· Quantity: 30ml minimum required for liquid sample. Please supply in a sealed container.

· Sample Type: Solid, Liquid, Powder and thin films

· Pre-preparation: In solid sample, its surface must be flat.

· User instructions: Submit two Identical Pieces (if solid), most test require the sensor to be sandwiched between two identical pieces.

· If the test must be conducted at non-ambient temperature, specify the required temperature.

· Submit a brief description of your material, expected thermal range.
