Embra
and Molybdenum Grids
3.05 mm diameter, 16* thickness for meshed, and 50* thickness for oval hole grids.
Material: Copper (Cu), Nickel (Ni), Gold (Au), Stainless Steel (SS), Titanium (Ti), Molybdenum (Mo), Aluminum (Al)
EMBRA electroformed grids combine a high open area with a rigid construction which allows for relatively easy handling. We offer these grids in a series of hard to find materials, which are not available from other manufacturers. They are as follows: Stainless Steel (SS), Titanium (Ti), Molybdenum (Mo), and Aluminum (Al)

TEM
Specimen Supports in Molybdenum
We have extended our range of TEM grid materials to include four types, which are now available in Molybdenum. The new products are manufactured using a process known as chemical ‘milling’ (etching) instead of the more familiar technique of ‘electroforming’ (deposition) that is used in the manufacture of copper, nickel and gold products. Molybdenum is used principally in applications where it’s high temperature, hardness, expansion of coefficient and corrosion resistance characteristics are considered important. The material which is used has a purity of 99.9%.
