XRF

XRF stands for Xray flu-orescence and describes a non-destructive analytical technique in chemistry used to determine the elemental composition of materials. To determine the chemistry of a sample, the so-called XRF analyzers measure the secondary X-ray that is being emitted from a sample when excited by a primary X-ray source. XRF spectroscopy represents an excellent technology for quantitative and qualitative analysis of the material composition as each of the elements in a sample produces a »fingerprint«, e.g. a set of characteristic fluorescent X-rays unique for a specific element. In the field of mining, exploration, and metal recycling, XRF is used to quickly identify and recover viable resources. It enables an accurate determination of the grade of precious metals and helps to prevent deleterious metals from entering the recycling process.
