Abstract
The application of X-ray diffraction (XRD) technology in analyzing high-temperature sintered products can provide detailed crystallographic information and phase analysis. By preparing scanned samples, the X-ray beam interacts with the sample to produce diffraction patterns, which can be used to determine crystal structure, lattice parameters, and relative crystal orientation. Through X-ray diffraction analysis, we can understand key parameters of crystals in high-temperature sintered products, such as relative abundance, particle size, and morphology. X-ray diffraction technology has significant value in the quantitative analysis of cement-based materials. Using this technology, we can accurately quantify substances such as cement clinker, gypsum, and mineral admixtures, gaining insight into their composition, structure, and properties, thus providing strong technical support for cement production and application.
