Operando micro-spectroscopy on ZSM-5 containing extrudates during the oligomerization of 1-hexene

This article studies the impact of the binder material in industrial catalysts. Using the Linkam TS1500V to perform catalytic reactions at 250 and 300°C, the authors used operando spectrocopy and in situ confocal fluoroscence microscopy to show how different binder materials affect the final material composition.

Phase transitions in secnidazole: Thermal stability and polymorphism studied by X-ray powder diffraction, thermal analysis and vibrational spectroscopy

Here, researchers use techniques such as Raman spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction and hot stage microscopy with Linkam’s FTIR600 to observe the dehydration process of the antimicrobial drug secnidazole, which aids quality control and development of solid pharmaceutical formulations.
