WDXRF

Name (abbreviation) of the procedure: Wave length dispersive X-Ray fluorescence (WDXRF)

Generic term of the process: XRF

Physical Principle: Excitation of inner electron shells to generate characteristic X-Ray radiation via X-Ray fluorescence

Scope: Bulk method. Uses X-Ray fluorescence  (WDXRF) to analyze main and minor compounds, typically starting from Na. Lighter elements (except for H, He) are possible but the detection limit is comparable high (X000 µg/g). Li can only be measured with special spectrometers.
