✦ Synopsis
The design of an X-ray powder diffraction probe and its integration with a multichannel reactor system for potential application in high-throughput experimentation is presented. The working principle of the apparatus is exemplified by measurements of corundum and of the phase change observed when oxidizing vanadium(III) oxide (V 2 O 3 ) in air during heating up to 450 °C. The phase transformations of the parent material were monitored by phase identification of the crystalline intermediate vanadium(IV) oxide (VO 2 ) and the final product vanadium(V) oxide (V 2 O 5 ).
