Requirements for the sample

For standard measurements we require dry, pulverizable, crystalline solids. The pestling of the sample is performed locally by us. Routinely the measurement is conducted in a capillary at room temperature. Please note that iron-containing samples (X-ray fluorescence!) are measured only in justified exceptional cases.

Please discuss all measurement requests that deviate from these standard requirements and conditions (e.g. suspension, high/low-temperature measurement, ...) previously with us.
