Humidity Control for X-Ray Diffraction1

James U. Anderson, Associate Professor of Soils

Department of Agronomy, New Mexico Agr. Exp. Sta., University Park, N. Mex.

ABSTRACT

The humidity of the atmosphere surrounding samples in the X-ray diffractometer should be controlled because clay minerals lose or gain water to obtain equilibrium, with resultant changes in basal spacings. A simple apparatus achieves this by supplying air at any desired relative humidity.
