The BTX II is an advanced X-ray diffractometer for materials characterisation utilised in Monash Pharmacy Lab's chemical engineering and nanomaterials research. This automated XRD system rapidly analyses the crystalline structure and phase identification of inorganic compounds and advanced materials like nanocomposites, catalysts, and polymer blends. Easy fluxTM measurement without sample preparation saves time. An integrated high-resolution image plate detector captures diffraction patterns for quantitative phase analysis, determination of lattice parameters, and structure solution. Intuitive software controls parameters like radiation wavelength, scan mode, range and speed to optimise data generation. With exceptional precision and minimal sample requirements, the BTX II facilitates students’ cutting-edge research into crystallography, microstructural properties, solid-state chemistry, specialised projects in physical pharmacy, and advanced materials development.
