Powder X-ray diffractometers
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 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.
Bruker D8 ADVANCE Powder Diffractometer with SSD160 detector
Accessories
High Temperature Strip Heater Chamber HTK 16N
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. Film samples can also be analyzed. Studies at different temperatures (room temperature to 1600ºC) can be performed.
