The invention discloses an iodoform-
epoxy resin embedding preparation method for SEM-EDS analysis of a
coalbed methane reservoir sample, and relates to the technical field of reservoir sample detection. The method comprises the following steps:
cutting, cleaning and performing low-temperature
vacuum drying on a
coalbed methane reservoir sample; adding iodoform into the
epoxy resin, and fully stirring until the iodoform is completely dissolved to form a uniform and clear
mixed solution; then adding a curing agent and stirring at a
low speed; after natural and vacuum combined defoaming, embedding and curing the sample; and finally, a flat observation surface is obtained through step-by-step mechanical
polishing and
argon ion polishing, and
sample preparation is completed after conductive treatment. According to the method, iodoform is dissolved firstly, and then the curing agent is added, so that iodoform
crystal agglomeration and bubble introduction are effectively avoided, the contrast of the
backscattered electron image is remarkably improved, the primary pores and cleat structures of the
coal rock are protected, and the EDS quantitative analysis precision is improved; the method is simple in process, controllable in process parameter, good in
repeatability, suitable for various samples such as
coal rock,
coal-containing
clastic rock and coal seam
dirt band, and capable of providing high-quality
sample preparation guarantee for coal
bed gas reservoir microcosmic characterization.
