Analytical Chemistry
We can help you to assess your
control measures in protecting against exposure to both inorganic
and organic chemicals within the workplace. We provide highly
sensitive analytical methods for the analysis of a wide and diverse
range of chemicals to levels to monitor concentrations of chemicals
in air, liquids or solids.
Our assays enable you to
demonstrate compliance with Great Britain's Workplace Exposure
Limits (WELs, see EH40 for
current list) and we are authors for the Methods for Determining
Hazardous Substances (MDHS) guidance.
Our services cover the following areas:
- Organic
analyses - including volatile organic compounds (VOCs,
solvents), isocyanates, formaldehyde.
- Inorganic
analyses - including metals analysis, respirable crystalline
silica, acid gases
- Process fumes such as from
welding, soldering, diesel engine exhaust
- Bespoke
services - including product emission analysis, containment
testing, proficiency testing, bulk material analysis
-
Real Time Measurement
Our full range of analyses
are suitable for both personal/static air samples & wipe
samples, catering for small & large batch sizes, with 15-day
turnaround times for our routine assays. Where requested by the
customer, HSL can also provide wipe kits, thermal desorption tubes
and filters or pre-loaded IOM cassettes, with advice on sampling
times and recommendations for transportation &
storage.
