Users are requested to maintain log of their experiment and time. Log book must remain in the XRD lab all the time. It is strictly prohibited to carry out any XRD manuals out of the laboratory. It is also prohibited to install any software on the computer dedicated for the data acquisition.

 

The sample preparation table must be cleaned before leaving the XRD laboratory.

Samples may not be left in the lab.
There is no hood in the lab; therefore solvents should be used sparingly.
Please notify the laboratory manager to receive prior approval to use hazardous substances.
