SPEX 3644-150

Specially formulated UltraBind® powder with a particle size of less than 20µm. 150g bottle. Combines the moisture resistance of Paraffin Binder along with the ease of removing a prepared disk from the die set associated with the Cellulose Binder. UltraBind may include low levels of NaCl. Will bond 200 to 250 disks or provide matrix for 25 to 35 supported-sample disks.

Prepare samples for reproducible and contamination-free results

Select binders from powder, tablet, or liquid form depending on your application

High-quality sample preparation is the key to achieving consistent and reliable analytical results. Powders are ideal for samples that crumble or ablate after pressing. They blend quickly and completely with samples to form XRF (x-ray fluorescence) sample disks. Tablets are an efficient way to add binder to XRF sample disks. Liquid easily mixes with the sample.

Features

• Ideal for samples which crumble or ablate after pressing.
• Blends quickly and completely with samples at 10 to 25% by weight to form XRF sample disks.
• Can be used undiluted as a sample matrix with the sleeve-and-plunger technique.
• Self lubricating and will not stick to the pellet die.
• Does not cake in the bottle during storage.
• Moisture resistant and resists cracking and swelling in storage and does not contaminate samples.
• Bonds 200 to 250 sample disks or provides matrix for 25 to 35 supported sample disks.
• Forms air-stable sample disks as the waxy binder seals the surface against moisture.
