Highly repeatable determination of sulfur (and carbon) in copper base materials

During copper production the main interest is controlling the sulfur content, as high concentrations of sulfur have been linked to embrittlement.

The method of choice for the quantification of sulfur and carbon concentrations in copper or copper alloys such as brass or bronze in a broad concentration range is the combustion method. This Application Note demonstrates how the inductar® CS cube combustion analyzer fulfills these requirements and more.
