Component analysis and x-ray standardless quantitative analysis

Are you struggling with how challenging it is to perform traditional quantitative analysis of solid form content in a solid sample? Issues such as weighing errors, mixing errors, and lack of homogeneity can impact the accuracy of the standards used for calibration and lead to reference materials that are not representative of the unknown samples being analyzed. In many cases the ‘standard reference samples’ are the largest source of error in a traditional quantitative method.

In this webinar we will investigate X-ray diffraction solutions that can help you:

  1. A standardless quantitative approach that is both representative and relevant to the materials being studied.
  2. Utilizing reference powder patterns of known components to determine the relative concentrations in the sample.
  3. Extracting reference components from mixture samples that are representative of the unknown samples.

Rigaku Americas Corporation | Texas, USA

Simon Bates is V.P. of Science and Technology at Rigaku Americas Corp., where he nurtures collaborative relationships between industry partners and academia in the discovery of new technologies and methodologies for the next generation analytical systems. His fascination with materials science and analytics has led Dr. Bates on an interesting career path. Having received his Ph.D. from the University of Hull for his neutron diffraction studies on the magnetic properties of rare earth materials, Dr. Bates completed his postdoctoral work at the University of Edinburgh where he first started to design and build specialized high resolution X-ray diffraction system for materials characterization. He continued working on X-ray analytical systems and software design throughout his career at Philips, Shimadzu (Kratos), Bede Scientific, and Rigaku. However, before joining Rigaku, Dr. Bates explored a different career direction and spent 17 years working in pharmaceutical contract research at SSCI and then Triclinic Labs., where he expanded his toolkit for materials analysis to embrace thermal methods and IR/Raman spectroscopy while experimenting in organic chemistry and molecular modeling. Dr. Bates has continued his relationship with academia, volunteering as an Adjunct Professor at Purdue University, University of Hawaii Hilo and more recently at the University of Long Island.
