Auxiliary equipment:
|
|
Planetary Mono "Pulverisette 6", Fritsch - Germany. Used for batch fine grinding up to the colloidal state of hard and soft materials as dry and suspensions. Mixing and homogenizing of emulsions and pastes.
|
|
Microwave Digestion System "Speedwave4", Berghof - Germany. The system reduces the sample preparation time due to the high temperature and pressure of the reaction mixture which is achieved in the field of microwave radiation. Tightness of autoclaves prevents evaporation of hazardous substances into the laboratory and to minimize the loss of volatile components of the analyte, which are inevitable in the case of classical digestion.

|
Acid purification system "BSB-939-IR", Berghof - Germany. Designed for distillation acids.
