Polycarbonate foils with thicknesses from 0.08 to 2.5 mm containing Ti, Cr, Fe and Ba were analysed by energy-dispersive x-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometry. Neutron activation analysis (NAA) was used to validate the EDXRF results. The element concentrations ranged for Ti from 0.04 to 0.75%, for

Anthropogenic activities have contaminated stream sediments around the world with toxic metals. In Portugal, the Ave river basin, draining to the northwestern Portuguese shelf, is heavily contaminated. The Ave river course and its tributaries are located in one of the most populated regions of the c
Energy-dispersive x-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometry was used for the analysis of silicate rocks using pressed powder pellets. It is observed that with this low-cost, simple and fast technique, trace elements such as V, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, Pb, Th, Rb, Sr, U, Y, Zr and Nb can be determined a
Fluvial sediments, including the NBS SRM-1645 Standard River Sediment, were fused in lithium tetraborate to form glass discs on which determinations of 16 elements (K, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr and Pb) were obtained simultaneously at a single set of x-ray conditions by ene
