Preparation of the 7mm Pellet Die Assembly
Prior to placing the 7mm pellet die assembly (
1
) into the Mini-Pellet
Press pressing area (
2
), a potassium bromide (KBr) powder mixture
with a solid sample is prepared. A suitable quantity of the solid sample
with an amount of KBr powder (P/N GS03610) in the usual ratio of 1
part sample to 300 parts KBr can be ground together using the agate
pestle and mortar (P/N GS03600) or an automatic grinding mill such as
the Specamill (P/N GS06000) with an agate capsule set (P/N
GS06200).
The 7mm pellet die assembly complete (
1
) consists of a central pellet
ring holder (
6
), top anvil (
8
), a bottom anvil (
9
) and a clear Perspex
extractor ring cap (
10
). (See Fig 2.) The top anvil (
8
) has a longer
central “plunger” section than the bottom anvil (
9
).

When the sample has been ground sufficiently, place some of the KBr
mixture into the central hole of the 7mm pellet die ring holder (
6
) as it
rests on the bottom anvil (
9
). (see Fig 3.)
