Abstract

In order to manage the quality of Norilsk Nickel MMC’ products the Centre of Standard Samples Development has developed and is currently successfully implementing a system of operations provision with interstate and state standard samples of nickel, cobalt and copper composition. The system wholly corresponds to modern metrological requirements. The Centre of Standard Samples Development fulfilling leading function in the field of standard state samples production and supply to the Company’s operations aims its activity both on the development of new types of standard samples in the form of metals and on widening the range of synthetic oxide standard samples. Developed for the first time metallic state standard samples of nickel and cobalt composition with certified mass fractions of oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, sulfur and carbon were put into practice of the Company’s analytical services work. Samples use provides the possibility to take into account requirements of some consumers to the quality of nickel and copper produce by Norilsk Nickel MMC and also helps to raise competitive ability of the products on the world metals market. Over recent years the Centre fulfilled the work on development, certification in established order, approval and insertion into the State Register of five types of oxide state standard samples and four types of metallic state standard samples. The developed interstate and state standard samples are suitable for fulfillment of the analysis of chemical composition of nickel, cobalt and copper in terms of their conformity with both national and international standards.
