The use of X-ray fluorescence analysis using the fundamental parameters (FP) method without the need for calibration samples is extremely desirable for some applications. The accuracy of element concentration calculations performed using the FP method with the XRS-FP software package is analyzed. The possibility of performing X-ray fluorescence analysis without the need for reference samples renders this software package indispensable for the analysis of unknown samples.
