Abstract:Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) is one of the primary techniques used to characterize solid state materials. But there is not a sample holder which can be fit into the sample carrier of the Bruker D8-Advance x-ray powder diffractometer for flakiness and block samples test. In this article, we will design, manufacture and evaluate a sample holder for flakiness and block samples. Materials of the holder are steel, glass and plasticine etc. The holder is low cost, easy to be processed, convenience to prepare the s… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
