GNRModel AreX L -X-Ray Diffractometer

SHARE

Complete automated instrument to determine Retained Austenite. Unique and outstanding instrument able to measure in an automated way Retained Austenite in compliance with ASTM E 975 -03. Accurate  measurement of the retained austenite levels is important in the development and control of heat treatment process in steel industry. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) is considered the most accurate method available that can accurately determine retained austenite levels down to 0.5%. The integrated intensities of the austenite (220) and (311), and the ferrite (200) and (211) diffraction peaks are measured on the AreX diffractometer. The use of multiple diffraction peaks minimizes the effects of preferred orientation and allows interference from carbides to be detected.
