Abstract

The application of the arrangement with a secondary target for the X-ray fluorescent analysis of microimpurities in water solutions without sample destructions and preliminary sample preparations is considered. The limiting contrast values of fluorescence spectra are estimated, the limits of detecting impurities by the arrangement are theoretically calculated and experimentally measured (C min is smaller than 0.5 ppm). The range of chemical elements, which are efficiently excited by the secondary target, is determined by the C min criterion.
