Aka-Resin Hot Mounting Compounds

from £64.00

Aka-Resin Hot Mounting Compounds provide protection and support of the sample surface, makes it easier to handle the sample, allows for several small samples in one mount and gives uniform sizes for clamping in a sample holder. Hot mounting resins are to be used in a mounting press, where they are processed at high pressure and temperature to very uniform mounts ideal for examination in upright microscopes or other devices requiring specific sizes or shapes. Depending on your requirements, several different hot mounting compounds are available for your hot mounting process:

Aka-Resin Hot Mounting Compounds

Hot mounting resins are single compounds for use in mounting presses.

• Aka-Resin Epoxy is a black mineral-filled thermosetting compound for perfect mounts with very low shrinkage and best edge retention.

• Aka-Resin Melamine is a white mineral-filled thermosetting compound for universal mounting with low shrinkage. White colour gives perfect contrast in hardness testing.

• Aka-Resin Acrylic is a thermoplastic compound for crystal clear mounts for easy visibility of the sample.

• Aka-Resin Phenolic SEM is a black carbon-filled thermosetting compound for conductive mounting used in SEM work.

• Aka-Resin Phenolic is a black wood-filled thermosetting compound for backfilling and mounting of routine samples.

• Aka-Resin Phenolic - 2 is a black wood-filled thermosetting compound for backfilling and mounting of routine samples but requires a longer heating time..

• Aka-Resin PP is a Mineral-filled polypropylene resin for hot mounting. Aka-Resin PP is a dust-free resin with low shrinkage, good adhesion and high/easy flow properties for high-quality mounts
