XRD-based quantitative analysis of clay minerals using reference intensity ratios, mineral intensity factors, Rietveld, and full pattern summation methods: A critical review
Open accessAbstract
The quantification of clay minerals is essential for the evaluation of clay-rich rock and soil, but it remains challenging due to the unique structures and various element compositions of clay minerals. In this article, several quantification methods for clay minerals sourced from X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, mainly recommending the reference intensity ratio (RIR), mineral intensity factor (MIF), Rietveld, and full pattern summation methods are reviewed. Principles and applications of these methods are focused upon in addition to related differences in the analysis of clay minerals (i.e., sample preparation, the selection of characteristic reflections for quantification and standards added during analysis). This critical review also provides a proposal for selection of an adaptive XRD quantification method to be applied to various clay-rich samples.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
