This X-ray fluorescence microscope allows non-destructive qualitative and quantitative elemental analysis and mapping of solid samples, using the EDX technique. Compared with SEM/EDX, Orbis PC Micro-EDXRF offers a much higher sensitivity for many elements. It provides powerful analytical capabilities in a variety of analytical applications, such as materials, geology, non-destructive testing, process control, and criminal forensics, to name a few. This instrument can be applied to analyzing clay types and impurities in clays in oil sands without requiring solids digestion.
