X-ray fluorescence

30、 measurements are made on this disc.Calibration is carried out using synthetic standards prepared from pure chemicals using a two-point regression. Matrix corrections may be employed but, because of the low levels at which the analytes are present in the Al2O3matrix, will have negligible effect with

31、in the scope of the method.Intensity measurements are corrected for spectrometer drift.A certified reference material, (see Annex E) is used to verify the calibration.4 Reagents and materials4.1 Flux, mixture of 12 parts lithium tetraborate to 22 parts lithium metaborate, pre-fused.This flux is avai

32、lable commercially. Flux will absorb atmospheric moisture when exposed to air. Minimize water uptake by storing flux in an airtight container.See Annex F for comments on flux purity.4.2 Aluminium oxide (Al2O3), high purity, nominally 99,999 % Al2O3.Prepared by heating to 1 200 C 25 C for 2 h and coo

33、ling in a desiccator.To ensure the high purity Al2O3is not contaminated with analyte elements, analyse it before use by preparing a disc made from the aluminium oxide (referred to as a “blank disc”) and measuring net intensities for each analyte element.The method for the measurement of blank discs

34、is given in 7.4.5. If a number of differently sourced high purity aluminium oxides are tested select the one with the lowest countrates for impurities for use in calibration and blank discs.
