Fluorescent X-ray analysis is a method that involves irradiating a sample with X-rays generated from an X-ray tube and analyzing the fluorescent X-rays emitted by the sample. The energy of the fluorescent X-rays emitted from the sample has energy values unique to each element, allowing for qualitative analysis to determine what elements are present in the sample by measuring the fluorescent X-rays. Additionally, quantitative analysis can also be performed by comparing the intensities of the fluorescent X-ray spectrum.

Concrete structures face issues such as a decrease in strength when chloride ions penetrate the concrete due to airborne salt and the application of de-icing agents. Therefore, it is important to regularly examine the amount of chloride ions in the concrete. Traditionally, the potentiometric titration method has been widely used, but it has problems such as high analysis costs and time consumption. The fluorescent X-ray analysis method is now gaining attention because it allows for the high-sensitivity and simple measurement of chloride content in concrete on-site.
