Extract

Repetitions of the round robin test on powder diffractometer sensitivity and round robin test of intensity measurements, using two almost identical groups of participants, enabled a comparison to be made of results obtained in different tests. Two forms of corundum test samples were used: (i) sintered plates in tests A8 and A9, and (ii) powder samples in test Bl . A rough comparison of the influence of different methods of specimen preparation from the powder material in different laboratories in test Bl is thus possible with respect to the (almost) uniform sintered plates used in tests A8 and A9. The parameters under investigation were the line positions (and/or inter-planar d-spacing) and intensities of eleven reflections occurring at the 20 angles ranging from 25° to 136° for Cu Kα-radiation
