Increased selectivity of Pd based catalysts in alkyne hydrogenation reactions by the modification of their electronic structure
High-flux PGAA for milligram-weight samples
With the high-intensity cold neutron flux available at the Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis (PGAA) instrument of the research reactor FRM II at the Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Zentrum (MLZ), samples with a weight of 1 mg or even less can be investigated for their elemental compositions using the (n,Îł) capture reaction. In such cases, the typical sample packing material for PGAA experiments made of 25 ÎĽm thick PTFE foil (ca. 80 mg) can be orders of magnitude more massive than the sample weight itself. Proper choice of the packing material and measuring conditions are then of the highest importance [1]
