Abstract

The importance of surface roughness to the measurement of integrated intensity in X-ray powder diffraction is discussed following studies conducted with materials in both powder and bulk (rolled sheet/billet) forms possessing different absorption characteristics. A simple procedure is described which allows for surface roughness effect.
