Toward Silica‐Free Compliance: A Low‐Viscosity Sample Pretreatment Methodology for Crystalline Quartz Quantification in Viscous Pastes

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crystalline quartz, the most common crystalline silica polymorph, is widely found in industrial products. It is of high regulatory relevance, because its fine fraction, a form of respirable crystalline silica, is classified as an occupational carcinogen, with product‐content thresholds (e.g., 0.1% (w/w) in the European Union) and stringent ...
