Multivariate versus traditional quantitative phase analysis of X-ray powder diffraction and fluorescence data of mixtures showing preferred orientation and microabsorption

Abstract: In materials and earth science, but also in chemistry, pharmaceutics and engineering, the quantification of elements and crystal phases in solid samples is often essential for a full characterization of materials. The most frequently used techniques for this purpose are X-ray fluorescence (XRF) for elemental analysis and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) for phase analysis. In both methods, relations between signal and quantity do exist but they are expressed in terms of complex equations including many paramete… Show more

“…The main advantage is using the same "mathematical engine", i.e., PCA, to analyze both XRPD and imaging data. The raw data were thus subjected to PCA analysis to extract the trends in time dependent data sets, 30 obtaining quantitative estimates as a function of time (and thus temperatures) of the present phases 31 in both data sets (details of data analysis are given in the Experimental Section). To be able to perform PCA analysis on images they are transformed in advance from 2-D objects to 1-D arrays of color values and are organized in a matrix with one image per row.…”

“…The setup can collect simultaneous imaging and XRPD data, and PCA can analyze blindly both XRPD and imaging data from both solid and liquid phases, with PCA scores being the reaction coordinate of the investigated transformation for each data set. PCA proved to be a powerful tool to efficiently extract information from large amounts of data, being also able to be performed, complementarily to traditional approaches, to extract structural, phase composition and kinetic information, to highlight trends and track and correlate changes occurring during in situ experiments based on different techniques ranging from diffraction to spectroscopy. Applying PCA to in situ XRPD and imaging data during crystallization and melting allows one to obtain a profile by measuring the solid/liquid ratio on the complementary fields of structural and morphological viewpoints. A phase transition can thus be analyzed like a traditional DSC but probing structural and morphological information by differential scanning diffraction (DSD) and imaging (DSI) respectively instead of energy.…”
