High-temperature furnace for INEL CPS 120

A heat-treatment device has been developed in order to analyse the dynamics of structural transformation of powdered materials. This furnace is able to reach 1123 K, with a low-temperature gradient along the quartz capillary and is designed to work on a curved INEL CPS 120 detector with a classical X-ray generator (molybdenum tube). The device permits the collection of a set of recordings at different temperatures during a short period of time for moderately diffractive materials.
