Quantitative Analysis of Cement by EDX-8000
5 Mar 2014EDX instruments have become capable in recent years of analysis accuracy comparable to that of low-output wavelength dispersive type instruments. Not only do they offer such conveniences as the ability to analyze powders as they are, their range of applicability has greatly widened to include the analysis of such substances as cement. This application note describes the analysis of pressure-formed cement standard powder samples using the new model EDX-8000.

X-Ray Diffraction and SpectroscopyX-Ray diffraction & spectroscopy are used in material characterization to discern the structure and elemental composition of a sample. X-Ray diffractometers (XRD) are superior instruments in elucidating the dimensional atomic structure of crystalline materials, including powders, thin films and single crystals. For large unit cells or ordered macromolecules, consider small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). X-ray spectroscopic techniques include X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), both providing simple and accurate methods for determining the elemental composition of a material. Energy dispersive (EDXRF) and wavelength dispersive (WDXRF) XRF spectrometers are available, as well as handheld/portable devices. High-resolution, 3D microstructure characterization of materials can be achieved with X-ray microscopes combining sub-micron resolution imaging with 3D computed tomography.
