X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy
Basically there are two principal techniques used for sample preparation in X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF): making a flux or pressing the sample into tablet form. Fluxing digestion is always necessary if a high degree of precision is required and Spectromelt® borates can be used for this procedure. In automated sample preparation of powdered samples, speed of analysis is most important. For this purpose, the sample preparation is performed by grinding and tabletting aid. This process is perfectly assisted by the new Spectromelt® C 20.
