Product Description

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

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.



Efficient Sample Support for TEM

These carbon films on nickel grids provide highly efficient support for biological and material specimens during transmission electron microscopy. Their smooth finish and high purity ensure minimal background interference, contributing to accurate and reliable imaging results. The fragile film requires careful handling, making precision tweezers essential during setup.


High Transmission for Clear Imaging

Achieving over 85% electron transmission, these grids are ideal for users demanding crisp, high-resolution images. Their optimized film thickness (530 nm) and mesh sizes facilitate superior electron flow, reducing absorption and scattering. This results in enhanced sample visibility without compromising structural integrity.


Versatile Mesh and Grid Options

With mesh sizes available in 200, 300, or 400 and both square and hexagonal patterns, researchers have flexibility in selecting the most appropriate grid for various sample types. The grids diameter of approximately 3.05 mm suits most standard TEM holders, supporting a broad range of laboratory applications.

FAQs of Carbon films on Nickel Grids:


Q: How should carbon films on nickel grids be handled to avoid damage?

A: Use precision tweezers when handling these grids, as the carbon film is fragile and can tear or break easily. Avoid touching the film directly and handle using only the grid rim to maintain its integrity.

Q: What is the main benefit of using carbon films on nickel grids in TEM applications?

A: Carbon films on nickel grids provide high electron transmission and minimal background interference, optimizing sample visibility and ensuring reliable imaging for accurate microscopy analysis.

Q: When is it appropriate to choose between different mesh sizes (200, 300, or 400 mesh)?

A: Select mesh size according to sample requirements: coarser meshes (200) offer more support for larger specimens, while finer meshes (400) are suitable for small or delicate samples requiring a greater number of support points with minimal obstruction.

Q: Where should these grids be stored to maintain their shelf life?

A: Store the grids in a dry, dust-free environment inside their anti-static grid box. This prevents contamination and ensures indefinite shelf life under proper conditions.

Q: What process is followed to prepare the grids for microscopy analysis?

A: Samples are typically placed onto the carbon film using appropriate deposition methods, then dried and transferred to compatible TEM holders for imaging. Careful handling is essential throughout to prevent film damage.

Q: Are carbon films on nickel grids compatible with all TEM instruments?

A: Yes, these grids are designed to fit most standard TEM holders and meet microscopy-grade standards, making them compatible with a wide range of TEM applications.

Q: What distinguishes carbon films on nickel grids from other grid-based supports?

A: Compared to other supports, these grids deliver exceptional electron transmission, high purity, and smooth film surfaces, minimizing pinholes and maximizing imaging reliability for advanced microscopy techniques.
