LGH1500C - TU Dublin - Benchtop Scanning Electron Microscope with Tensile Testing

A benchtop scanning electron microscope with a low equipment footprint, capable of - High resolution magnifications of at least 100k X - Tensile strength testing. - Holding samples of up to 80 mm and larger in size. - EDS or EDX analysis for elemental mapping in variable pressure environments. - Providing 3D and large area imaging and live video to synchronise with the mechanical testing. Some potential applications include: - Examining particle morphology and shape - Examining surface features - Supporting laser diffraction particle sizing method development work - Imaging and Identification of contaminants (e.g. spots on a tablet) - Measuring sample elemental composition and mapping elemental distribution - Measuring the tensile strength of materials - Samples to be tested would include metallurgical samples, powders, thin films, microneedle arrays, solid dosage forms (e.g. tablets) and drug-coated substrates (e.g. stents or catheters). The SEM system should be flexible and allow for purchase of additional functionality (hardware and software) at a later date to keep up-to-date with developments in the field.
