The mining industry leverages several analytical tools to investigate various ore types and grades. This article will briefly explore the role of spectroscopy in modern ore analysis.

Radiation shielding is critical in numerous industries to protect both humans and equipment from harmful exposure. It can be achieved with glass coatings, as Mo-Sci explains in this article.

Crystallography provides insight into the structure and properties of materials at the atomic level. While X-ray diffraction has traditionally dominated crystallography, Raman spectroscopy is now emerging as a powerful complementary tool for studying crystalline systems and advancing our understanding of materials.

In this article, AZoNano offers a comprehensive guide to diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, including its working principle and applications.

Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy is a type of absorption spectroscopy where, rather than measuring the transmitted beam through the sample, the light reflected from the sample is measured instead. It is a common method for measuring opaque samples that absorb too strongly to be measured in transmission.

Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is now one of the most appealing and widely used methods of analysis over the last four decades as it provides a non-destructive analytical tool that allows fast classification of a wide range of samples.
