The trough plate is ideal when samples mustbe cleaned from the crystal with some type of aqueous ororganic solvent.Trough plate HATR crystal plate – ideal for liquids, powders, pastes and gelsFTIR spectrum of coating on inner wall of food container by HATR withZnSe flat plate and pressure clampHATR with Heated Trough Plate – foreground shows HeatedFlow-Through CellTypically, only a thin layer of the sample needs to be appliedonto the crystal surface. For fast evaporating samples, a volatilescover should be used to cover the sampling area.Soft powders will often produce good spectra when analyzedby HATR, assuming that they can be put in intimate contact withthe crystal. A powder press option is used to achieve this. Thisdevice is placed directly on top of the sample filled trough andpressed by hand until the desired result is obtained.All resistively heated HATR plates are controlled by <strong>PIKE</strong>temperature controllers in digital or digital PC versions. Theselection of the digital PC version includes <strong>PIKE</strong> TempPRO software,which provides a graphical user interface for temperature controland kinetic measurements.Flat plate HATR crystal plate – ideal for solids, polymer films and coatingsThe flat plate is used for the analysis of solid materials –including polymer and film samples. It is ideal for solid sampleswhich are too large to fit within the trough plate configuration.The crystal is mounted slightly above the surface of the metalplate, which helps to achieve good crystal/sample contact whenthe flat plate press is used (the press attaches easily to the back ofthe HATR with two thumb screws).The ZnSe and Ge 45° flat plates are available in a sealedversion, which is ideal for sampling of oils and other types oflow surface tension liquids.<strong>PIKE</strong> TempPRO Software for kinetic experiments with our ResistivelyHeated Crystal Plates18
