32 mm Pressed Pellets for XRF – an alternative to the Nano-Pellets for XRF!
December 21, 2023
During the Geoanalysis conference in Freiberg in 2022 we met a representative from Evident Scientific (formerly Olympus). Having had a conversation about a potential collaboration and the possibility of loaning a handheld x-ray fluorescence (XRF) instrument we set out to develop a new type of pressed pellet.
