Phase and Particle Analysis

Phase and Particle Analysis Map with X-Ray spectrometryPhase analysis is a stereological or quantitative metallographic technique for characterizing a three-dimensional microstructure from two-dimensional sections. Some applications include determining the percentage of graphite in cast irons, porosity in thermal spray coatings, cobalt in PDC diamond cutters, etc.

 We produced this backscatter image with our SEM/EDS, where phase percentage in a material can very quickly be calculated and observed.

 Backscattered electron images (BSE) can be used for rapid discrimination of phases in multiphase samples.

 

    Advantages

  • Experience
  • Modern SEM/EDS System
  • No hidden charges
  • Easy and quick availability, same or next day turn around time in most cases
  • Conveniently located in Northwest Houston
