Reliability of Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence Analysis of Low-Alloy Steels

Abstract

The reliability of energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence data for the analysis of low-alloy steels is reported for chromium, manganese, nickel, and molybdenum. The accuracy and precision of the analysis were evaluated for two mathematical models, linear and multiple regression, using twelve NBS standard reference samples. Data on results are furnished.
