This course provides an introduction to Powder X-ray Diffraction (PXRD), aimed at complete beginners. The course is also ideal for analysts or technicians looking for a refresher in these techniques.

X-ray crystallography is a powerful non-destructive technique for determining the molecular structure of a crystal. X-ray crystallography uses the principles of X-ray diffraction to analyze the sample ...

X-ray diffraction (XRD) is a technique in which the diffraction of X-rays by a sample of interest is analyzed. When used as a basic technique (X-ray powder diffraction), it can determine the ...

Particle size analysis is crucial to quality control and product development in a number of key industries including aerosols, construction, food and beverage, paint and coatings, and pharmaceuticals.

X-ray diffraction methods lie at the foundation of materials science. Determination of the crystal structures of natural minerals and, later, of crystals grown in the laboratory led to our ...
