    About the bid

      Technological University Dublin request the supply of an X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscope (XPS). The instrument will be used in the surface analysis of materials. This includes the testing of coatings, surface treatments, interfaces, and raw materials like metals, wood, and plastics, primarily for the medical industry, but also extending to the agriculture, automotive, construction, and other sectors. The XPS allows for detailed chemical analysis of the outermost layer (up to 10 nm) of materials by utilising X-ray irradiation, followed by immediate, precise detection of the surface elements. This provides crucial data on surface changes resulting from environmental exposure or manipulation. The system provided must be fully automated and capable of handling multiple samples of diverse materials and shapes, including solids and powders. This will make it invaluable for industries like medical devices, where precise chemical analysis ensures product performance and quality, particularly when exposed to aggressive environments (corrosive or cleaning agents, weathering).
