Microtomy of Large Particle Zeolites for Tem
Keyword(s):
ABSTRACTUniformly thin specimens of powders, suitable for electron microscopy, can be prepared by ultramicrotomy. There is a size limit to the particles that can be studied since larger particles tend to be dislodged from the available resins when microtomed. A method is described to strengthen the binding of the organic resin to the inorganic zeolite, allowing large particles to be sectioned. The particle size limit increased from 3 μm to greater than 20 gim in diameter for FeZSM-5 aggregates. This method can be applied to a variety of oxide powder samples, extending the utility of microtomy as a materials science tool.
