Product Description

Carbon films on copper grids are thin and highly transparent to electrons, offering fine grain and low contrast that does not interfere with specimen structure.

Carbon Coating is 28-30nm

Supplied as packs of 25 or 50 grids in a grid box.

Carbon support films can be applied to other grid sizes, material or type. Further details available on request.



Superior Sample Support for Electron Microscopy

Carbon films on copper grids offer outstanding stability and conductivity, making them an optimal choice for supporting delicate specimens in transmission and scanning electron microscopy. With customizable mesh and carbon thickness options, these grids ensure high transparency, smooth surfaces, and minimal contamination, enhancing imaging quality and reproducibility for diverse laboratory and research needs.


Versatile Compatibility and Secure Storage

These carbon-coated copper grids are compatible with both TEM and SEM techniques, adapting to a wide range of sample types and imaging requirements. Each grid is carefully packed in storage boxes that protect against contamination and damage, facilitating convenient handling and preserving grid integrity during transport and storage.

FAQs of Carbon films on Copper Grids:


Q: How are carbon films on copper grids used in electron microscopy?

A: Carbon films on copper grids serve as a sample support for transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Their high transparency and conductivity allow electron beams to pass through specimens efficiently, producing clear and detailed images during analysis.

Q: What customization options are available for mesh size and carbon film thickness?

A: Custom mesh sizes such as 200, 300, and 400, as well as film thickness adjustments from approximately 10 to 40 nm, are available to suit specific experimental requirements. Researchers can request tailored specifications for unique sample preparation needs.

Q: When and where should carbon-coated copper grids be stored?

A: These grids should be stored in a dry, inert atmosphere, preferably in their original grid storage boxes, to prevent contamination and preserve surface quality. Proper storage ensures the grids remain stable over time and suitable for laboratory-grade applications.

Q: What are the benefits of using carbon films deposited on copper grids?

A: The key advantages include excellent electrical conductivity, high electron beam transparency, smooth surface finish, and chemical stability. These properties collectively enhance sample imaging, minimize background noise, and provide reliable specimen support.

Q: What is the typical process for preparing grids for sample mounting?

A: Carbon-coated copper grids are usually removed from storage boxes using clean, anti-static tweezers. Samples are mounted directly onto the carbon film, with care taken to avoid mechanical damage, ensuring optimal electron transmission during microscopy.

Q: Are these grids disposable after use and how should they be disposed?

A: Yes, these grids are designed for single-use applications and should be disposed of following standard laboratory solid waste protocols once sample analysis is complete, as they are insoluble and non-poisonous.

Q: What makes carbon-coated copper grids suitable for laboratory use in the United Kingdom?

A: With compliance to EM-grade laboratory standards, high purity, secure packaging, and robust performance across routines and research, these grids are widely supplied by dealers, exporters, and manufacturers throughout the United Kingdom.
