title: [X-ray fluorescence analysis of Kaolin concentrate].
abstract: An X-ray fluorescence technique was developed for the analysis of Al2O3, SiO2 and impurities in Kaolin concentrate. Two standard series, one for dual series of Al2O3-SiO2 and the other for all of the impurities, were prepared, respectively, from spectral pure agents based on the estimates of analyte content ranges and matrix effects in Kaolin concentrate. Powderd sample after determination of loss of ignition was pressed into disc by means of a little powderd sample preparation method modyfied in this paper. All analyte contents were calculated directly from the calibration curves without any matrix correction. In contrast to fusion technique the method has no the effects of flux impurities and dilute ration on the determination of minor and micro components in Kaolin concentrate. Errors of the results are < 1% for major component Al2O3, SiO2 and total, and < 5% for most and < 10% for few of the impurities.
