Hot and Cold Mounting Consumables for Sample Encapsulation

Choosing the right mounting method is essential for preserving sample integrity and ensuring optimal preparation results. Whether you need to protect delicate specimens or process large batches efficiently, our range of hot and cold mounting consumables offers reliable solutions tailored to your specific requirements.

Cold Mounting

Cold mounting is ideal for samples that are sensitive to heat and pressure, or when superior resin flow and penetration are necessary. It’s also the preferred choice when encapsulating multiple samples simultaneously, thanks to its ease of use and efficiency.

Acrylic Resins: Known for their fast curing times, acrylics are perfect when quick turnaround and high-volume sample processing are priorities.

Epoxy Resins: Offering excellent flow, strong adhesion, chemical resistance, low shrinkage, and clarity, epoxies are well-suited for applications demanding superior resin performance and durability.

Hot Compression Mounting

Hot compression mounting provides an economical and effective way to encapsulate samples that can tolerate heat and pressure. This method uses specialized mounting powders and preforms designed for consistent results. Each powder product comes with a measuring scoop for easy and accurate preparation.

Whether using hot or cold mounting techniques, our consumables are engineered to deliver consistent, high-quality encapsulation, protecting your samples throughout the analysis process.
