Cryo Ion Milling Cross-Section Processing Example (Rubber Products)

We will introduce a case where cross-sections were created and observed for the adhesive parts of pull-back car tires, categorized by method.
Upon conducting SEM observations of the created cross-sections, fillers present within the rubber were confirmed. It was found that the dispersion state of the fillers, both large and small, and the appearance of the adhesive interface were not clear with liquid nitrogen fracturing or mechanical polishing.
In contrast, the cross-sections created by cryo ion milling allow for a clear observation of the dispersion state of the fillers contained in the rubber and the appearance of the adhesive interface with the plastic substrate.
【Cross-section Preparation Methods】
■ Liquid Nitrogen Fracturing (-196℃)
■ Mechanical Polishing
■ Cryo CP (-150℃)
