L’analyse par diffraction des rayons X est l’une des méthodes les plus utilisées pour identifier les minéraux. Elle est surtout utilisée pour l’identification des minéraux argileux, en raison de leur taille se situant en dessous 0,1 micron. La méthode est basée sur la loi de Bragg utilisant les distances interatomiques de chaque minéral analysé. Le diffractogramme en est la représentation graphique. 3, record 13, French, - diffractom%C3%A9trie%20de%20rayons%20X

Analyse par diffraction X. L’analyse par diffraction des rayons X ou diffractométrie X permet de déterminer les distances interatomiques et l’arrangement des atomes dans les réseaux cristallins. Comme les rayons X sont diffractés de façon différente par les éléments du réseau suivant la construction de ce dernier, l’irradiation de la matière par rayons X permet de connaître sa nature cristallographique. 4, record 13, French, - diffractom%C3%A9trie%20de%20rayons%20X
