7 Common Basics
Vacuum and inert gas atmosphere
Measurements in air at high temperatures ⇒ Reaction with oxygen
⇒ Use vacuum or inert gas atmosphere
8 Common Basics
Pumping Systems
9 Common Basics
Crucible Materials
The selection of a proper crucible material is essential for every high-
temperature measurement!
Criteria:
thermal stability ♦ reactivity with the sample ♦ thermal conductivity
♦ permeability for gases ♦ thermal shock resistance
