EM-Tec Ø3mm embedding tubes for TEM sample preparation
The EM-Tec Ø3mm embedding tube for TEM sample preparation are useful when making cross sections of materials for examining in the TEM. The 3mm outer diameter is compatible with the TEM sample holder; the 2mm or 1.5mm inside diameter leaves enough space to embed the sample(s). The sample is embedded with a suitable epoxy (such as Hysol or Torr-Seal), after that a thin section is cut with a micro-saw and finally thinned for TEM imaging by mechanical polishing or ion-beam polishing
The EM-Tec embedding tubes are offered in different materials to avoid cross contamination with the sample. Standard outside diameter is 3mm; inside diameter is 2mm or 1.5mm. Sold in lengths of 50mm in pkg/2.
