Analyze molten liquids at very high temperatures

| By Chemical Engineering

The Drop Shape Analysis System with Tube Furnace (DSAHT; photo) can perform optical drop studies at temperatures up to 1,750°C, making it suitable for studying liquid metals and slag, molten glass and ceramics at their firing temperature. The clear shadow image of the sample provides information about the melting behavior (for example, flyash fusibility according to ASTM D1857). The shape of a molten drop on a solid sample makes wetting visible. Versions up to 1,200, 1,500 or 1,750°C, for oxidizing, reducing or inert atmospheres, or for measurement under vacuum cover a wide range of applications. — Krüss GmbH, Hamburg, Germany
