HIGH-PRESSURE SAPPHIRE TUBES AND CELLS

HIGH-PRESSURE SAPPHIRE TUBES AND CELLS

Single crystal sapphire tubes and cells for high pressure spectroscopic methods.

 

Key properties

  • 100% gas tightness, no pores
  • Resistance to high temperatures up to 2000°C
  • Resistance to high pressures - up to 500 bar
  • Resistance to most aggressive chemicals
  • Purity 99,995%
  • Non-magnetic

 

High pressure resistance

Sapphire capillary can operate at much higher pressures than ordinary quartz capillary.

  • x-ray diffraction (XRD)

 

Typical design of flanged high pressure NMR tubes

Sapphire NMR cells with a flange are designed to adapt into a vacuum fitting such as this. Fitting is not provided with the tube.

High-pressure sapphire tubes can also be connected to a supplied flange or connector with epoxy adhesive

 

Standard flanged sapphire tube designs provided are as follows:
