Scope

5.1 This procedure is suitable for manufacturing control and for verifying that the product meets specifications. It provides rapid, multi-element determinations with sufficient accuracy to assure product quality. The analytical performance data included may be used as a benchmark to determine if similar X-ray spectrometers provide equivalent precision and accuracy, or if the performance of a particular spectrometer has changed.

1.1 This test method covers the analysis of Ni-base alloys by wavelength dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry for the determination of the following elements:

Element	Composition Range
Manganese	0.068201;% to 1.68201;%
Phosphorus	0.0088201;% to 0.0158201;%
Silicon	0.08 % to 0.68201;%
Chromium	1.68201;% to 228201;%
Nickel	238201;% to 778201;%
Aluminum	0.208201;% to 1.38201;%
Molybdenum	0.038201;% to 108201;%
Copper	0.0078201;% to 2.58201;%
Titanium	0.118201;% to 3.08201;%
Niobium	0.558201;% to 5.38201;%
Iron	0.178201;% to 468201;%
Tungsten	0.068201;% to 0.508201;%
Cobalt	0.048201;% to 0.358201;%
