FAQs
1. What is the actual measured thickness tolerance for this ultrathin foil?
The foil maintains a thickness tolerance of ±0.0005µm across the entire surface area, verified through advanced metrology techniques during production.
2. Can this foil be used directly for TEM sample preparation without additional coating?
While the foil’s purity makes it suitable for many TEM applications, some specialized preparations may require conductive coatings depending on the specific imaging requirements and sample characteristics.
3. How does the 99.995% purity compare to standard aluminum foils available in the market?
This grade represents ultra-high purity with trace impurities measured in parts per million, significantly exceeding standard commercial aluminum foils that typically range between 99.0-99.7% purity.
4. What precautions should be taken when handling this ultrathin foil?
Use anti-static tweezers and work in a low-humidity environment to prevent electrostatic discharge or moisture absorption that could damage the foil’s integrity during handling.
5. Are there any specific storage conditions recommended to maintain the foil’s properties?
Store in the original packaging with desiccant packs at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and magnetic fields to preserve the foil’s surface quality and dimensional stability.
