Processing steps
Step Chronology Date Type Process Changes
#1 after sample formation 2007-01-01 mechanical surface of sample flattened with a spatula to obtain a smooth surface with limited powder compaction limited compaction of the surface
#2 after sample formation 2007-01-01 thermal the sample is heated at 443 K following a temperature ramp of 1 h while the chamber is open to air. After 1 h at 443 K, the chamber is closed and heating stops. Sample temperature decreases for a few hours to reach the temperature of the cold room (263 K) removing of adsorbed/interlayer H2O
#3 after sample formation 2007-01-01 fluid physical simulation chamber is slowly pumped down to pressure lower than 10-6 mbar Removing of adsorbed/interlayer H2O. Air to vacuum (mostly residual H2O from sample)
#4 after sample formation 2007-01-01 thermal under secondary vacuum, the sample is heated again at 446 K during a minimum of 10 h removing of adsorbed/interlayer H2O
