AN505 Polymer Cross-Section Preparation and Analysis Application with Drug Delivery Particles

AN505 Polymer Cross-Section Preparation and Analysis Application with Drug Delivery Particles

Illustrates the preparation of polymer specimens for cross-sectional analysis. Polymer drug delivery particles were embedded and cross-sectioned for transmission FTIR spectroscopy and EDS-SEM. The application note also shows how to extend these methods to the preparation of other soft materials including coatings, thin films and fibers.
