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

Product Description

These thin cast films of Formvar have been strengthened with the addition of a layer of evaporated carbon on nickel 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 as 25 or 50 grids in a grid box.

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

Exceptional Material and Design

Each Formvar/Carbon on Nickel grid is fabricated using high-purity nickel and a thin, ultra-flat carbon/formvar film, providing superior support for delicate samples. The precise 300 mesh structure ensures uniform sample distribution, while the carbon-laminated surface offers outstanding electrical conductivity and minimises background noise in imaging.


Versatile Application in Electron Microscopy

These grids are an industry-standard choice for electron microscopy (TEM), accommodating a broad range of specimens including biological tissue sections and nanomaterial samples. Their robustness supports both routine analysis and advanced research, fitting seamlessly into various laboratory protocols.


Reliable Performance and Storage

Vacuum-deposited carbon and meticulously cast Formvar films deliver unmatched grid stability. Proper storage at room temperature in dry conditions ensures a shelf life exceeding two years. This reliability makes the grids a staple for laboratories seeking consistent and reproducible TEM results.
