Black Mass CRMs: Recycled Li-NMC Batteries

Black Mass CRMs

The Black Mass Certified Reference Materials (CRM) are designed for the elemental analysis of recycled Lithium battery materials. The growth of the use of Lithium-Ion batteries and the constricted supply chain of the essential raw materials contained in these energy storage devices has led to many of them being designated as critical materialsThis designation has led to an increase in the recycling of these materials and the development of a circular economy for these elements.  
 
These matrix-matched, ISO 17034 accredited, CRMs are ideal for use in multiple points in the recycling workflow, from raw material sorting to final quality control steps. 
 
Whether you are analyzing by XRF or ICP, these standards can help you maximize your critical material recoveries.  
 
Important Features:
  • Certified for critical elements for Li-NMC batteries 
  • Characterized for contaminants including iron  
  • Particle size of 100% passing 30 µm for optimum homogeneity
  • Appropriate for use with ICP-OES/MS, AA, X RF, LIBS
