    two trials in parallel.
    7.2 sample preparation
    7.2.1 melting method
    7.2.1.1 burn loss measurement
    with clean porcelain crucible (see 5.10), burned at 1050 degrees C to constant weight, cooling standby. A dry sample of about 2g (accurate to 0.1 mg) is described, placed in a constant-weight porcelain crucible (see 5.10), then placed in a Maffer furnace (see 5.7), burned to constant at 1050 degrees C, cooled to room temperature, placed in a dryer (see 5.9), and burned for test samples. Sample burn-loss (LOI) is expressed as a mass score (%) and is calculated in formula (1):

    m0 - dry sample quality in grams
    (g);
    calibration oxides such as titanium dioxide, silica, aluminum trioxide and iron trioxide (see 4.1) have a burn loss value and do not require this procedure.
    7.2.1.2 Preparation of standard samples
    calibration oxides such as titanium dioxide, silica, aluminum trioxide and iron trioxide (see 4.1) to prepare standard samples in an appropriate proportion. When drawing standard curves using standard samples, each chemical composition should have sufficient content range and a certain gradient.
    In platinum-gold palladium (see 5.3), the standard sample, waterless lithium tyborbonate (see 4.2), accurate to 0.1 mg, sample melt ratio of 1:20, mixed evenly after adding 2 to 3 drops of lithium bromide de-molding agent (see 4.3), put into the melting machine (see 5.5), heat up to 1050 degrees C, until fully melted, then poured into the platinum-gold mold (see 5.4) and cooled to room temperature to make a glass melt with smooth surface, no obvious cracks and other defects, stored in the dryer (see 5.9) to prevent moisture absorption and contamination. When measuring, only the edges of the sample can be taken to avoid contamination of the X-ray measuring surface.
    : The sample melt ratio can also be adjusted according to the actual situation.
    such as titanium dioxide, silica, aluminum trioxide, iron trioxide and other calibration oxides (see 4.1) have a burn loss value, the actual sample amount can be obtained by conversion.
    the preparation of the test sample
    test sample is consistent with the preparation of the standard sample (see 7.2.1.2).
    7.2.2 Pressure Plate Method
    7.2.2.1 Preparation of standard samples
    calibration oxides such as titanium dioxide, silica, aluminum trioxide, iron trioxide (see 4.1) are used to prepare standard samples in an appropriate proportion. When drawing standard curves using standard samples, each chemical composition should have sufficient content range and a certain gradient.
    the standard samples using the melting method (see 7.2.1.2).
    can also be used to prepare standard samples of the pressure chip legal system. It is said that the standard sample of about 4g preparation is put in the mold, with boric acid powder (see 4.4) trim mat bottom, pressurized to 10MPa in the powder sampler (see 5.6), maintain 5s, reduce pressure to remove, put in the dryer (see 5.9) to save, to prevent moisture absorption and pollution. The standard samples made should have smooth surfaces and no obvious cracks and other defects. When measuring, only the edges of the sample can be taken to avoid contamination of the X-ray measuring surface.
    : The production pressure and hold time can also be adjusted according to the actual situation.

    The preparation steps for test samples are consistent with the method of preparing standard samples for press-chip legal systems (see 7.2.2.1).
    7.3 X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy
    7.3.1 measurement conditions
    set the appropriate X-ray tube voltage, current, input the measurement parameters of each analysis element and the content of the oxides in the standard sample. Since the test parameters depend on the instrument used, the general parameters of X-ray fluorescence spectral analysis cannot be given, and the parameters listed in Appendix A have been shown to be appropriate for the test.
    7.3.2 Background Correction
    the background is measured at the baseline near the feature line as a sample background deduction. The peak X-ray intensity of the feature line is calculated as the net strength of the analytical line after deducting the background X-ray intensity.
    7.3.3 calibration curve
    the spectral strength of each of the measured elements in the standard sample series. The measured X-ray intensity is corrected by the background (see 7.3.2) to establish a calibration curve between the corresponding content of each specific oxide. The basic α between elements is corrected by theoretically correcting the coefficient.
    the calibration curve established by the melt, which is used for the content test of the tablet sample, the dilution of the sample by the melt is taken into account and the conversion is required.
    : If there are elements of spectral overlap interference, spectral overlap interference correction is also required when measuring the content of other types of oxides by reference to this standard.
    of the calibration curve at 7.3.3.1
    is determined using another standard sample that is not involved in the calibration curve. The relative deviation between the measured value and the theoretical value of each specific oxide content should be less than the corresponding repetition limit, confirm that the calibration curve is valid, otherwise it is not valid and should be re-made.
    7.3.3.2 Drift Correction
    Select a suitable sample with known specific oxide content, with good uniformity and stability, prepare samples with melting chip legal system, as drift correction samples to correct the instrument regularly, can be corrected by single or two points, correction time interval, according to the stability of the instrument and the analysis of the environment.
    7.3.4 sample test
    the sample to be tested under the same test conditions as the test standard sample, the X-ray intensity of the test sample should be within the range of the calibration curve. Based on the calibration curve (see 7.3.3), calculate the content of the element oxide i in the test sample Ci.
