APPLICATION NOTE 22/2019

Borate fusion of "platinum poisons" - Automatic coating of the crucible with a protective layer

Elements which cause detrimental effects to platinum are commonly designated "platinum poisons". For the Bead One HF and HAG-HF, an automatic protection layer prior to oxidization and fusion can coat and shelter the inner walls. The method increases occupational safety since the operator is no longer exposed to hot and hazardous liquids. Furthermore, reliability and reproducibilty of the process are improved by automatic preparation. Ultimately, no special training is needed for the operation and the peronnel's workforce is relased for more efficient and responsible tasks.
