Tuesday, May 02, 2023, 14:03
Two np-TiO2 spun fibrous pellets and 1 batch of fibre mats were wrapped with graphite foils and loaded into a target boat.
Sample will be heated to 1875C, similar to the previous process, see e-log ID#605 (TGHT: 440A/7.6V).

Target container consists of two np-Ta fibres disk samples. Both disks are made from heat stabilized np-Ta fibres (150 C for 17 hours) and were
pressed at 8 tons / 300 MPa.
