Addressing concerns about data quality, space, throughput and user experience More research institutions are moving towards a central Laboratory model of shared analytical equipment. It encourages optimal usage of the technologies, building of expertise in techniques and ensuring the upkeep of better laboratory practices. X-ray diffraction (XRD) is a paramount technique for any material science research project. Therefore, the selection of a correct diffractometer model, suitable for the task, often comes to the top of the priority list, when designing a new laboratory. As an Application Specialist at Malvern Panalytical, we often ...
