BRUKER D8 ADVANCE POWDER DIFFRACTOMETER WITH LINXEYE-XE DETECTOR |
Main Characteristics
Bragg Brentano geometry, using Cu radiation and secondary monochromator Trademark Bruker D8 ADVANCE Powder Diffractometer Applications Structural characterization studies on powders (such as zeolites, mixed metal oxides, organic, coordination and organometallic compounds, active pharmaceutical compounds), with emphasis on phase characterization and identification, phase transition and polymorphism studies. It can be used with a capillary stage for sensitive samples, for samples with high interference of preferred orientations and for samples for which crystal structure determination is intended. Film samples can be analyzed using either Brag-Brentano or grazing incidence.

A contribution (to be defined) to the regular expenses, associated with the utilization of the equipment, is expected from the users. Requests have to be done in a request form and different polices are applied: if the collaboration involve co-authorship no payment is involved; if it is done in service basis it depends on the data required and also if the users are from other Universities or from Companies. |
