Buehler Final Polishing Suspensions
Final polishing suspensions are designed to remove the final layer of surface deformation and prepare a sample for analysis. A variety of alumina and silica products are offered to meet many application needs.
- Final polishing suspensions remove the final layer of surface deformation that may be left after diamond polishing. While this deformation is often invisible to the naked eye, it must be removed for some analysis techniques.
- Alumina suspensions and powders along with colloidal silica suspensions offer a solution for the wide variety of materials being processed in today's world
