[Ifeffit] Pellet sample preparation

[Heinz-Eberhard Mahnke]

Hi Dominik,
a comment added to Edmund's remark on celluse powder pellets:
from our experience with PE we typically add graphite powder to the PE or
now celluse for a better heat conductivity (and electrical conductivity in
case of charging).
Good luck
Eberhard
