Thin Section Preparation

​Overcome the unique challenges of thin section preparation with this webinar!

Thin section (TS) preparation presents unique challenges due to the wide range of materials that are prepared.  Thin sections are used primarily in geology but also in a wide variety of other fields such as construction, biology, and archeology. Common preparation difficulties include brittle specimens, pull-outs, relief between phases/constituents, and water sensitivity.
