3. EMBEDDING
Prepare the Epoxy resin.
Introduce the prepared ART.cap1/2 inside the full holes of the ART.mold. 100 and cover it with epoxy resin.
Prepare more half capsules. It is possible to embed 12 samples and produced 12 half capsules with one epoxy resin preparation.
4. POLISHING
Hand polishing can be done in few minutes.
Sample is ready to be observed under the microscope.
Why use ARTmold100?
GREEN FRIENDLY
Due to the small size of the capsules it is possible to save epoxy resin and prepare the amount needed to embed 4 samples and produce 4 other half capsules for future samples.
