Industry news

Rigaku Corporation is pleased to announce its attendance at the 2016 Materials Science and Technology meeting and exhibition (MST 2016) at the Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City, Utah, October 23-27. Rigaku will be promoting its latest lines of X-ray analytical instrumentation at Booth # 332.

MST brings together scientists, engineers, suppliers and students to discuss current research and technical applications, and to shape the future of materials science and technology. It is the product of a joint partnership among four leading materials science related societies – The American Ceramic Society (ACerS), Association for Iron & Steel Technology (AIST), ASM International, and The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society (TMS).

Rigaku provides analytical solutions for heavy industry, chemistry, physics, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, semiconductor, and nanotechnology. Materials analysis technologies from Rigaku include X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS).

X-Ray Diffraction and SpectroscopyX-Ray diffraction & spectroscopy are used in material characterization to discern the structure and elemental composition of a sample. X-Ray diffractometers (XRD) are superior instruments in elucidating the dimensional atomic structure of crystalline materials, including powders, thin films and single crystals. For large unit cells or ordered macromolecules, consider small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). X-ray spectroscopic techniques include X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), both providing simple and accurate methods for determining the elemental composition of a material. Energy dispersive (EDXRF) and wavelength dispersive (WDXRF) XRF spectrometers are available, as well as handheld/portable devices. High-resolution, 3D microstructure characterization of materials can be achieved with X-ray microscopes combining sub-micron resolution imaging with 3D computed tomography. Find the best XRD and XRF spectrometers in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Polymeric MaterialsPolymeric materials are widely used in industries ranging from biomedical devices to packaging and electronics. Research into these materials focuses on their properties, including strength, flexibility, and degradation. Advances in polymer science have enabled the development of more sustainable and high-performance materials. Explore the best polymeric material products in our peer-reviewed product directory; compare products, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.X-Ray FluorescenceX-ray fluorescence (XRF) is an analytical technique used to determine the elemental composition of materials. It is widely used in geology, materials science, and environmental testing for detecting heavy metals and other elements. Browse our peer-reviewed product directory to find the best XRF systems, compare products, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.X-Ray SourceNanomaterialsNanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes, fullerenes and nanoparticles are a group of materials that measure between 1-1000nm for a single unit. Analysis techniques include AFM, electron microscopy and super resolution microscopy.
