Vanadium – a transition metal with special potential. An interesting topic which for example is broadened through the possible uses of vanadium in the energy transition. In this article, the material properties of vanadium are discussed and the sample preparation described.

Non-ferrous metals punching waste respectively recycling materials accrue during the production of electronic components. The production of representative samples can simply be achieved with FRITSCH Cutting Mills.
Comminuting ductile materials such as precious metals can be challenging, but can be mastered with FRITSCH Planetary Mills.

In the metallurgy an alloy is a mixture with metallic characteristics consisting of two or more chemical elements, from which at least one is a metal. Different and altering compositions always result in an analysis of the contents.
Selenium – listed in the periodic system of the elements in the 6th main group, below sulphur, is unknown to many. It belongs to the essential trace elements and is integrated by the body in the so called 21st amino acid. But still, it’s a toxin and the comminution of it requires a certain caution.
