Multi-element Reference Materials for XRF (and Filter Orientation) Nicole Hyslop, Krystyna Trzepla, and Sinan Yatkin Crocker Nuclear Laboratory University of California, Davis Presented at Cape Romain, SC October 15, 2014

Multi-element (ME) XRF Reference Filters Quickly evaluate instrument performance for multiple elements Assess spectral interferences between elements Limited multi-element reference filters for XRF – NIST Standard Reference Material (SRM) created with dust collected from HVAC system Does not contain all the elements of interest Only some elements are certified, others are qualitative only ICPMS uses multi-element standard solutions – Using these solutions in the aerosol chamber to create reference filters for the XRF instruments 2
