Crucibles serve as containers for samples during thermoanalytical measurements. They guarantee that the sensor is not contaminated by the measurement. The type of crucible used for a DSC or TGA measurement can have a large effect on the quality of the results obtained, and in addition, also influences important characteristics of the measuring cell (e.g. resolution and sensitivity). Considering the relevant factors before the measurement can often help to save time later on when interpreting the curve.

The wide range of crucibles and accessories ensure that you always can choose the right crucible for a particular application.

  •  aluminum crucibles from 20 µL to 160 µL
  •  platinum crucibles from 20 µL to 160 µL
  •  alumina crucibles from 30 µL to 900 µL
  •  gold and gold plated crucibles with 40 µL
  •  medium and high pressure crucibles from 25 µL to 500 µL
  •  PCA and glass crucibles
  •  copper crucibles
  • special lids, seals and other helpful accessories

Choosing the right Thermal  Analysis Crucible guarantees the best results

  • Large volume – increases the sensitivity
  • Low mass – pushes the resolution to the limit
  • Purity – no interaction of the sample with the crucible
  • Material – guarantees high thermal conductivity and form stability
  • Flatness – ensures perfect thermal contact and no artifacts

 

Extremely wide crucible range

  • Aluminum crucibles – from 40 to 160 µL
  • Aluminum crucibles light – 20 µL volume for shortest signal time constant
  • Copper crucibles – for OIT measurements
  • Platinum Crucibles – from 30 to 150 µL
  • Gold Crucibles – pure Gold or aluminum gold plated
  • Medium Pressure Crucibles – up to 2 MPa
  • High Pressure Crucibles – from 25 to 500 µL and up to 22 MPa
  • Sapphire-like Crucibles – chemical resistant and inert
  • Alumina Crucibles – from 150 to 900 µL
  • Glass Crucibles

Aluminum Crucibles for Thermal Analysis

Alumina Crucibles for Thermal Analysis

Sapphire (PCA) Crucibles for Thermal Analysis

Platinum Crucibles for Thermal Analysis

Precisely machined aluminum crucibles with strong and flat crucible bases guarantee excellent thermal contact between the crucible and the sensor and ensure low temperature gradients.
Reusable alumina (aluminum oxide) crucibles of various volumes are available for TGA measurements up to 1600 °C.
PCA, or polycrystalline alumina oxide, is a material with properties similar to sapphire. Thanks to its structure, PCA is very tight, chemically resistant, and inert.
Platinum crucibles are mainly used for TGA measurements up to 1600 °C. It is the preferred crucible for Cp determination at high temperatures.

Gold Crucibles for Thermal Analysis

Glass Crucibles for Thermal Analysis

High Pressure Crucibles for Thermal Analysis

Copper Crucibles for Thermal Analysis

Compared with standard DSC aluminum crucibles, sealed gold or gold plated crucibles are far more chemically inert.
Glass is an inert material and can be hermetically sealed.
The High Pressure DSC crucibles withstand pressures of up to 15 MPa. Steel and gold-plated crucibles are frequently used in safety investigations.
Copper pans are almost exclusively used for the determination of oxidation induction times (OIT). Copper exerts a catalytic effect.
