X-ray diffractometer APD 2000 (XRPD)

X-ray diffractometer APD 2000  (ItalStructures Novara, Italy)

Diffractometer is designed to be the best solution for phase and structural analysis of powder samples.

It's a powerful tool for powder diffraction applications such as routinary qualitative and quantitative phase analysis, non-ambient analysis, structure solution and refinement, crystallite size and degree of crystallinity calculation. 

  • High Speed Rate (1000°/min) 
  • High Precision Angle Reproducibility (+/- 0.0001°) 
  • Fast Measurement and Highly Reliable Data 
  • Extremely precise angular values thanks to stepper motors with optical encoders 
  • Easy to handle
