Making an hydrostatic room
DACs can be loaded with gaseous, liquid or solid samples. The direct compression of a solid determines non-hydrostatic pressure even at low pressures. For this reason, is recommended that solid samples, placed inside the gasket’s hole, is immersed in a gas or a liquid before compression. You can use for a good hydrostaticity until 15-20 GP is oil. Immersion oils are available with low or very low autofluorescence. Autofluorescence is the natural fluorescence emission of the oil when exposed to light. Each immersion oil has a different level of background emission.
