Abstract:
XRD (X Ray powder Diffraction) is an effective analysis method for crystallized materials. This method can identify and reflexes characteristics of asbestos in solid materials clearly based on 3 highest peaks of specific diffraction spectrum from asbestos containing samples. However, asbestos concentration lower than 1% may cause certain biases in analysis. Our study focused on the XRD method for qualitative determination of asbestos in solid material samples in Vietnam environment
