QUANTITATIVE PHASE ANALYSIS IN TEXTURED MATERIALS.

Abstract

The problem of preferred orientation was considered in quantitative phase analysis by X-ray diffraction techniques. The average intensity of a diffraction peak can be obtained by integration over the whole pole figure, or by random rotation of the specimen in the X-ray beam, or by a combination of both. For rod or wire, where the pole figure shows rotational symmetry, the intensity is measured along a radius of the pole figure. Where no symmetry is present, rotational symmetry is imparted by rapid rotation of the sheet around its surface normal during measurement. These methods are applied to the determination of austenite in an Fe-31 percent nickel rod and Fe-28 percent nickel sheet. (Author)
