Portable X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) is a method of positive material identification (PMI) which is a non-destructive semi-quantitative method that determines the chemical composition of a material.
XRF is ideally suited for very fast qualitative elemental analysis. Typically all elements from sodium through to uranium can be detected simultaneously.
Simple, fast and safe sample preparation without chemical waste.
Non-destructive analytical technique.
Low cost of ownership.
Analysis at the production site (at-line).
No need for daily re-calibration.
