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.
