Key Applications & Uses

  • Metallographic sample preparation for optical microscopy, SEM, and hardness testing where precise edge preservation is critical.
  • Mounting of medium-hard metals including general steels, tool steels, hard alloys, aluminum alloys, copper, and brass to prevent edge rounding during grinding and polishing.
  • Ideal for specimens requiring high-contrast backgrounds (light yellow appearance aids visibility in microhardness indentations and microstructural analysis).
  • Routine and advanced applications in universities, research institutions, pharmaceutical/biotech labs (for material characterization), and industrial quality control labs in automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing sectors.
  • Multi-sample embedding to increase throughput while maintaining uniform mount sizes for automated polishing systems.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: What types of samples is GHEXA-MNT-CON-PHE-006 best suited for? A: It excels with medium-hard materials like steels, hard alloys, aluminum, copper, and similar metals. For very hard or soft/brittle samples, consider complementary epoxy-based options from G-Hexa.

Q: How does the mineral filling improve performance? A: The mineral filler enhances hardness, reduces shrinkage, improves adhesion to the sample, and provides excellent edge retention to minimize rounding or damage during abrasive preparation steps.

Q: What mounting press settings are recommended? A: Use 150-180°C heating temperature, 150-300 bar pressure, 4-7 min holding time, and 5-8 min medium-rate cooling for optimal results. Adjust slightly based on your press model and sample size.

Q: Is this resin suitable for microhardness testing? A: Yes — its high hardness and light color provide excellent contrast for indent visibility and reliable measurements.

Q: What package sizes are available? A: Offered in 1 kg, 4 kg, and 20 kg packs to match lab consumption needs, from R&D to production-scale operations.

Q: Does it produce gaps or pull-away from the sample? A: No — the formulation ensures strong adhesion and very low shrinkage, resulting in gap-free mounts with superior edge protection.
