A motorised in situ FTIR cell for the materials characterisation at controlled temperature
Characteristics
Motorised
Motorised cell where all the analysis functions are automated: sample’s position, spectra acquisition, configuration of analysis cycles… allowing the analysis of the sample’s surface and the gas phase
Analysis at variable temperatures
Real-time analysis of the surface and the gas phase at variable temperatures.
