What Does EDXRF Stand For?

EDXRF stands for Energy Dispersive X Ray Fluorescence

EDXRF, or Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence, is an analytical technique used for determining the elemental composition of materials. It involves the excitation of atoms within a sample through X-ray radiation, resulting in the emission of characteristic fluorescent X-rays. The energy and intensity of these emitted X-rays are measured to identify and quantify the elements present in the sample. EDXRF is widely employed in various fields, including environmental science, materials analysis, archaeology, and quality control, due to its non-destructive nature and ability to analyze solid, liquid, and powdered samples.
