_atom_analytical_mass_loss.percent
Name:_atom_analytical_mass_loss.percent
Definition:
Mass lost by the specimen during specimen preparation expressed
as a percentage. The temperature at which the mass loss was recorded
is given by _atom_analytical_mass_loss.temperature. A mass gain
is represented by a negative value.
This data name would be used to record mass loss on drying, or mass
loss on ignition, during, for example, fusion bead preparation for
X-ray fluorescence analysis.
Examples:| 12.5 | Represents a mass loss of 12.5 wt% upon exposure of the specimen to the temperature given in _atom_analytical_mass_loss.temperature. |
| -7.2 | Represents a mass gain of 7.2 wt% upon exposure of the specimen to the temperature given in _atom_analytical_mass_loss.temperature. |
