Buehler Epoxy Systems

This video is a brief demonstration on how to add pigment to Buehler’s epoxy systems. Pigments are added to epoxies to help create contrast between the specimen and mount. Pigments can also highlight cracks and pores when using darkfield microscopy.

This video is a brief demonstration on how to mix and use Buehler’s epoxy systems. Buehler’s epoxy are an excellent solution when materials are heat and/or pressure sensitive. Epoxies adhere to specimen edges and have low shrinkage. This means that they protect and support edges and preserve features, which allows both faster and higher quality preparation. For porous specimens, their low viscosity allows better infiltration into cracks and pores, especially when vacuum impregna¬tion is used. EpoKwick FC and EpoThin 2 and provide the lowest viscosity available on the market.

This video is a brief demonstration on how to Flat Edge Filler to Buehler’s epoxy systems. Flat Edge Filler increase the hardness and enhances the edge retention of castable mounting media.
