LCS Laboratory Inc. offers comprehensive chemical and physical testing services to compare materials from different suppliers. Using advanced spectral and chromatography techniques, we assess the composition of your samples. When spectra match precisely, you can confidently confirm that the materials are identical.

Defining Acceptable Tolerances

As the client, you define what constitutes an acceptable match. For instance, if comparing the gold content of two coins, you might allow for a ±5% tolerance in gold content. However, for authenticity verification, you might require that gold, silver, and lead content all match within a specific error range.

Recommended Testing Techniques

Depending on your materials, we recommend:

  • Metal Analysis for alloys and minerals
  • FTIR Analysis for polymers and complex mixtures
  • HPLC or GC Scan for liquid samples
  • XRF Analysis for minerals and ceramics
  • Additional tests, such as pH, density, and particle sizing

Our expertise ensures accurate results, allowing you to make informed decisions regarding material equivalency.
