Holey Carbon Films on 300 Mesh Gold (Pack of 25)

Product Description

Holey carbon films have many uses in microscopy but for certain applications the mesh sizes of standard TEM grids are too large to support the sample. Continuous carbon films can also be a problem due to the fact that the thin film can inelastically scatter electrons and contribute to background noise. Holey carbon films therefore are a suitable alternative.
Holey carbon films have holes of various sizes up to 100m. In addition to providing support, the increased image contrast in the regions of the holes compared to regions of film is also of benefit. Typical applications include biological and materials science and cryo-TEM.

Supplied as 25 or 50 grids in a grid box.
Holey carbon support films can be applied to other grid sizes, material or type. Further details available on request.

High-Quality TEM Support Film

The Holey Carbon Film on 300 Mesh Gold provides a reliable foundation for sample preparation in TEM research. Its perforated carbon layer is optimized for imaging and particle dispersion, making it invaluable for material science and biological studies. The gold mesh ensures stability and minimizes background interference.


Safe Handling and Storage Recommendations

For best results, always handle the grids with clean, anti-static tweezers to prevent damage or contamination. Store the grids in a dust-free, dry environment to maintain their integrity. Following these precautions ensures the longevity and purity of the films, allowing for consistent research outcomes.


Compatibility and Application Scope

These support films are suitable for a wide range of TEM applications, from nanomaterials analysis to biological sample support. Their standard size of 3.05 mm diameter fits most TEM holders. Researchers value their versatility and ability to deliver high-resolution images with minimal artifacts.
