Do you run into challenges when collecting X-ray powder patterns in Reflection and Transmission geometries, setup, and optimal measurement parameters for pharmaceutical samples? 

In this episode of The Pharma Lab Show live, we used the SmartLab SE to demonstrate:

  • Instrument setup for Reflection and Transmission measurements. 
  • How to select the measurement range and step size. 
  • Should you use sample spinning and what spin speeds work best. 
  • The importance of measurement time.
