Abstract
A method is described for the x-ray fluorescence analysis of small samples, taken from museum objects, to determine alloy composition. The samples are dissolved in an appropriate reagent and absorbed on cellulose powder. The resulting powder is formed into a film of less than critical thickness and the effective absorption of the sample for the characteristic wavelength of the element being measured is determined. The effective absorption coefficient is used to correct the observed intensities in order to obtain quantitative results.
