Abstract

New advances in the growth of research methodologies to evaluate various tools are crucial, so as to create the best evaluation possible about whether a paint residue seized at a crime scene arises from a tool detected. Standard analytical techniques are not used to evaluate the red tools when it comes to the prospective use of X-ray navigators. In this study, the trace amounts of strontium and barium revealed by XRD, the main mineral filler, namely strontium sulphate and barium sulphate, a statistical approach was used, and it can diagnose some forensic tool paint during a home invasion. This work is the best example among others of XRD for enhanced characterisation of tool paints in an effective method.
