The greatest challenge to material characterization by XRF technique is encountered in direct trace analysis of complex matrices. We exploited partial least squares (PLS) in conjunction with energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence and scattering (EDXRFS) spectrometry to rapidly (200 s) analyze lubricating oils. The PLS-EDXRFS method affords non-invasive quality assurance (QA) analysis of complex matrix liquids as it gave optimistic results for both heavy- and low-Z metal additives. Scatter peaks may further be used for QA characterization via the light elements.
X射线荧光(XRF)技术在材料表征方面面临的最大挑战在于复杂基体的直接痕量分析。我们利用偏最小二乘法(PLS)结合能量色散X射线荧光与散射(EDXRFS)光谱法,快速(200秒)分析润滑油。PLS - EDXRFS方法能够对复杂基体液体进行非侵入式质量保证(QA)分析,因为它对重元素和低原子序数(低Z)金属添加剂都给出了理想结果。散射峰还可通过轻元素用于QA表征。
