During the last few years rapid   developments have been made in X-ray diffraction and X-ray fluorescence as an analytical technique. The technology has now become a very essential part of research and industry. Moreover these techniques can be applied to assure the quality control process of many industrial and commercial products.  PANalytical in collaboration with KFUPM are pleased to announce these new developments and techniques in a regional workshop covering the most recent analytical advancements in Oil, Polymer, Cement, Pharmaceutical, Metallurgical, Mineralogical and Sample Preparation. Highly specialized and eminent speakers will give case studies covering many industrial topics.
