Can CHNS analysis miss sulfur detection?

14 February 2025 0 10K Report

We analyzed our sample for elemental composition using the ThermoFisher Scientific Flash Smart V CHNS/O analyzer, which did not detect any sulfur. However, XRF analysis revealed approximately 60% sulfur content. Why is there such a significant difference between the two methods? What could be the possible reasons for this discrepancy?
