An X-ray powder diffraction quantitative analysis has been developed to determine the relative amounts of the principal crystalline phases (α-Li2SiO3,α-Li2Si2O5and theα-cristobalite form of SiO2) contained in selected Li2O–SiO2glass-ceramics. The analysis was extended to estimate the amorphous-to-crystalline content ratio of individual samples. The method utilized is an external-standard intensity ratio technique that employs cristobalite, a component common to each sample, for a standard.

The use of the full powder diffraction trace over a selected diffraction range for quantitative analysis has advantages over using single peaks in that it compensates for the effects of peak overlap and low levels of preferred orientation. Using a data base composed of experimental and calculated traces, the phase composition of an unknown may be determined by determining the least-squares best-fit sum of the appropriate data base patterns to the pattern of the unknown. Weight fractions are calculated from the pattern weighting factors using the reference-intensity-ratio method.

Quantitative analysis by x-ray powder diffraction methods has become increasingly important in recent years with the availability of computer-controlled automatic powder diffractometers. All data gathering techniques require suitable reference standards to scale the measured data properly. One means of achieving this scaling is through the reference Intensity ratio which is defined as the intensity ratio of the strongest diffraction maximum of a substance to the strongest maximum of a reference material in a 1:1 mixture “by weight. These ratios may he measured or they may he calculated if the crystal structures of the materials are accurately known.

AbstractQuantitative estimates were made by visually matching computer-simulated with experimental X-ray powder diffractometer patterns for two samples. One was a natural mixture of dickite and nacrite in about equal proportions. The second sample contained mostly quartz with corundum and mullite in small (0.5–1%) amounts. Percentages deduced from pattern matching agreed to within ±10% of the weight fractions of the components determined by an alternative method of analysis.
