Sample Preparation and Methodology for X-Ray Quantitative Analysis of Thin Aerosol Layers Deposited on Glass Fiber and Membrane Filters

Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to summarize the theoretical basis and experimental techniques for application of the referenee intensity method to quantitative, multi-component analysis by x-ray diffraction (XRD). Detailed descriptions of the technique and formal error analysis are discussed by Davis (1978, 1980, 1981a, 1981b, 1981c).
