Standard Guide for Correction of Interelement Effects in X-Ray Spectrometric Analysis
The following bibliographic material is provided to assist you with your purchasing decision:
Scope
1.1 This guide is an introduction to mathematical procedures for correction of interelement (matrix) effects in quantitative X-ray spectrometric analysis.
1.1.1 The procedures described correct only for the interelement effect(s) arising from a homogeneous chemical composition of the specimen. Effects related to either particle size, or mineralogical or metallurgical phases in a specimen are not treated.
1.1.2 These procedures apply to both wavelength and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry where the specimen is considered to be infinitely thick, flat, and homogeneous with respect to the depth of penetration of the exciting X rays (1).
1.2 This document is not intended to be a comprehensive treatment of the many different techniques employed to compensate for interelement effects. Consult References (2-5) for descriptions of other commonly used techniques such as standard addition, internal standardization, etc.
