Mark tubes and accessories

Mark tubes are used for X-ray structural analysis of monocrystals, powder preparations and liquid crystals. With these extremely thin-walled capillaries it is possible to analyse smallest samples gas and moisture tightly sealed. Their extremely thin walls of only approximately 10 µm makes them particularly suitable for high-precision measuring.

With the large funnel at the upper rim even smallest samples can easily be filled into tubes of smallest diameters.

Mark tubes are available in different glass qualities with different linear absorption coefficients, so there is a suitable tube for nearly every kind of application at hand.

Our production quality standards are very high; production can be adapted to the special needs of our customers.

For working with temperature-, moisture- and air-sensitive crystals we offer a special crystal preparation and filling device (CPD) which is optimally adapted to our mark tubes.

Technical data for the glass qualities available:

Glass- No. Glass quality Linear absorption coefficient µ in cm -1 for CuK L- radiation Linear absorption coefficient µ in cm -1 for MoK L-radiation softening temperature
0100 Soda glass 126,0 14,70 708 °C
0140 Special glass 97,4 10,50 585 °C
0500 Borosilicate glass 71,0 7,35 815 °C
0610 Quartz glass 75,8 8,20 1.730 °C

Fault of measurement: with CuK L – radiation 0.6% with MoK L – radiation 1.0%
