range of spatial or temporal resolution, and the ability to detect both positive and negative ions. Exosens has a strong track record in mass spectrometry, offering proven technology with high level of reliability.

Precise Stress and Impact Characterization

Characterization of mechanical properties such as Young’s modulus, shear strain, viscosity and fracture toughness is very important in the development process of new alloys and composite materials. Researchers typically carry out many different measurements like tensile displacement tests, compression tests and fatigue tests using extensometer and split-Hopkinson bars setups. Infrared imaging allows to characterize the energy released by the investigated material as it undergoes elastic and plastic deformation up to the fracture point.
