Furnace for Molten Salt Measurements on the Cary Model 14-H Spectrophotometer up to 1450°C

Abstract
A resistance‐heated furnace is described which may be used with the Cary model 14‐H spectrophotometer for measuring the absorption spectra of liquid systems at temperatures up to 1450°C. The furnace accommodates a 10‐mm‐square absorption cell and has a platinum liner to contain accidental release of corrosive liquids. The heating element is made of Pt‐20% Rh alloy.
