Specamill
The Specamill grinding accessory is designed to
mix a solid sample with an excess of KBr powder
for the preparation of powder samples prior to
compression into KBr pellets for IR study. It can
also be used in preparing samples for diffuse
reflectance spectroscopy. The target particle size
of the sample is at least 0.025mm (if not smaller)
to coincide with the wavelength of light in the
classical Mid IR region. Final particle size will
depend specifically on the actual sample and the
mixture proportions and the amount of time
being applied for the grinding process.
There are two capsule sets that can be used
within the Specamill grinding accessory P/N
GS06000. One capsule set P/N GS06200 is an
agate capsule set and the other P/N 6100 is a
stainless steel capsule set. Each set consists of a
capsule body, stopper and three grinding balls
fabricated in the agate or stainless steel.
The reason for use of either set is principally due
to the difference in hardness of material. Agate,
being a naturally occurring mineral is typically
between 6 and 7 on the Mohs scale of hardness.
Steel, depending on its fabrication and chemical
make up, can vary from between 5 to 8.5 on the
same Mohs scale of hardness. The Specac
stainless steel capsule set is typically of a Mohs
hardness of 7.5.
The capacity of each capsule is 3ml and the
recommended filling volume is 30% (excluding
spheres).
