Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM)

Including the use of high resolution JEOL equipment.

Transmission Electron Microscopy

Prices include all microscopy with eight to ten photo enlargements (8 1/2" x 11") per sample. Please specify your need for high resolution or ultra-high resolution (>100,000X) results. Fees depend on the number of samples submitted at one time, the type of samples and the specimen preparation techniques required. Samples routinely studied include polymer latex emulsion size distributions, particle morphologies, rubber modified polymer phase distributions, pigment, additive and carbon black dispersions in polymers, composite reinforcement interface characterization and catalyst characterization. We are also equipped to carry out virtually any life science preparation protocol.


Special Samples

For samples requiring special thin-sectioning techniques that degrade our diamond knives.
(i.e. supported catalysts, ceramics, refractories, and other hard materials)
Add $ 200.00 to our sample price.


Analytical TEM

Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy

Includes TEM / SAED / EDS. Identifies phases in metals, ceramics, and refractories; active melts, poisons, and promoters in catalysts; inorganic additives in polymers.
