For the sample in the test, there was no oxygen in the certification. In general, you have a couple options on how to handle oxygen. (1) If we had an upgraded detector in our XRF, we could detect it directly. (2) If you look at 04:03, you'll see "Compound List." If you choose a compound list, the software will take whatever elements it finds and convert it to whatever compound is in the list (these lists can be edited in the Epsilon software). For example, if you choose a particular compound list that specifies that any result of Fe is really Fe2O3, then the software will recalculate the results to tell you how much Fe2O3 is present. This can be a bit tricky though because the assumption is that Fe exists ONLY as Fe2O3. If you also have elemental Fe or Fe in another compound, the reported Fe2O3 amount will be incorrect. I hope this helps explain things!
Thank you very much for answering. I'm learning to use an Epsilon device and it is still hard for me to know if the results it gives me are normalized or if they require some additional step. I'm analyzing rock samples, so i have an idea of the composition which allows me to choose the elements.
Very detailed video explanation, thanks!
Thank you for the compliment!
Thank you for your efforts if you make a video about downloading and installing a program CES .
My pleasure! I'm not sure I know what program CES is though.
Can you tell anytime about XRF software algorithm & it’s mathematical calculations
Where I can learn these things
nice video... please can you clarify how to convert cps to percentage or ppm or specific concentration ? thanks
Sir,please give a video for create an application and how to calibration done on epsilon 1 for Known sample with different grade
Excellent video! Although I have a question, how does oxygen balance in the results that the equipment provided?
