EVISA's Material Database

EVISA's Material Database is part of EVISA's Database system, meant to empower our users to get easy access to relevant information with respect to trace elements and their speciation. The Material Database (as all other databases) is heavily interlinked with all other databases and information pages of EVISA's web site. That means that relevant information is just one mouse click ahead !

Currently, the material database contains information about more than 1150 materials.

You can search within the Material Database for the:

• name of the material
• a keyword (see above)
  
• its producer
• the type of the material
• the element
• the species
  

In order to improve the versatility of the material database, we have added keywords with related links:
