Unique Measurement Capabilities Using the Praying Mantis and a Cary UV-Vis system
Agilent Technologies: Unique Measurement Capabilities Using the Praying Mantis and a Cary UV-Vis system
Examining powdered samples in the presence of a reactive gas or at elevated temperatures could be a difficult measurement to make.
During this workshop, we will be looking at how to make such diffuse reflection measurements using a high-end Cary instrument and an accessory from Harrick Scientific known as the Praying Mantis. Tips and tricks of using this accessory will also be discussed.
