Formvar/Carbon on 300 Mesh Copper (Pack of 50)

Product Description

These thin cast films of Formvar have been strengthened with the addition of a layer of evaporated carbon on copper grids. The composite films have extra resilience and strength compared with carbon films. They are recommended for use where the grid has to undergo several processing steps during specimen preparation.

Supplied either in packs of 25 or 50 grids in a grid box depending on each particular product.

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

Exceptional Film Integrity and Conductivity

These Formvar/carbon-coated copper grids are engineered for robust support and optimal electron transmission, thanks to the high-purity resin film and precisely layered carbon overlay. The carbon coating not only enhances conductivity but also facilitates high-resolution TEM imaging, ensuring fine details of specimens are clearly observed.


Reliable Compatibility and Versatile Usage

Standardized 3.05 mm diameter and 300 mesh size ensure compatibility with most TEM instruments. The grids are meticulously manufactured to analytical and research-grade standards, making them suitable for a wide range of microscopy applications, particularly for supporting ultra-thin sections in biological or materials research.


Safe Handling and Storage Recommendations

Handle each grid with anti-static tweezers to prevent film rupture and contamination. Store the pack in a dry, dust-free environment, away from heat and humidity. Proper storage preserves grid integrity for up to 12 years, ensuring dependable performance when needed.
