Single and multi-element standards of fused borate beads are customized for your calibration.
Manufactured from Certified Reference Materials (CRM) or customized for your analytical requirements.
The Fused Calibration Beads are 40mm or 32mm in diameter, approximately 4 mm thick, and perfectly flat.

Calculate the composition of your iron ore samples with absolute certainty using XRF Scientific synthetic iron ore reference materials. Based on years of practical experience in geological chemistry, our synthetic compounds are custom-built for calibrating X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometers in mining and exploration. Our unique expertise yields a versatile product suitable for assessing various iron ores irrespective of mineralogical type.

XRF Scientific Reference Materials:
Our proprietary synthetic iron ore reference materials are extremely high purity and compliant with ISO 9516-1:2003. ISO 9516 is an essential standard for synthetic iron ore reference materials, as it sets six as a necessary standard for synthetic iron ore reference materials and sets out a comprehensive procedural basis.
The XRF Scientific iron ore calibration standard goes beyond the ISO method 9516 by adding sodium chloride (NaCl) to the chemical matrix. Iron industry experts specifically requested this addition to compensate for the method’s lack of silica (SiO2). The result is a certified reference material that exceeds the fundamentals of compliance, improving calibration reliability and, ultimately, analytical results.
