We can develop and validate test methodologies to help you measure desired
physical, chemical or elemental components or other properties of your
silicone-containing materials.
 | Develop test methods for measuring silicon(e) or other
components in materials |
 | Modify existing test methods to meet new needs |
 | Provide procedures for conducting testing |
 | Train your laboratory personnel or conduct testing for you |
 | Validate test methods |
Silicones pose unique and difficult challenges for test method development.
Our expertise in developing analytical methods for silicone testing is unique,
proven and substantially more diverse than contract laboratories.

Measuring Silicone Concentration in Lip Balm
A pharmaceutical company was formulating a new lip balm with silicone as an
active ingredient and needed an assay developed to determine silicone content.
The method also needed to be validated using Good Laboratory Practice (GLP)
protocol for FDA approval. Dow Corning Analytical Solutions were able to
develop and validate a gas chromatography functionality method to quantify
silicone in their complex sample matrix. This test method was later transferred
to our customer's testing laboratory.
