X-Ray Fluorescence Analysis of Modified Cottons
1964
Tripp, Verne W. | Piccolo, Biagio | Mitcham, Donald | O'Connor, Robert T.
The application of x-ray emission techniques to the qualitative and quantitative elemental analysis of chemically and additively modified cotton textiles has been investi gated. Sample preparation and calibration techniques which appear to be suitable for the analysis of textile materials have been devised. The method has been applied to a variety of samples containing some 20 individual elements. The technique is useful for identifying the elements present in fabrics finished with poorly defined agents. It has been applicable to problems involving the add-on and subsequent loss of fungicidal agents containing such elements as Cd, Zn, Se, Cl, S, and P. Typical results obtained with a number of modified cottons are given.
