Description

It created the FP mathematical analysis model in order to use EDXRF technique to analyze element contents without sample and gained the key parameters of the model such as mass-absorption coefficients and excitation factors. In experiment, two kinds of pseudobinary system containing Fe-Cu and Fe-Ti were analyzed with an energy dispersive X-ray analyzer based on a SDD and each element's content of the samples were calculated via the FP calculation procedure, the deviation of the accuracy is no more than 0.8% and the lowest relative error between calculated value and actual value is 2%. The result shows the FP method can overcome the absorption and enhancement effects between elements and apply to SDD-EDXRF analysis process well with no sample. (authors)
