Extract

Interest in the reference intensity ratio CRIR) method continues as a result of the potential capabilities of the technique for rapid multi-component quantitative analysis. The theoretical basis for the RIR technique is now well established (Chung, 1974; Hubbard et al., 1976; Davis, 1980, 1981; Davis and Johnson, 1982), Major areas for which the method can still be greatly improved include the methods used for sample preparation, the measurement of accurate intensities, and the use of an internally consistent set of reference intensity constants (designated RIR, or ki). In the methodology developed at the Institute of Atmospheric Sciences (IAS), South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, sample preparation centers about the suspension of the pulverized sample into an aerosol and collection onto filter media. Because of this step, intensities must be corrected from their raw values to intensities representative of “infinite thickness“ and volumetrically constant conditions of normal sample diffraction. The measurement and correction of intensities and sample preparation methodology is the subject matter of the present paper.
