Powder patterns of an extremely air sensitive substance can be prepared in a modified Guinier type camera, the substance being introduced in a closed glass capillary. The capillary is situated on the focusing circle of the camera parallel to the focal line of the monochromator and is rotated during exposure to X-rays. Line broadening and line shifts due to specimen geometry are discussed.
