Simple Lubricant Additive Package Quality Control Using HDXRF<sup>®</sup>
6 Feb 2019Professionals in the field of lubrication and tribology are at the forefront of solving many of today's biggest problems. Long recognized for their contributions ensuring safe, reliable, and continuous operation of the most complex machine systems, lubrication and tribology is now a major contributor to reduction in energy use, minimizing maintenance and repairs of equipment, and conservation of natural resources. The Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers (STLE), one of the largest professional societies in the field, estimates that global economies save hundreds of billions of dollars per year with proper application of the science and research being advanced by thousands of professionals around the world.

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.

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.
