DIFFRACplus TOPAS, software pro profilovou a strukturní analýzu práškových difrakčních dat

Abstract

This bachelor thesis focuses on familiarization with the software DIFFRAC.SUITE TOPAS, which is an effective X-ray diffraction tool used to carry out qualitative and quantitative analyses of chemical mixtures. Within familiarization with the software, analyses of uranium ore and a kaolinite/ZnO sample were carried out. Phases of both mixtures were identified in the analyses. A tutorial enclosed with the software was used in the process of analyses. This tutorial was also translated and rewritten into the Czech language. The analysis showed mass fraction values of 50.37% and 49.17% for the kaolinite/ZnO sample. In the case of uranium ore sample, the mass fraction value of uraninite (the main uranium ore) was 0.30%.
