Sample preparation: Fusion |
The I series is a full size machine. The Phoenix I uses a modular system of construction so that up to twelve dissolutions can be done simultaneously. The Phoenix is of rugged construction and designed to stand up to the high demands of a modern laboratory.
Samples are dissolved and mixed at temperatures ranging from 300 to 1600 degrees Celsius. (Typical fusion temperature is 1050 degrees Celsius) This is done over oxygen-enriched flames using specially designed burners. The crucibles are cooled in-situ. The crucibles and solidified sample are then removed from the machine and immersed in the acid solution. Crucibles are available in Platinum/Gold or Zirconium.
APPLICATIONS Glass and ceramics industry. Bauxite/Alumina. Mineral sands industry. slag's, mattes sinters etc. The steel industry, analysing iron ores, blast furnace slags and even magnesites. Base metal (Pb, Zn, Cu, Ni) for the analysis of sulphides concentrates, Silicate University's and research organisation. The cement industry, analysing sand, limestone, kiln feed, clinker, milled meal etc.. AFT machines have also been used to successfully fuse Ferro alloy powders.
