The following procedures are for mounting a single sample on a sample
disk. However, you can mount many samples on a single sample disk.
For samples that are not sensitive to heat, follow these steps:
Locate a sample disk and place it on a heating element (hot plate), as
1
shown in Figure 2-11.
Figure 2-11Heat the sample disk on a heating element
Turn the heating element on medium-low heat and wait for the disk
2
to heat for about 5 minutes (or until it is hot enough to melt
crystalbond).
When the disk is warm, spread a small amount of crystalbond onto
3
the surface of the disk, as shown in
