Scanning Electron Microscopy / Micro-Analysis

Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive Spectrometry SEM/EDS

Our Scanning Electron Microscope and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectrometer (SEM/EDS) can examine and analyze samples at magnifications from 5X to 200,000X. Both the microstructure and fracture surface are analyzed.

The fracture surface topography revealed at high magnification indicates:

type of stress (tensile, shear, torsional)
mode of fracture (ductile, brittle, fatigue, overload)
direction of fracture propagation
area and mechanism of fracture initiation
manufacturing or repair related factors contributing to the failure
other factors related to cause of failure

MTi has two commercial SEM/EDS systems and is one of very few labs with these systems that is strictly dedicated to metallurgical analysis and corrosion-investigations in the Southeast.

SEM/EDS Chemical Analysis

Chemical Analysis of microscopic particles or regions within a sample analyzed in the Scanning Electron Microscope. Energy Dispersive Spectrometer (EDS) micro-analysis is performed by measuring the energy and intensity distribution of X-ray signals generated by a focused electron beam on the specimen (EDS). With the attachment of the energy dispersive spectrometer, the elemental composition of materials can be obtained.
