Analysis of Single Synthetic Fibers Using a Portable Total Reflection X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometer

摘要

In this study, single synthetic fibers obtained from several textile products were analyzed by a portable total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectrometer. Characteristic elements, which would originate from such materials as catalysts, delustering agents, and dyes used for manufacturing synthetic fibers, were detected from single synthetic fiber samples, and the difference in the types of characteristic elements among the single synthetic fiber samples was observed.
