Composition: Pt Form: Crucible Material: Platinum CAS Number: 7440-06-4 Commodity: Precious Metals
Platinum Classic Micro Crucible with Pouring Lip (99.99% purity) is a small-format fusion vessel for micro-scale sample preparation workflows requiring controlled transfer of molten material from crucible to casting mould. Available from OD 12 mm to OD 26 mm, it combines the compact dimensions suited to small or precious samples with an integral pouring lip that enables directed melt transfer without material loss. This format is suited to micro-scale XRF fusion bead preparation, small-sample geological and mineralogical analysis, and research synthesis workflows where sample quantity is limited and clean bead release is essential to analytical quality. Its 99.99% pure platinum construction ensures no contamination of the melt or analytical substrate across repeated fusion cycles. Typical applications include small-volume geological sample fusion for XRF trace element analysis, micro-bead preparation for reference material calibration, and high-sensitivity analytical workflows in research and commercial assay environments.
