PBS-62

Pulverised Bauxite, 1kg jar

PBS-62 is a pulverised bauxite certified reference material (CRM), certified in accordance with ISO Guide 35:2017 and ISO 17034:2016. This CRM is specifically designed for quality control (QC) of XRF and TGA analysis in bauxite processing and alumina production.

Key Features 

  • Certified concentrations for major components and trace elements.
  • High LOI1000 (18.33%), reflecting typical bauxite mineralogy.
  • Produced via multi-stage crushing, pulverisation (≤53µm), and homogenisation for uniformity.
  • Supplied in 1kg press-sealed plastic jars, with 10g sachets available upon request for blind laboratory submissions.
  • Stable for 10 years when stored sealed under normal conditions.
