A History of Expertise and Innovation

RJ Lee Group has assessed environmental issues since the early 1980s when our Energy Technology Consultants (ETC) pioneered the recognition of specific air quality patterns. We developed a cutting-edge technique for identifying, measuring, and characterizing particles in the air using computer-controlled scanning electron microscopy (CCSEM).

RJ Lee Group has worked with clients in various industries, including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), to assess and provide solutions for environmental factors that could affect our health. Our services have grown over the years, from setting controls for unbound nanoparticles (UNP) to designing and building test chambers to simulate specific environmental conditions.

Today we offer our expertise for our clients’ environmental and compliance concerns and perform rigorous assessment and management of potential environmental risks.

Spray Coating Steel

Raman Spectroscopy

In the coating process, the amount and uniformity of the coating applied influence the stability and performance of the product. We use surface techniques such as x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Raman spectroscopy (Raman) to analyze the coatings.

For nondestructive, microscopic chemical analysis and imaging where detailed chemical images are required, Raman is the preferred method. Raman images provide information on individual chemical components, polymorphs, and variations in crystallinity. Raman spectroscopy can be used in pharmaceuticals, nanomaterials, carbon compounds, paper manufacturing, microelectronics, and biotechnology.
