I have been requested to analyze catalytic converters PGM's by XRF.
There are standards available?
Can I make my own standards? Perhaps impregnating the ground converter with synthetic PGM solution then drying it?
This is the spectrum I got with LiF 200 crystal from 10º to 100º, you can see the Pd and Rh peaks but without the standards I cannot quantify it.
The Au peaks are spectral impurities from the tube.
The converter was ground to 200 mesh and pressed with wax at 200 kN.
