XRD-based quantitative analysis of clay minerals using reference intensity ratios, mineral intensity factors, Rietveld, and full pattern summation methods: A critical review

The quantification of clay minerals is essential for the evaluation of clay-rich rock and soil, but it remains challenging due to the unique structures and various element compositions of clay minerals. In this article, several quantification methods for clay minerals sourced from X-ray diffraction...
