MAC Reference Standards for X-ray Microanalysis
We have approximately 200 standard materials to choose from. All of our standards are suitable for electron-beam energy dispersive or wavelength dispersive X-ray microanalysis systems. All of our standards are polished to a 0.25 micron diamond finish and carbon coated. They are supplied with fully authenticated certificates of analyses and a location map for standard identification. A Faraday Cup, for accurate specimen current measurements, is available as an optional extra on all mounts. The standards are available in different sizes of brass holders:
- 25mm or 32mm diameter, containing up to 60 standards of your choice.
- Carousels, 13mm diameter blocks(to fit pin stubs), and single standards of 5mm, 3mm, 2mm diameter, are also available.
- Specials can be "tailor-made" to suit individual needs and specific stage configurations.
Customized Multielement Standards
