Sample analysis requests for CHN, Halide, Surface Area Analysis, and ICP are submitted through the FBS Web Portal. Requests for any other analysis should be emailed to the lab. 

All samples for ICP, CHN, and Halide analysis must have an additional theoretical sample composition form attached to the corresponding FBS analysis request form. 

Fillable forms can be downloaded from the links below:
