Abstract
Loading capillaries with solids often is required for purpose such as determining the melting point of materials, storing small quantities of chemicals and carrying out reactions with solids at microscale level. This operation, when air-sensitive compounds are involved usually is performed in a globe-box with an inert gas. The procedure described in this article offers a simpler way to charge capillaries or tubes in an inert atmosphere using inexpensive materials.
