When conducting powder XRD (X-ray diffraction) analysis, the amount of sample you need can vary based on several factors.
How much sample required for powder XRD analysis? 5 Key Points to Consider
1. Method of Sample Preparation
The amount of sample required often depends on how you prepare the sample.
2. Specific Analysis Requirements
Different analyses may have unique requirements that influence the sample quantity.
3. Loose Powder Analysis
For loose powder analysis, it's common to use about 15 grams of sample.
4. Ensuring Infinite Thickness
Using 15 grams helps achieve an "infinite thickness" for all elements of interest, which is crucial for accurate analysis.
5. Homogeneity and Minimal Void Spaces
A sufficient amount of sample ensures homogeneity and minimizes void spaces, leading to reliable results.
