Re: [sdpd] Percentage crystallinity calculation using Powder XRD

[Luca Lutterotti <Luca.Lutterotti...@ing.unitn.it>]

If you need to do the analysis without internal standard and no  
calibration curve you may look at:
http://www.ing.unitn.it/~luttero/Publications/EPDIC_V/ 
silicate_glass.html
reference:
Lutterotti et al., Mat. Sci. Forum, 1998, 278, 87-92.

Depends on the amorphous type it may work for you. Programs for the  
method: Maud or Rietquan, but with some effort it works also with other  
Rietveld programs.
