Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a replica sample extracted by a nanoscale carbide transmission electron microscope. The steps are: mechanically grinding and polishing the sample until the surface is smooth and free of scratches; into alcohol for cleaning, and then take it out for drying; wherein, the corrosion solution is a mixed solution of picric acid, bromic acid and methanol; use a vacuum coating instrument to spray a layer of carbon film on the surface of the sample; the carbon film on the surface of the sample Divided into a grid shape, electrolyzed in the electrolyte, the surface of the sample is inclined, so that the carbon film is separated from the surface of the sample; wherein, the electrolyte is a mixed solution of nitric acid, bromic acid, and absolute ethanol; The membrane was removed from the electrolyte, rinsed in alcohol, and dried on filter paper or air-dried. The carbon extraction replica sample produced by the invention has good carbon film shape and high sample preparation success rate, and is suitable for observing very small nanoscale carbides with a transmission electron microscope.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of material sample preparation, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a replica sample extracted by a nanoscale carbide transmission electron microscope. Background technique [0002] For iron and steel materials, the fine-sized carbides precipitated in steel have a strong strengthening effect and can significantly increase the strength of iron and steel materials. Studying the precipitation behavior of carbides is of great significance for the development of high-strength steel materials. [0003] Transmission electron microscopic analysis is a commonly used and effective method to study the precipitation behavior of carbides in steel. Steel samples usually used for transmission electron microscope analysis are metal flakes. The preparation method is: grind the sample into a disc sample with a thickness of 50 μm and a diameter of 3 mm, and then perforate the center of the sample by double-jet electroly...
