Abstract
X-ray fluorescence analysis is applied in the light-metal industry for determination of contaminants in pure and ultrapure products in concentrations from 1 to 100 ppm as well as for the determination of major components. A further area of application is the analysis of light-metal alloys such as silicon-iron, aluminum-iron, or silicon-aluminum. X-ray fluorescence intensities are sometimes affected by texture and grain size of the alloy; in these cases correct analyses cannot be obtained without previous chemical decomposition. Reference to the literature is made in the following sections.
