Description
Certified Reference Material (CRM) - For XRF, OES, ICP-OES, and Combustion Analysis
The Alloy Geek 1086 Carbon Steel Certified Reference Material (CRM) is a high-carbon steel reference designed for laboratories, metallurgical QA teams, recyclers, and research facilities requiring traceable, high-carbon calibration material. With a nominal carbon content of approximately 0.84 wt.%, this CRM is ideal for validating analytical performance in steels approaching the upper limits of plain-carbon compositions.
This material is certified for major, minor, and trace elements and supports a wide range of analytical techniques commonly used in steel chemistry verification and method development.
