Microscopy
Microscopic methods provide information about size, shape, and structure of materials and surface topography information. There are three main branches of microscopy; optical, electron and scanning probe microscopy.
Applications:
- Failure analysis
- Contamination analysis
- Quality control
- Fiber diameter measurements
- Deformulation
- Elemental compositions
- Competitive product analysis
- Surface roughness
- Phase morphology
- Dispersion
- Quality control
- Distributions of glass fiber sizes in glass-filled components
- Layer thickness of laminated films or multi-layer products
