Abstract
- An anvil-preformed gasket system has been developed to extend the pressure range for the widely used large volume cubic press without sacrificing the sample volume. The relationship of the sample chamber pressure versus press load for this system was calibrated at room temperature using transitions in Bi, Tl, and Ba. With similar sample volumes (8-11 mm in diameter and 8 mm in length), the anvil-preformed gasket system can generate pressures up to about 8.5 GPa, significantly higher than 6 GPa, which was generally the maximum pressure for the conventional anvil-gasket system. The details on the optimized design for the anvil-preformed gasket system are given in this note. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
