Quantitative XRD Analysis of Cement Clinker by the Multiphase Rietveld Method
摘要
Quantitative phase analysis of Portland cement clinker samples was performed using an adaptation of the Rietveld method.The Rietveld quantitative analysis program,originally in Fortran 77 code,was significantly modified in visual basic code with windows 9X graph-user interface,which is free from the constraint of direct utilizable memory 640 k,and can be conveniently operated under the windows environment.The Rietveld quantitative method provides numerous advantages over conventional XRD quantitative method,especially in the intensity anomalies and superposition problems.Examples of its use are given with the results from other methods.It is concluded that,at present,the Rietveld method is the most suitable one for quantitative phase analysis of Portland cement clinker.
