Carbon films on Nickel Grids

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.
