The energy loss function (ELF) is required in the calculation of SP and IMFP. We used the electron energy losses from 0 to 80 eV obtained by quantitative analysis of reflection electron energy-loss spectroscopy (REELS) spectra. The values of SP and IMFP for high contents of ZrO 2 (x=50% and x=75%) in Zr-silicates are similar to those of ZrO 2 , and similar to those of SiO 2 for low contents of ZrO 2 (x=25%) in Zr-silicates. There are small differences in the values of SP and IMFP for ZrO 2 and SiO 2 .We found that the SP decreases while the IMFP increases with increasing electron energy. We have demonstrated that the ELF obtained from the quantitative analysis of REELS spectra provide us with a straightforward way to determine SP and IMFP for alloy materials by using modified Born-Ochkur equations.
