Description of Platinum Crucibles and Moulds:
Our platinum crucibles and moulds are manufactured using a 5 % Au-Pt alloy. The crucibles and moulds produced from this 5 % Au-Pt alloy are employed in sample preparation prior to XRF analysis. The non‐wetting property of this material facilitates the removal of bead samples after melting.
