Principles

The Rigaku ZSX Primus IV delivers rapid quantitative determination of major and minor atomic elements, from beryllium (Be) through uranium (U), in a wide variety of sample types (solids, liquids, powders, alloys, and thin films) with minimal standards.

Capabilities

• Analysis of elements from Be to U.
• Tube above optics minimizes contamination issues.
• Micro analysis to analyze samples as small as 500 µm.
• 30μ tube delivers superior light element performance.
• Mapping feature for elemental topography/distribution.
• Helium seal means the optics are always under vacuum.

Applications

• Materials science.
• Petroleum & petrochemicals.
• Cement.
• Coatings.
• Environmental.
• Food & food ingredients.
• Geology & minerals.
• Pharmaceuticals.
• Polymers.
