1. Classification of Scanning Electron Microscopes Scanning electron microscopy can be divided into thermal electron emission type and field emission type according to the different ways of electron generation. The filament used for thermal electron emission type is mainly tungsten filament electron microscopy. Field emission type The distinction between hot field emission and cold field emission....

The essence of sintering is that the powder block is heated in an appropriate environment or atmosphere, and through a series of physical and chemical changes, the bonding between powder particles undergoes a qualitative change. The strength and density of the block increase rapidly, and other physical and mechanical properties are also significantly improved. The performance of ceramic materials ...

Scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a key tool for modern scientific exploration of the microscopic world. It plays an irreplaceable role in scientific research and industrial applications by enabling us to gain insights into the microscopic structure of matter through high-resolution electronic imaging technology. SEM scans the surface of the sample with a high-energy electron beam to collect s...

The major limitations on TEM performance are spherical aberration (also known as aberration), chromatic aberration, and astigmatism. The spherical aberration and chromatic aberration limit the resolution of traditional TEM. Both of these defects are inevitable when using static rotational symmetric electromagnetic fields. Ball aberration is the most important factor determining the performance of ...

The meanings of metamorphic treatment, grain refinement, and primary phase refinement or morphology change are different, and sometimes the term metamorphic treatment is used to summarize these contents. (1) Deterioration treatment. For simple binary Al Si alloys, such as Z102 containing 11%~13% Si, it is a typical eutectic alloy. Its organization consists of coarse needle shaped (should be layere...

In transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis, the primary and crucial step in obtaining a high-quality image that can be interpreted reasonably is sample preparation. Inappropriate sample thickness, poor conductivity, or damage introduced during sample preparation can directly lead to abnormal electron beam penetration, image distortion, and even sample scrapping. TEM sample requirements ① T...

With the increasing demand for high thermal conductivity materials, filled thermal conductive polymer composites have good application prospects. The performance of thermal conductive composite materials largely depends on the selection of thermal conductive fillers. Aluminum oxide (Al2O3)is a common ceramic filler with high hardness and good thermal conductivity, and is a commonly used choice to ...

Powder surface modification changes the surface state of particles through physical or chemical means, with the core being to break the agglomeration force between particles. When the particle size of the powder decreases to the micrometer or nanometer level, the surface energy sharply increases, and van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonds, and other gravitational forces cause the particles to sponta...
