Capillary rack with 9 positions that will take standard 1.5 mm diameter capillaries (sample volume 80-200 µL) available from Hilgenberg/Charles Supper. Users are expected to supply their own capillaries for measurements using the capillary rack and the beamline team can supply the contact details of the relevant suppliers. Each capillary position is heated by a peltier element, providing temperature control within temperature ranges for standard measurements in aqueous solution (5-80 °C). Temperature-ramp schemes are programmable in sequence with data acquisition.

Info

Procuring capillaries for use with the Peltier Capillary Rack and Linkam Hotstage:

  • Users are expected to provide their own capillaries for experiments utilising the Peltier capillary rack and the Linkam hotstage.

  • Both the Linkam and Peltier rack accept capillaries up to 1.5 mm outer diameter and typically either glass or quartz capillaries are used.

  • The synchrotron does not accept liability for manufacturing quality of the capillaries. The outer diameter quoted is the nominal outer diameter and standard deviations in outer diameter up to 0.2 mm (max. variance on 1.5 mm OD capillaries = 1.1-1.7 mm) have been measured by the beamline team across multiple batches of 1.5 mm OD capillaries from different suppliers.

  • Capillaries can be procured from the following suppliers:

Linkam Stage

A temperature-controlled stage with a single capillary position that takes standard 1.5 mm diameter capillaries (sample volume 80-200 µL) available from Hilgenberg/Charles Supper. Users are expected to supply their own capillaries. The Linkam Stage provides a wider temperature range, of up to 350 °C, for the measurements of fluid samples. Temperature-ramp schemes are programmable in sequence with data acquisition. The position of the capillary can be moved vertically to the beam during an acquisition sequence, enabling data collection at multiple positions along the sample.

Flowthrough Capillary

For dynamic measurements on evolving systems circulated through a capillary using a peristaltic pump. Sample volumes will need to be on the order of 15-20 mL to ensure sufficient volume for circulation though the capillary. Multiple modes of operation are possible with this sample environment including:
