1 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE: PANALYTICAL X PERT PRO XRD Purpose of this Instrument: Identification of signal-phase materials and multi-phase mixture; Quantitative determination of amounts of different phases in multi-phase mixture. Location: Room B-61D Engineering Sciences Building Primary Staff Contact: Weiqiang Ding (304) cell weding@mail.wvu.edu Secondary Staff Contact: Harley Hart (412) cell harley.hart@mail.wvu.edu The Shared Research Facilities are operated for the benefit of all researchers. If you encounter any problems with this piece of equipment, please contact the staff member listed above immediately. There is never a penalty for asking questions. If the equipment is not behaving exactly the way it should, contact a staff member. WARNING: This system generates X-rays. Radiation is monitored by a room dosimeter as specified by WVU Radiation Safety. NOTE: The purpose of this manual is for general measurements with the PANalytical X Pert Pro XRD. For more advanced measurements or measurements with certain accessories, please contact SRF staff members for assistance. START UP 1. Log in your session on the FOM on the log-in computer on the workbench. 2. Sign in on the logbook located on the workbench next to the log-in computer. 3. Check the X-ray generator display on the XRD instrument display panel (Figure 1). The Voltage should be 45 kv and the Current should be 20 ma. The Shutter should be closed (no display under Shutter open). Contact MCF staff if the XRD is not in the stated idle condition. NOTE: If Shutter open display shows 1 (open) but the XRD is not scanning (angle values do not change), press the Shutter close button to close the shutter. If shutter display shows, the doors are not fully closed. Close the doors tight and the display will disappear. Figure 1. XRD idle state status display 1

POWDER SAMPLE PREPARATION The following procedure is for preparing powder samples only. If you have other types of samples for measurement, please contact MCF staff for assistance. 1. Follow the Stand Sample Preparation procedure on the workbench to load powder sample with the Powder Sample Preparation Kit (Figure 3). (a) Figure 3. (a) Empty holder; (b) Holder filled with powder. (b) 2. If you only have small amount of powder sample (not enough to fill the holder), you may put a small piece of glass in the holder and then load powder on top. 2

3 SAMPLE LOADING (FOR AUTOLOADER) The following procedure is for performing measurements with Sample Spinner and Autoloader only on powder samples. If you need to use the universal stage or bracket stage, please contact MCF staff for assistance. 1. Check to ensure that shutter is closed. Open the enclosure doors. 2. If you only have one sample loaded in the sample holder, mount it at the A1 position on top of the A sample column. 3. If you have less than 15 samples, mount them in the A column from top down. Use B & C column positions if you have more than 15 samples (Figure 4). 4. Close the enclosure doors and make sure they are fully closed. Figure 4.

14 EMERGENCY PROCEDURES If a user ever has a problem or an uncertainty should ASK someone who knows and can help. There are no penalties for asking for help but there may be for not reporting damage to the equipment that may delay or prevent others from working. If, at any time, the user needs to contact someone for help, call or locate the following staff of the Materials Characterization Facility (MCF): Weiqiang Ding Office: ESB G75D Phone: (304) cell Harley Hart Office: White Hall 409 Phone: (412) If no one is available and the XRD is not acting as expected, the user should do the following: Shut down the XRD power by pressing the Standby button on control panel Shut down the computer Then, if possible, the user should stay with the optical profiler while trying to contact the above individuals. If it becomes necessary to leave the instrument then the user should leave a large, legible note on both the optical profiler and at least one of the above individuals offices, stating: The problem, describing what happened and steps taken When it occurred date and time User name and phone number If a dangerous situation is evident (smoke, fire, sparks, etc.), the user should press the Emergency power off button to turn OFF power to the entire system and notify the proper emergency personnel. If turning off the power would be unsafe in the user s estimation, the user should leave the facility and contact emergency personnel immediately. 14
