Sample
Name
QUE97990 pellet
Date
2018-03-16
Provider
The sample comes from E. Quirico (IPAG)
Thickness
300.0 $\pm$ 100.0 ${\mu}m$
Diameter
13000.0 ${\mu}m$
Mass
0.1 $\pm$ 0.02 $g$
Substrate material
pressed KBr powder
Substrate comments
The KBr substrate is ~ 2 mm thick and 13 mm in diameter. It was formed by pre-pressing powdered KBr into a pellet. KBr is used as a substrate to avoid meteorite pellet break.
Comments
The pellet was prepared by pressing (7 tons for 10 min) about 100 mg of the powdered material (grain size 1–100 µm) on top of a KBr substrate pellet. The KBr is used as a substrate to avoid pellet break. Thickness of the meteorite pellet is large enough (>200 µm) to avoid contribution of KBr to the spectra.
