The chemical industry delivers a huge amount of different products. Many of them are used in our daily life, others are designed for highly sophisticated technical applications.
Therefore also XRF is used in many applications where salt or metals have to be analyzed, for example. In all cases XRF shows the advantages of an easy-to-use, non destructive and precise technology.
Paints and pigments (titanium dioxide and lead chromate for road paint, e.g.), pharmaceuticals, copier toner (Si and Fe, e.g), photographic films and plates (Ag and Br, e.g.), plating (Gold, Platinum, Rhodium, Iridium, Titanium, Chromium, Chromate, Nickel, Sn-Pb Solder) are only few examples.
Fire retardants not only for industrial applications but also for clothes for fire brigades belong to the application as well as for analytics in food or tobacco industry, iron in glass industry, coatings for aluminium cans, etc. Last but not least XRF plays an important role in the petrochemical industry.
