A note on the analysis of nickel in the nickel complex with the help of x-ray fluorescence

In this paper, X-ray fluorescence analysis of nickel in two samples of the nickel complex have been carried out on PW-1410 X-ray fluorescent spectrometer. A series of synthetic standards were prepared to a limiting matrix-similarity and were ground to the same mesh as that of the samples. The accuracy of the results obtained has been verified by the conventional wet technique. It is found that the values of the nickel content obtained by the X-ray fluorescence is within the limit of 0.5% to that of the values obtained by the wet chemical method. (Dr. S.C.
