Multi-Anvil Press
The High Pressure platform disposes a multi-anvil press of 800 tons that can achieve pressures up to 22 GPa and temperatures up to 2000 oC with the new Walker module that has been installed. Different assemblies (14/8, 10/5, 10/4) can be used with WC cubes of 32 mm. The heating of the sample can be done with graphite or rhenium ovens. The temperature of the sample can be measured in-situ with a type-C or type-D thermocouple. The multi-anvil press allows carrying out synthesis experiments at very stable high pressure and temperature conditions for a long time (many days).
