MATERION PRECIOUS METALS ASSAYING
MATERION PRECIOUS METALS ASSAYING
Materion’s experienced chemists and technicians meticulously examine and weigh metal scrap. They seek to determine the most appropriate sampling technology and technique for each material type. The assaying process allows us to achieve precise measurement and extract maximum value from reclaimed material, translating into cost savings.
TESTING CAPABILITIES PROVIDE ULTIMATE VALUE
TESTING CAPABILITIES PROVIDE ULTIMATE VALUE
Our assaying capabilities include high-purity materials testing and ultra-trace-level testing for minor and trace elements in metal alloys and dopants. Our experts perform a variety of tests depending on your requirements, including fire assay, wet gravimetric, ICP, GDMS and XRF.
SCRAP RECOVERY OPTIMIZES VALUE
SCRAP RECOVERY OPTIMIZES VALUE
Our processes enable scrap recovery solutions for a broad variety of production materials and scrap waste. This includes:
- semiconductor
- compound semiconductor wafers
- wafer manufacturing waste
- sputter targets, jewelry and jewelry manufacturing scrap
- spent plating solutions and catalysts
- mining ore
- refiner/smelter byproducts.
We provide value through our material process technologies, which utilize precious metals and their manufacturing byproducts. We capture shield coatings and chamber scrapings, and recover films coated with precious metals.
PRECISION MEASUREMENT YIELDS MATERIAL SAVINGS
PRECISION MEASUREMENT YIELDS MATERIAL SAVINGS
Our precious metal recovery from plating solutions allow us to deliver maximum value with faster settlements. That means shorter return of value to the customer and improved cash flow. With our supplier base, we help insulate you from volatile precious metals markets through our price risk management program.
