Electron Microscopy Sciences Ems Petrographic Epoxy - Surface Thermometer

Electron Microscopy Sciences Ems petrographic epoxy is the only epoxy based mounting medium with a refractive index of nd=1.540±0.001. This is ideal for general petrography, aiding in distinguishing between feldspars. The low viscosity allows for excellent penetration during impregnation and specimen mounting and makes applying cover glasses easy. The tremendous bond strength allows the sawing and rough grinding to a much thinner section than with any other mounting medium. Remounting of specimens due to plucking and bond separation is virtually eliminated. Once the two ems petrographic epoxy components are mixed, the pot life of ems petrographic epoxy is about 5 days at 21°c (70°f). This eliminates waste due to the rapid gelation and allows mounting of sections as needed. - EMS
