X-ray diffraction (XRD) is a commonly used technique for corrosion product analysis. It is the only technique for this type of analysis and it also generates data regarding solid materials' phase composition. For instance, a combination of goethite, ferrihydrite and magnetite can be quantified… View Full Term
