Summary of Test Method3.1 The X-ray fluorescence spectrometer is initially cali-brated by the following procedure. For each element, the slopeand intercept of the cali

19、bration curve are determined byregressing concentration data and intensities measured on a setof physical standards. Empirical alphas can also be determinedby regression when the appropriate set of physical standards isused for calibration. Theoretical alphas, calculated with specialsoftware, can al

20、so be used. In addition, a combination oftheoretical and empirical alphas can be used.3.2 Asample is placed in the X-ray beam, and the intensitiesof the appropriate fluorescence lines are measured. A similarmeasurement is made at a wavelength offset from eachfluorescence line in order to obtain a ba

21、ckground correction.Enhancement or absorption of the X-ray fluorescence of ananalyte by an interfering element in the sample can occur, andthese effects can be handled in the data reduction by imple-mentation of alphas. Concentrations of the analytes are deter-mined by comparison of net signals agai

22、nst calibration curves,which include influence coefficients (that is, alphas) calculatedfrom theory, empirical data, or a combination of theory andempirical data.4. Significance and Use4.1 Lubricating oils can be formulated with additives, whichcan act as detergents, anti-oxidants, anti-wear agents,

23、 and soforth. Some additives can contain one or more of calcium,copper, magnesium, phosphorus, sulfur, and zinc. This testmethod can be used to determine if the oils, additives, andadditive packages meet specification with respect to content ofthese elements.4.2 This test method can also be used to

24、determine iflubricating oils, additives, and additive packages meet specifi-cation with respect to chlorine concentration. In this context,specification can refer to contamination.4.3 This test method is not intended for use on samples thatcontain some component that significantly interferes with th

25、eanalysis of the elements specified in the scope.4.4 This test method can complement other test methods forlube oils and additives, including Test Methods D 4628,D 4927, D 4951, and D 5185.5. Interferences5.1 The additive elements can affect the magnitudes of themeasured intensities for each analyte

26、. In general, theX-radiation emitted by each analyte can be absorbed by theother elements.Also, the X-radiation emitted by an analyte canbe enhanced by some other component. The magnitudes of theabsorption and enhancement effects can be significant. How-ever, implementation of accurately determined

27、alphas in the setof calibration parameters can satisfactorily correct for absorp-tion and enhancement effects, thereby making this test methodquantitative.5.2 Molybdenum lines can spectrally overlap lines of mag-nesium, phosphorus, sulfur, and chlorine. Lead lines canspectrally overlap sulfur. Thus,

28、 this test method cannot beapplied if molybdenum or lead are present at significantconcentrations and if accurate overlap corrections cannot bemade.5.3 When a large d-spacing diffraction structure containingsilicon is used as the analyzing crystal, corrections for thefluorescence of silicon may be n

29、eeded. Calcium X rays fromsample specimens cause silicon to fluoresce. This siliconradiation contributes to fluctuations in the background formagnesium measurements. If the effect is significant, thisinterference may be treated as a line overlap due to calcium.6. Apparatus6.1 X-ray Spectrometer, equ

Foroptimum sensitivity, the spectrometer is equipped with thefollowing:6.1.1 X-ray Tube Source, with chromium, rhodium, orscandium target. Scandium can be advantageous for sensitivityenhancement of the low atomic number

31、analytes. Other targetsmay also be employed. Avoid spectral interferences from tubelines on the analyte lines.6.1.2 Helium, purgeable optical path.6.1.3 Interchangeable Analyzer Crystals, germanium,lithium fluoride (LiF200), graphite, pentaerythritol (PE), or a 50angstrom diffraction structure, or a

39、ble oil-soluble standardmaterials are prepared from sulfonates and therefore containsulfur. To use these materials for preparation of the calibrationstandard blends, it is necessary to know their sulfur concen-trations. Test Method D 1552, or other appropriate methods,can be used to determine sulfur

Preparati

43、on of Calibration Standards9.1 Prepare calibration standard blends by accurate dilutionof the oil-soluble standard solutions with the dilution solvent.These blends (Practice D 4307), with accurately known analyteconcentrations, shall approximate the nominal values listed inTable 1.9.1.1 When empiric

44、al alphas are determined by regression,prepare and measure all standard blends listed in Table 1.9.1.2 When theoretical alphas are used, a subset of thestandard blends (for example, standards 2, 6, 8, and 10) can besatisfactory.9.2 Drift Correction Monitors (Optional)The use of driftcorrection monit

45、ors for determination and correction of instru-ment drift can be advantageous. Monitors are stable, solid disksor pellets containing all elements covered by this test method.Two disks are preferred to correct for both sensitivity and baseline drifts. The high-concentration drift monitor provideshigh

46、-count rates, so that for each analyte, counting error is lessthan 0.25 % relative. The low-concentration drift monitorprovides low-count rates, so that for each element, count rate issimilar to that obtained with the calibration blank, or zeromass % standard.10. Calibration10.1 For the Ka-spectral

47、line for each analyte, assemble achannel per operating instructions of the X-ray instrument.Suggested, approximate instrument settings are listed in Table5. Actual settings can be instrument dependent; hence, theinformation in Table 5 is for guidance only.10.2 For correct operation of the X-ray inst
