This is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) issued by Argonne National Laboratory (operated by UChicago Argonne, LLC under Department of Energy contract DE-AC02-06CH11357) for Dynamic Light Scattering Instrument equipment and services. The solicitation number is 6-B185-Q-00434-00, with quotations due by September 11, 2026 at 3:00 PM CST. Argonne seeks four line items: a Zetasizer Advance Configured System, a Zetasizer Advance Series Lab model (blue), an MPT-3 Titrator and Degasser with USB converter, and installation services. The equipment must meet specific technical requirements including zeta potential measurement range of 5 nm to 100 μm, particle size measurement capability for sub-micron particles, material compatibility with mining and battery materials, auto-titration capability with step size less than 0.25 pH, operation at pH 1 or lower and pH 13 or higher, degassing capability, and Microsoft-compatible software with data logging and customizable analytical procedures.

The RFQ will be evaluated based on lowest price for technically acceptable proposals. Offerors must provide firm fixed pricing on an F.O.B. Destination basis with Net 30 payment terms and must include a signed copy of the RFQ document, a fully executed ANL-70A Representations and Certifications form, and country of origin documentation for the proposed equipment. Proposals lacking these required items will be considered incomplete. All resulting purchase orders will be subject to Argonne Terms and Conditions (ANL-71-COM dated 10/22/2025), Moderate Risk On-Site Supplemental Conditions (ANL-366M dated 10/01/2024), and will be exempt from Illinois taxes. Shipping insurance should be excluded as Argonne is self-insured. Inquiries should be directed to Laura Sanchez at (630) 252-1621 or sanchezl@anl.gov.
