DEFRAUDULATION STUDY & CHARACTERIZATION OF UNKNOWN PRODUCTS

What is a defraudulation or reverse engineering study?

Defraudulation is a process aimed at analyzing a commercial product, often composed of a complex mixture, to determine its precise composition. Thanks to various chemical analysis techniques, not only are the types of raw materials used identified, but also the exact quantities present in the product formulation. This approach makes it possible to understand how a product was manufactured, by breaking down its constituent elements.

What scientific defraudulation studies are possible?

We intervene with industries in the context of:

Characterizations of unknown products (traces, paints, powders, greases, liquids, metals, unknown alloys)
Formulation research (paint, varnish, resin, fillers, pigments, medium...)
Characterizing the product to identify the source of pollution on the production line or at factory outputs.

CHEMICAL ANALYSES

What on-site chemical analyses are possible?

Thanks to our technical resources, we operate on-site (throughout France and Europe) for all requests in the context of Chemical Risks, Industrial Pollution, and trace characterization research.

On-site measurements for the evaluation of Chemical Risks: observations (opto-digital microscope), pH, liquid tests, gases...; rapid dosage kits
Trace analysis using mobile laboratory equipment: FTIR infrared spectrometry, X-ray fluorescence spectrometry, etc.
Sampling: sampling methods adapted to the context (traces, air, water, soil, liquid, solid, powder...)

What chemical analyses are carried out in the laboratory?

Samples are analyzed using different methods depending on the context:

Spectroscopic analyses
Trace and alloy analysis by MEB-EDX
Analysis of greases, oils, synthetic textiles, dyes, polymers by pyrolysis gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
Trace detection and comparison by isotopic analyses
Depending on the context, we combine laboratory analysis techniques to characterize unknown products.

POLLUTION & CHEMICAL RISKS

Pollution and chemical risks are a common issue that can lead to numerous risks for workers and the company's activity.

What to do in the event of industrial-origin pollution?

It is important to limit the impact on operators and the finished product. OSE Services offers on-site intervention to:

Have a global understanding of the context of the appearance of this pollution
Carry out on-site analyses depending on the identified case (particles, gas, liquid, raw materials...)
Carry out samples for further laboratory analysis

Pollution in a company can be of unknown origin: at OSE Services, the engineers are experts in operational physico-chemical analyses and in chemical risks. They go directly on-site to carry out analyses on-site, equipped with professional portable equipment and transportable analysis instruments allowing quick identification of products to obtain immediate answers.

Are you Judicial Experts, Court Bailiffs, Lawyers or Magistrates and looking for a sapiteur expert laboratory? (Courts, judicial experts, sapiteurs...)

We are judicial chemistry experts, approved by the Courts of Appeal. We intervene for amicable disputes, with Court Bailiffs, lawyers, magistrates and at the request of courts and fellow judicial experts.
We intervene with Industries within the framework of characterizations of unknown products (traces, paints, powders, greases, liquids, metals, unknown alloys) in order to characterize the product to identify the source of pollution on the production line or at the factory outlets.

Various advanced technical means for the analysis, identification and qualification of organic and inorganic chemical substances.

Chemical analyses of traces and unknown materials (judicial intervention, chemical contamination...)

INTERVENTION: CHARACTERIZATION OF UNKNOWN PRODUCTS / UNKNOWN PARTICLES

What is an unknown product?

An unknown product refers to any substance—liquid, solid, gas, or microparticles—whose chemical composition, structure, or properties are not clearly defined.

How is an unknown product characterized?

Being able to identify them is crucial for companies for a variety of reasons and needs.

Depending on the context, an unknown product may be associated with:

Industrial pollution on a production line (microplastics, fibers, greases, metals, fragments, etc.): intervention, sampling, and measurements on-site and in the laboratory
Chemical risk situations in a forensic or criminal context (Forensic Police, Crime Scene Investigation): emergency on-site intervention
Characterization of substances following a voluntary or accidental spill: pollution, industrial risks, fire and rescue services (SDIS)
Defomulation studies
Any product, regardless of its state—whether in powder, liquid, or solid form...

PRODUCTION DEFECT

What is the process for identifying the source of a production defect?

As part of chemical analysis aimed at identifying the causes of production defects—such as stained products or unwanted residues—several key steps must be followed.

At Ose Industries, we take care of the entire process:

Context analysis
Sampling
Chemical and physical analyses
Interpretation of results
Delivery of findings along with advice and support

All based on cutting-edge technical resources and our expertise.

Where do unknown products and particles involved in a production defect come from?

The results will help determine whether:

The stains or residues are caused by external contamination
Cross-contamination
An unexpected chemical reaction
Alteration of the raw materials used

What solutions exist to resolve a production defect linked to fine particles or deposits?

Based on the conclusions of the analysis, corrective measures may be recommended, such as:

Adjusting production parameters
Improving cleaning processes
Modifying the raw materials used
