AMPOULES


TAM Ampoules are used to contain the sample in the calorimeter during measurement. the ampoules are of two basic types; Closed and Open. In the Closed ampoules, no manipulation to the sample is done during the measurement. In the Open ampoules, also reffered to as the Micro Reaction System, the sample can be manipulated after insertion into the calorimeter. These include:



• Closed Ampoules – A majority of experiments do not need any change in the experimental conditions during measurements. Such experiments can be run in closed ampoules.

• Open Ampoules Micro Reaction System – The Micro Reaction System is used whenever sample manipulation is required during measurements. With the Micro Reaction System gas or liquid can be perfused over a sample, injections of one substance to another stirred substance can be made, or the smaple can be exposed to a controlled realtive humidity or vapor pressure. The sample is loaded into a reaction vessel made of glass, stainless steel or hastelloy. This reaction vessel (available in 1, 4, 20ml) is then sealed on the Micro Reaction ampoule.
