Spectromicroscopy Analysis of Chicken Egg Shells

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chicken egg shells, taken from farm and backyard eggs of different suppliers from different regions in Brazil were collected for chemical/structural analysis, in order to try to find if there is a relation between egg shells composition and the type of production (farm or backyard), the egg shell color and the region of production.

Integrated X‐Ray, Gamma Radiation, and Micro‐CT Techniques for Quantitative Wood Characterization

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The present research integrates microcomputed tomography (micro‐CT), x‐ray fluorescence, and gamma‐ray transmission to quantitatively characterize wood species. A total of 22 samples from seven species were analyzed for density (ρ), linear attenuation coefficient (μ), Compton scattering, micro‐CT gray values (GV), porosity, mass attenuation ...

Sum Peaks in a Total Reflection X‐Ray Fluorescence Spectrum of the Dry Residue of a Solution Sample Containing Ca

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, sum peaks related to the Ca Kα line (3.69 keV) were observed in total reflection X‐ray fluorescence spectra of dry residues of a solution sample containing a large amount of Ca, which were measured with a silicon drift detector. When dry residues containing 1 μg of Ca were measured, a peak that would be the sum peak of the Si Kα

Poly(acrylic acid)-coated iron oxide nanoparticles : quantitative evaluation of the coating properties and applications for the removal of a pollutant dye

, 2012
In this work, 6 to 12 nm iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized and coated with poly(acrylic acid) chains of molecular weight 2100 g/mol. Based on a quantitative evaluation of the dispersions, the bare and coated particles were thoroughly ...

Alteration of X‐Ray Emission Band Spectrum Under Bragg Diffraction

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We use a Zr/Si multilayer presenting a gradient of period to probe the shape of the Si L2,3 emission band (maximum around 92 eV) in and out of Bragg conditions. The sample was prepared by magnetron sputtering and its reflectance measured in the photon energy range of interest with synchrotron radiation.
