Ask an Expert: Scoring higher with advanced XRD analysis software
Join the next Ask an Expert webinar to find out how to get the most out of our HighScore software package
Over the course of a single football match, it’s estimated that referees have to make around 245 decisions. That’s one decision every 22 seconds! With so much to think about in such a short space of time, the risk of making mistakes is high – and these errors can directly impact the results of a game. When Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technology was introduced into the European leagues in 2018, everything changed. Suddenly, key decisions in a match weren’t left to a split-second interpretation – gameplay could be displayed, reviewed, and analyzed, to help the referee make fairer and more accurate decisions.
And there are plenty of other areas where a thorough analysis of your data is key to getting accurate results! In the pharmaceutical industry, for example, it is essential to detect and quantify impurities to ensure safe medicines that are fit for use. In the mining industry too, it is important to quantify crystalline phases in a mixture to optimize grade quality for various rocks and ore. For these industries, and for the identification and quantification of solid forms, X-ray diffraction (XRD) is considered the gold standard method. But no matter how good your XRD analysis is, its outcome hinges on the interpretation of your results.
Introducing HighScore: the ultimate XRD analysis software
That’s where we can help! Whether you’re looking to improve your process control or enhance your research and development process, understanding your materials starts with understanding your powder diffraction pattern. HighScore is a complete software package for phase identification, semi-quantitative analysis, pattern treatment, profile fitting – and more. With a range of supporting functions to display, manipulate, and evaluate your diffraction data, HighScore makes data interpretation quicker and simpler than ever. What’s more, this software integrates tasks within one easy-to-use interface and allows simultaneous use of multiple reference databases.
