PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Product Overview

Universal XRD Sample Holder is designed for powders, particles, slurries, films, and sheet specimens. The well shape, well depth, and body dimensions can be selected according to the sample volume and testing method.

Transparent glass makes the loading condition easy to inspect, while the flat surface helps control sample height and reduce measurement deviations caused by uneven loading.

Key Selection Factors

Confirm the dimensions accepted by the instrument before selecting the well opening and depth. For powder samples, keep the sample surface level with the instrument reference plane.

For sealing, holes, special body shapes, or ultra-shallow wells, provide a dimensional drawing before ordering.

Flat and Transparent Easy inspection of loading condition and sample coverage.
Broad Size Range Options range from micro wells to 100 × 100 mm bodies.
Customizable Well shape, depth, dimensions, holes, and seals can be adapted.
MATERIAL & FEATURES

Materials and Product Features

Material: Optical Glass

The sample holder is manufactured from optical glass with a flat, transparent surface for inspecting sample coverage, loading uniformity, and residue inside the well.

It is suitable for routine XRD analysis of solid, powder, particle, film, and sheet specimens.

Reference Technical Parameters

Typical Glass Body: 50 × 35 × 2 mm

Reference Sealing Shield: Φ35 mm

Common Wells: 10 × 10 × 0.5, 15 × 15 × 0.5 and 20 × 20 × 0.5 mm

Body dimensions, well shape, well depth, and shield design vary by model.

Stable Support Supports solid and powder samples at a consistent height.
Sealing and Isolation Helps reduce sample scattering and environmental exposure.
Flexible Configurations Square, round, shallow, deep, and perforated designs.
Easy Inspection Direct inspection of sample coverage and cleanliness.
Data Repeatability Standardized loading supports repeatable measurements.
Research Ready Suitable for phase analysis and structural research.
Sealed models may support experimental setups involving oxygen or another protective gas. Actual sealing performance depends on the shield, sealing tape, assembly method, and test duration. Do not treat the holder as a pressure-rated or vacuum-rated chamber.

USAGE GUIDE

Instructions

CONFIRM FIT

Check the dimensions

Confirm that the holder fits the instrument tray and does not alter the required measurement height.

CLEAN AND DRY

Remove dust and residue

Use lint-free wipes and a compatible cleaning method. Dry completely before loading.

LOAD AND LEVEL

Keep the surface level

Add the sample gradually and avoid voids, raised areas, or tilted surfaces.

POSITION AND TEST

Secure the holder

Confirm that the sample surface is level and centered before starting the measurement.

Important: Glass edges and ultra-thin structures may be fragile. Avoid point loading, drops, and overtightening. The holder is not designed for vacuum, heating, or pressure applications.
CUSTOMIZATION

Customization

Recommended Dimensional Information

Provide body length, width or diameter, total thickness, well shape, opening dimensions, well depth, well-center position, and any required holes.

Information to Confirm

Specify the target instrument, tray constraints, sample form, expected loading volume, tolerances, and required sealing or edge-treatment details.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I choose between a square and round well?

Either shape can be used for powders. Square wells efficiently use the available area, while round wells are suitable for circular locating features or disc-shaped samples.

Is a deeper well always better?

No. Well depth should match the sample volume and measurement requirements. Excessive depth increases sample consumption.

Which samples are suitable for sealed holders?

Sealed holders are suitable for samples that scatter easily, require protective covering, or need reduced environmental exposure.

Can sealed holders be evacuated or heated?

No. These glass holders are not designed for vacuum, heating, or pressure applications.

Why does sample height affect the result?

A sample surface offset from the reference plane changes the measurement geometry and may introduce peak-position deviations.

Can the glass holder be reused?

Yes. Remove residue after use and inspect the holder for cracks, chips, contamination, or remaining sample material.

Can it be customized to an existing instrument tray?

Yes. Provide the tray dimensions, locating features, permitted thickness, well position, and critical tolerances.
