X'Pert3 Powder Dedication to X-ray powder diffraction

X-ray diffraction Advancing materials research From geological exploration, through processing and on The design and processing of materials require an efficient to the development of entirely new functions, materials balance of useful properties such as strength, ductility, must have the appropriate physical properties for effective reactivity, corrosion resistance, ion mobility, heat resistance,

Investigating structural properties Many physical properties are dependent upon the crystalline phases of the material. Structure-property relationships require an investigation of the chemistry, sizes and distributions of the phases. Establishing how the phases alter during processing and use is necessary at all stages of materials design. Beta-filter Soller slits Line detector Divergence slit Soller slits Anti-scatter slit X-ray powder diffraction directly probes the crystallographic structure of the material and the changes of this structure. A powder diffraction measurement yields...

X'Pert3 Powder The proven ^0^°^ diffraction p|atform

With a history of almost 20 years, over 2500 user sites and year-on-year improvements, the X’Pert platform has become the world’s most popular and reliable X-ray powder diffraction instrument. With many innovations adopted from the high-end Empyrean platform, the X’Pert3 Powder is ready for the future. X’Pert customers have been using their systems for many years (often even 24/7), praising its reliability, robustness and low running cost. With CRISP* technology, the X’Pert3 Powder is taken to a new level of performance and longevity. EASY EXTENSION Research programs change and materials...

X-ray diffraction scans of powders can be analyzed using Highscore (Plus) software. Different crystallographic phases can be identified and quantified and crystallite size and strain can be analyzed. HighScore is compatible with a number of reference databases including ICDD, PAN-ICSD and open source databases such as the Crystallography Open Database. This enables access to 100,000 - 500,000 reference patterns.

Microdiffraction on very small spots For the investigation of small samples or small regions on larger samples various microdiffraction optics are available. As an example, a diffraction pattern of a paint flake is shown on the right. Transmission powder diffraction Organic materials, such as pharmaceuticals, are typically transparent for X-rays and show peaks at low angles. For these materials the X’Pert3 Powder diffractometer can easily be converted to transmission geometry setup for superior low-angle performance. The data set on the left was recorded on a crystallized lysozyme (a...

Characterizing structure at the nanoscale SAXS measurements are made at very small angles using a Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is one of the most versatile techniques for the structural characterization of nanomaterials. Measurements are sensitive to the transmission geometry which can be easily configured on the X’Pert3 Powder. The EasySAXS software contains a complete toolbox for SAXS data analysis and options for automation and reporting. size and shape distributions of nanoscale particles. SAXS requires only minimal sample preparation. Gdiff Gobs Gcalc Many complex materials,...

Your partner in component manufacture Important parameters for quality control during manufacturing processes are the total composition of phases in the material and the residual stresses. Because crystallographic structures act as an atomic-scale strain gauge, X-ray diffraction offers a fast and nondestructive measure of residual Stress measurements with the X’Pert3 Powder can be done with the same line focus configuration as used for phase analysis. An X-ray mirror can be used, which is beneficial when measuring curved samples. PANalytical Stress and Stress Plus software offer a powerful...
