Xrf Analysis of Ceramics, Minerals and Allied

An introduction and guide to the analysis of mineral type materials and products using the fused, cast bead technique. Coverage includes spectrometric parameters and the analytical procedures for a wide range of substances, essential laboratory equipment and its correct use, processes involved in ignition and decomposition loss by fusion and their chemistry.

Harry Bennett and Graham J. Oliver are the authors of XRF Analysis of Ceramics, Minerals and Allied Materials, published by Wiley.
