NIST SRM 2710a Certified Reference Material

Prepared for Handheld XRF Analysis The NIST SRM 2710a Montana I Soil Certified Reference Material (CRM) is one of the most widely recognized standards for validating handheld XRF analyzers, laboratory XRF systems, ICP-OES, ICP-MS, and other elemental analysis methods. Produced by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), SRM 2710a contains certified concentrations for numerous major and trace elements in a natural soil matrix with elevated contamination levels. This Alloy Geek preparation is specifically configured for handheld XRF spectrometers. Each sample is professionally prepared in an XRF sample cup and sealed with ultra-thin 4 µm Prolene® film, allowing the material to be analyzed directly without additional sample preparation. Simply analyze the sample with your handheld XRF or place it on your test stand for instant testing. This configuration provides a convenient, repeatable quality control sample for laboratories, environmental professionals, mining operations, and field technicians using handheld XRF analyzers. Applications Handheld XRF quality control Daily instrument performance verification Calibration verification Operator training Environmental soil testing Brownfield investigations Mining and geochemical exploration Laboratory proficiency testing Method validation Why Choose NIST SRM 2710a?
