Results for tag: "Positive Material Identification"

Positive Material Identification (PMI) is a process used in chemical engineering to identify the chemical composition of a material. It is used to verify that the material is of the correct grade and meets the required specifications. PMI is typically used in the manufacturing of products such as pharmaceuticals, food, and chemicals. It is also used in the construction of pipelines, tanks, and other structures. PMI is a non-destructive testing method that uses a variety of techniques such as X-ray fluorescence, optical emission spectroscopy, and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. These techniques allow for the identification of the material’s chemical composition without damaging the material. PMI is an important tool for ensuring the safety and quality of products and structures. It is used to detect the presence of contaminants, verify the grade of the material, and ensure that the material meets the required specifications. Companies in the PMI market include Thermo Fisher Scientific, Olympus Corporation, Bruker Corporation, Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation, and Shimadzu Corporation. Show Less Read more
