<p>Soil texture is an essential factor for effective land management in agricultural production. Knowledge of soil texture and particle size at field scale can aid with on-going soil management decisions. Standard soil physical and gravimetric methods for particle size analysis are time-consuming and X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF) provides a rapid and cost-effective alternative. The objective of this study was to explore the use of XRF as a predictor for particle size. An extensive archive of Irish soils with particle size and soil texture data was used to select samples for XRF analysis. Regression and correlation analyses on XRF determined results showed that the relationship between Rb and % clay varied with soil type and was dependent on the parent material. There was a strong relationship (R > 0.62, R<sup>2</sup>>0.30, p<0.05) between Rb and clay for soils originating from bedrock such as limestones and slate. Contrastingly, no significant relationship (R<0.03, R<sup>2</sup>=0.00, p>0.05) exists between Rb and % clay for soils originating from granite and gneiss. Furthermore, there was a significant negative correlation (p<0.05) between Rb and % sand. The XRF is a useful technique for rough screening of particle size distribution in soils originating from certain parent materials. Thus, this may contribute to the rapid prediction of soil texture based on knowledge of the particle size distribution.</p><p> </p>

The antibacterial drug, basic bismuth succinate of the composition Ñ2Í4(ÑÎÎBiO)2 is shown to obtain expediently by the interaction of bismuth oxide α-Bi2O3 with a succinic acid solution. Using the method of electron microscopy the influence of the chemical prehistory of obtaining the precursor, monoclinic modification of α-Bi2O3, on the morphological features of basic bismuth succinate synthesized from it has been investigated. The composition of Ñ2Í4(ÑÎÎBiO)2 was confirmed by the data of X-ray phase and chemical analyses. Based on the data of grain size analysis, the particle size of the obtained samples of basic bismuth succinate was estimated and the conditions for the synthesis of fine-crystalline C2H4(COOBiO)2, which is necessary for medical applications, were selected.

In this paper, mineral phase, elemental composition and size distribution were analysed by means of XRD, XRF and laser particle size analyzer respectively. According to the results of XRD, quartz, illite, calcite and albite were all found in three samples; Dolomite was found only in dustfall; Clinochlore was existed in both PM2.5 and soil. From the results of XRF, elemental compositon of three samples were focused on elemental Na, Si, Al, S, Ca, Fe, Mg, K. Based on the grain size analysis, the size distribution of dustfall mainly ranges from 1µm to 40µm.

SummaryThe Nahan sandstone of the Nainital district is a soft, fine-grained sandstone of subgreywacke type. Like massive igneous rocks it is very well exfoliated and consists of many concentric layers. Petrographic study of different layers of this sandstone, modal analysis, grain size analysis, and size distribution of the various samples, have revealed that physical processes are mainly responsible for exfoliation of the sandstone. The study of various sedimentary parameters indicated that the provenance is from the schistose and granitic rocks of the surrounding Himalayan mountains and the material was deposited in a shallow slowly sinking basin.
