Quantitative Phase Analysis of Fly Ashes from Six Polish Power Stations

Article Preview

Abstract:

Application of the Rietveld method to quantitative phase analysis of fly ashes from Polish power stations is presented. The calculations of the fractions of crystalline components as well as non crystalline constituents have been done using SIROQUANT TM software. The power of the Rietveld refinement is shown when very small contents of minerals are detected and quantified.
