ICP-OES and SEM-EDX analysis of metal fibers

Composition of metal fiber is important because it influences the mechanical, chemical and physical properties of the materials. Metal fibers are present in clothing but also in different composites used for manufacturing concrete, strings, airplanes, spacecrafts and other items. In this work results of direct analysis of solid samples by scanning electron microscope with an energy dispersive X-ray analysis system (SEM-EDX) and the results obtained by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) after the solid samples dissolution in acidic solutions are presented. ICP-OES offered lower LOD and better precision, while SEM-EDX provided important information about the sample layer compositions.
