Event Overview:
During this webcast we will outline the technological evolution of energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (ED-XRF) spectrometers, their comparison to more costly WD-XRF devices (as well as to lower-end ED-XRF models), and the current advantages users worldwide find in the best ED-XRF analyzers. These advantages include major benefits in sensitivity and precision, cycle time and throughput, ease of use, compactness, and cost of ownership. We will also discuss how a high-performance ED-XRF spectrometer provides high-quality measurement of most elements in the periodic table, from uranium (U) to fluorine (F), so that it can offer effective solutions for a wide array of both routine and challenging real-world analytical applications.
Key Learning Objectives:
- New advances made in ED-XRF technology and their benefits.
- How the performance of cost-effective ED-XRF can compare with WD-XRF
- Typical applications that can be done by XRF.
- Performance capabilities of a high-performance ED-XRF spectrometer
