PAINEIRA (Powder X-ray Diffraction) will be a beamline optimized for the X-ray diffraction of polycrystalline materials in Debye-Scherrer geometry (capillary geometry or transmission mode). The beamline is aimed primarily at the structural characterization of materials in the powder form, such as ceramics, pharmaceuticals, minerals, catalysts, amongst others. The beamline will operate in high-throughput mode to rapidly characterize numerous samples. In addition, PAINEIRA will offer reaction cells and accessories for conducting experiments under in situ conditions as well as perform operando studies on functional materials and devices for energy storage and catalysis, for example.
