In this study, the mass attenuation coefficients of some
potassium compounds (KH₂PO₄, KNO₃, K₂S₂O₈,
KOH, K₂HPO₄, K₂SO₄, KCl, KIO_3,
and KI) have been
measured by using Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometer (EDXRFS)
and a high-resolution Si(Li) detector. Obtained experimental mass attenuation
coefficients have been compared with WinXCom and FFAST theoretical values.
