XRF能量色散荧光光谱测金仪在贵金属黄金成分测试的优势有哪些?以及黄金K值概念
由于需求增加,金属价格尤其是黄金价格一直在加速上涨。以黄金为例,由于需求旺盛,伴随着高价,珠宝市场充斥着黄铜和薄层镀金铜制品,这些产品声称是金器,实则是赝品。同样,物品的元素(例如类似于黄金的贵金属)的百分比可能高于实际情况。物品(例如珠宝)或其他物品可以出售给例如买家,例如在消费者出售个人珠宝物品以换取现金的情况下。在交易过程中,买家可能不得不在不允许详细分析的环境中对物品进行非常快速的估计。一个常见的情况是,例如,对于购买看起来像纯金或纯金合金的物品(例如珠宝)的黄金买家,当实际购买的物品是简单的镀金金属或具有较低百分比的黄金比表达的黄金。这会给买家带来很大的损失。
贵金属检测仪是一种采用能量散射X射线荧光分析技术(XRF)的智能无损检测仪器,可准确检测金、铂、钯、K金、K铂等首饰中各种元素的含量。EXF系列贵金属检测仪采用多通道分析仪,同时应用光谱解析技术,能够准确、生动地显示金、铂、钯、银、铑、铜、锌、镍等的光谱形式及其比例。
贵金属探测器的分析方法是由具有一定能量分辨率的X射线探测器同时探测样品发出的各种能量特征X射线。探测器输出信号幅度与接收到的X射线能量成正比,利用能谱仪分析探测器输出信号的能量大小和强度,对样品进行定量和定性分析

什么是黄金的K值(Karat)?
黄金的重量以金衡盎司为单位(1金衡盎司=31.1034768克),纯度以“K”(K)表示。K金的“K”是外来词“Karat”的编制,完整的表示:Karatgold(K金),“AU”或“G”是用来表示黄金纯度的符号(即,金量)。
“K纯度”衡量黄金和其他金属合金中金的纯度。24K表示纯金,不混入其他金属。较低的K值意味着较少的黄金;18K金含有75%的金,25%是其他金属,通常是铜或银。
各国对于一个物体应该被称为金块的最小K值有不同的要求。在美国,10K是黄金纯度的法定可接受标准,14K是常见的。在法国、英国、奥地利、葡萄牙和爱尔兰,9K是被允许称为黄金的低纯度。在丹麦和希腊,8K是法定的低标准。
