The Thermo Scientific ARL EQUINOX 100 X-ray Diffractometer is designed to meet structural and phase analysis requirements in both industrial and research laboratories. The bench-top design is ideal and a cost-effective solution for teaching in university and colleges. It features a unique detector technology without motorization for real-time simultaneous acquisition of full XRD pattern. It can perform XRD experiments on standard powders, thin films or small grains, with capillary stage or in controlled environment. Occupying a third of the space of a conventional diffractometer, this stand-alone, transportable bench-top instrument has the lowest cost of ownership with no peripheral dependence and maintenance.
