Non-ambient XRPD
Particle Analytical is offers XRD with a variable temperature and humidity . The method allows analysis of x-ray diffraction patterns from the sample subjected to controlled temperature and humidity.
Get explicit confirmation of the phenomena seen upon heating of your sample since the unique fingerprint spectra are collected at each condition.
