Savillex Corporation has been manufacturing fluoropolymer laboratory products since 1976 and has unmatched expertise in the molding and machining of PFA. All our design, tooling, molding, manufacturing, and testing is done in-house, giving us complete control of product quality. Our products are widely used in trace metals analysis-from sample collection through to ICP sample introduction.
The sample introduction system is a critical component of both ICP-OES and ICP-MS instrumentation. The design of the sample introduction system affects all aspects of performance, including sensitivity, stability, washout, matrix tolerance, and also oxide level and isotope ratio precision in ICP-MS. Also, the cleanliness of the materials that come into contact with the sample directly impact the quality of the analytical blank. Our ICP sample introduction products are manufactured using the highest purity grades of PFA resin. With over 35 years experience in fluoropolymer molding and unmatched expertise in the design and molding of PFA components, Savillex is bringing new products and capabilities to ICP-MS and ICP-OES, including the world's first blow molded PFA cyclonic spray chamber.
Savillex sample introduction systems are used across a wide range of ICP-MS and ICP-OES applications including semiconductor, geochemistry, pharmaceutical, environmental, biomedical, and petrochemical.
Based in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, we serve thousands of customers in over 60 countries worldwide through our partners and distributors.
AI and Dual-Sensor Spectroscopy Supercharge Antibiotic Fermentation
June 30th 2025Researchers from Chinese universities have developed an AI-powered platform that combines near-infrared (NIR) and Raman spectroscopy for real-time monitoring and control of antibiotic production, boosting efficiency by over 30%.
Toward a Generalizable Model of Diffuse Reflectance in Particulate Systems
June 30th 2025This tutorial examines the modeling of diffuse reflectance (DR) in complex particulate samples, such as powders and granular solids. Traditional theoretical frameworks like empirical absorbance, Kubelka-Munk, radiative transfer theory (RTT), and the Hapke model are presented in standard and matrix notation where applicable. Their advantages and limitations are highlighted, particularly for heterogeneous particle size distributions and real-world variations in the optical properties of particulate samples. Hybrid and emerging computational strategies, including Monte Carlo methods, full-wave numerical solvers, and machine learning (ML) models, are evaluated for their potential to produce more generalizable prediction models.
