XRF Practical and Easy


This course focuses on the practical use of XRF but also gives an insight in the theoretical aspect of the method. It is suited for both beginners in XRF and experts that want to expand their knowledge in XRF and XRF sample preparation.


    



What you will learn:

This course is separated into two parts. The first part is dealing with the theory and basic principles of XRF. Instrument technology (comparison WDXRF and EDXRF), application development , calibrations and more are described here. In the second part, the focus lies on the practical use of XRF and the sample preparation . It explains parameters and effects like the particle size effects that influence the analytical result and shows different kinds of preparation techniques with their advantages and disadvantages. 



What you will get:

• unlimited access to this course

• this course as a digital reference book for XRF questions

• access to the questions and answers forum for further assistance

• a certificate for successfully completing the course



Requirements:
This course is suitable for beginners of XRF and therefore there are no requirements. Basic understanding of chemistry is recommended.
