x-ray fluorescence analysis

XRF is short for X-Ray Fluorescence, which is an analytical technique used by scientists to determine what elements are present in a particular material. And by a lot, I mean metals, rocks, plastics and even parts of living organisms. How it works is quite interesting. The scientists shine special high-energy X-rays onto the material they want to investigate. In simple terms, the X-ray beam strikes upon the material breaking it down and results into generation of its own fluorescence in form of atoms. There is valuable information about the elements in these new X-rays. They then used special tools and equipment to study these secondary X-rays in order to find out more about the material.

X-ray fluorescence analysis as a tool for elemental analysis

Simply put, XRF is now damn near essential for many applications. For instance, XRF is used in computer chips — those tiny devices that power a whole range of electronic gadgets. This ensures that the chips are quality and functional properly in devices. XRF also finds its application to ensure these products do not contain any hazardous material such as Lead, Mercury … which may be harmful for both people and the environment in electronics industry. XRF — Medical Science In medical science, X-Ray fluorescence is a space-age tech aiding the detection of miniscule quantities for harmful entities and substances in drugs where this technology has made numerous contribution to ensure safety side-by-side on elegant solutions. Also in mining, XRF can be used to determine what minerals the land contains; this lets workers know how valuable these resources may be.
