Set of 4 crucibles with lids. Alumina (aluminum oxide) crucibles are normally used for TGA measurements, especially when the TG signal is more important than the SDTA signal. These crucibles can be reused after cleaning.
A 900 μL TGA crucible up to 1600 °C The best solution for large volume samples and TGA instruments equipped with large furnace up to 1600 °C.
Excellent Thermal Conductivity The perfectly flat base with excellent thermal conductivity allows these crucibles to also be used for DSC measurements.
Alumina crucibles can be reused After the measurement, the alumina crucibles can be regenerated. Often they are mechanically cleaned, then rinsed in solution before drying.
No sample change prior to measurement The alumina crucibles can be used in combination with special Al lids. They prevent sample changes during the waiting period before the measurement. This is of high relevance for samples that can take up water or samples that evaporate content.
Regeneration of alumina crucibles After mechanical cleaning store, if needed, in water (or even in 10% hydrochloric acid). Oxides may form which can then be removed by rinsing. After drying, heat the crucibles to red hot to ensure that no weight loss occurs when they are used.
Several metals are critical Al2O3 has the tendency to form spinels with Fe2+, Ni2+, Cu2+ and others, particularly at temperatures above 1000 °C. In addition, the melt of these metals dissolve Al2O3.
