Summary

The melting point capillary is filled and closed in a dry-box and hereafter packed and fused shut outside the box.

Zusammenfassung

Die Schmelzpunktkapillare wird in einer mit trockenem Stickstoff gefüllten Kammer, in der die Substanz hergestellt wurde, gefüllt und vorläufig mit einem Kork oder einer Gummikappe verschlossen. Hernach wird außerhalb der Kammer die Substanz dicht gepackt und die Kapillare zugeschmolzen.

Résumé

Le capillaire à point de fusion est chargé à l'intérieur d'une chambre pleine d'azote sec à l'intérieur de laquelle la substance a été préparée puis il est préliminairement fermé avec un chapeau de liège ou de caoutchouc. Lasubstance est ensuite tassée de façon serrée à l'extérieur de la chambre et le capillaire est scellé par fusion.
