Abstract A convenient modification of the so‐called self‐consistent calibration method results in a simple, flexible, coherent procedure for complete analysis of any multicomponent system by means of fusion methods. With low dilution techniques, the influence coefficients obtained allow accurate analysis around a typical standard composition, i.e. within restricted concentration ranges, as often occurs in industrial applications. Resorting to higher dilution rates allows one to extend validity ranges at will, according to one's purpose, but at the cost of a lower sensitivity.
