EVALUATION OF INTERELEMENT EFFECTS OF Ag Cu Ti TERNARY SYSTEM BY X-RAY FLUORESCENCE TECHNIQUE

The interelement effects of Ag-Cu-Ti Ternary system was studied by x-ray fluorescence to obtain the concentration of each element accurately. Ternary compacted of high pure metals of Ag- Cu-Ti as a green pellets were prepared. Wavelength dispersive technique was used to measure the fluorescent intensities of ternary system at the same operation condition. The intensities of the ternary elements in the spectrum were non-linearly related to concentration of each element due to the absorption and enhancement effects. Ag absorbs x-ray fluorescence of Ti more than Cu. Binary influence coefficients were obtained from the values of relative intensities to calculate the elemental concentration of ternary system using BB (Bettie - Berssey) algorithm.
