“…The resolution was 137.5 eV at Mn–K α and the dead time was near 30%. The software for spectrum retraction and analysis was VISION32, supplied with the instrument, and 13 pieces of ceramic standard samples provided by the Shanghai Institute of Ceramics of the Chinese Academy of Science (SICCAS), which were usually employed for determinations on the ancient ceramic materials, including the body and the high‐temperature glaze (Wu et al ; Wen et al ), were used for quantitative analysis as well. The analytical procedures used for this study have been recorded in a previous study (Zhu et al ) and the results for the elements Na, Mg, Al, Si, K, Ca, Ti, Fe, Co, Mn, Cu, Ni, Rb, Sr, Y and Zr are listed in Tables below.…”
