29 Nov 2012

This application note demonstrates quantitative analysis for Portland and aluminate cements by the fusion method according to ASTM C114-11 using the Rigaku Supermini 200, a Benchtop sequential wavelength dispersive XRF spectrometer.

Supermini 200 Benchtop WDXRF Spectrometer

Rigaku Corporation

The new Supermini200 has improved software capabilities as well as a better footprint. As the world's only high-power benchtop sequential wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence (WDXRF) spectrometer for elemental analysis of oxygen (O) through uranium (U) of almost any material, the Rigaku Supermini200 uniquely delivers low cost-of-ownership (COA) with high resolution and lower limits-of-detection (LLD). Not only is the Rigaku Supermini200 an affordable choice for your XRF elemental analysis needs, the running costs are also low. P10 gas for the flow proportional detector is the only consumable. The Supermini200 does not require a source of cooling water, plumbing, or an external chiller, thereby decreasing system maintenance and lowering the overall lifetime cost of ownership of the system and yearly budgets for consumables and maintenance.Supermini is the only high powered (200 W) X-ray tube benchtop WDXRF system, providing excellent excitation resulting in lower detection limits and shorter measurement times. A unique and proprietary optical system is also employed to enhance sensitivity beyond the gains of the tube power.Supermini 200 Benchtop WDXRF Spectrometer Features: Analyze oxygen through uranium (O → U) Analyze: solids, liquids, powders, alloys and thin films Atmosphere: air, helium or vacuum X-ray tube: 50 kV, 200 W Pd-anode Primary beam filter: Zr is standard; Al optional Detectors: F-PC and scintillation Crystals: 3-position changer Autosampler: 12-position standard Vacuum: rotary pump standard Power: 100 – 120V (50/60 Hz) 15A or 200 – 240V (50/60 Hz) 10A

Fluorescence SpectroscopyFluorometers and spectrofluorometers (also called fluorescence spectrometers) are used to measure the intensity and wavelength of fluorescent light emitted from a sample after excitation by illumination. Spectrofluorometers utilize monochromators to select the desired wavelengths, whereas filter fluorometers employ a set of filters. Spectrofluorometers for measuring steady-state fluorescence and lifetime fluorescence (or time-resolved fluorescence) are available, as well as fluorescence microscopes and microplate readers.

It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.
