Calculation Tutorial:

Method1: In this method, you need to take 2 samples. First sample which crystalinity need to be calculated i.e. unknown sample. Second sample should be the same material but with known crystalinity (you can buy known crystalinity sample). Now you need to perform the XRD for both unknown and known sample with same parameters.

STEP1: Enter the total area of sample which crystalinity need to be calculated i.e. unknown crystalinity sample (Area can be obtained from Originlab or any other analysis software).

STEP2: Enter the total area of known crystalinity sample.

STEP3: Enter the percent crystalinity of the known sample.

Method 2 This method is less accurate. In this you need to take the area of crystalline peaks (usually sharp and high intensity peaks) by leaving the amorphous peaks (usually broad and low intensity peaks).

STEP1: Enter the area of all crystaline peaks.

STEP2: Enter the total area of full two theta range.
