High Efficiency Standard Crucibles

The utilize of the non-wetting alloys Gold-Platinum and Gold-Rhodium-Platinum for the sample preparation of glass beads for X-ray fluorescence analysis is ordinary practice across the steel, cement, glass and ceramic industries. The 5% Gold-Platinum alloy is generally used but where extra strength is requisite the 3% Gold-10% Rhodium-8% Platinum combination is employed. Over the years a number of standard design of crucibles, lids and casting moulds have been developed which are suitable for various automatic machines for glass bead preparation.
