Abstract

The analysis of mixtures of phases which produce complicated composite x-ray powder patterns is greatly facilitated by use of our profile fitting method and the technique of applying it is illustrated with a five-compound mixture. Profile fitting gave higher precision in the determination of the reflection angles and Intensities and resolved overlaps in a much shorter time than with other methods. If the reference standards are obtained with the same precision, a smaller error window width can b e used in the search/match procedure.
