A series of commercially available cemented carbides coated with single or composite layers of TiC, TiN, and Al2O3 were used to cut three types of steel, En8 (∼AISI 1042), En24 (∼AISI 4340), and En9 (∼AISI 1055). For comparison, two uncoated cemented carbides and some Al2O3-ceramic inserts were also tested. The worn surfaces were examined using optical and scanning electron microscopy techniques and tool/work interfacial conditions were evaluated from quick-stop experiments and tool temperature estimates. By linking this information with observed wear rates, various rake and flank wear mechanisms are proposed.

Several imaging methodologies have been used in biofilm studies, contributing to deepening the knowledge on their structure. This review illustrates the most widely used microscopy techniques in biofilm investigations, focusing on traditional and innovative scanning electron microscopy techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), variable pressure SEM (VP-SEM), environmental SEM (ESEM), and the more recent ambiental SEM (ASEM), ending with the cutting edge Cryo-SEM and focused ion beam SEM (FIB SEM), highlighting the pros and cons of several methods with particular emphasis on conventional SEM and VP-SEM. As each technique has its own advantages and disadvantages, the choice of the most appropriate method must be done carefully, based on the specific aim of the study. The evaluation of the drug effects on biofilm requires imaging methods that show the most detailed ultrastructural features of the biofilm. In this kind of research, the use of scanning electron microscopy with customized protocols such as osmium tetroxide (OsO4), ruthenium red (RR), tannic acid (TA) staining, and ionic liquid (IL) treatment is unrivalled for its image quality, magnification, resolution, minimal sample loss, and actual sample structure preservation. The combined use of innovative SEM protocols and 3-D image analysis software will allow for quantitative data from SEM images to be extracted; in this way, data from images of samples that have undergone different antibiofilm treatments can be compared.

Abstract Butterflies wings possess different types of scales to perform diverse functions. Each scale has many nano and microstructures, which interferes with light, resulting in unique coloration for each butterfly. Besides coloration, the arrangement of scales further helps in giving better survivability. Thus, analysis of wing pattern provides an overall idea about adaptation and activity of the animal. The current study deciphers the structure and composition of a wing of a pierid butterfly Catopsilia pomona, which remains active at 42°C at which temperature all other butterflies face a tougher task for existence. In order to know the relation between survivability and adaptation in the wing, we have investigated the structural and physical composition of the wing of C. pomona under optical spectroscopy (absorption, reflectance and transmittance) along with microscopy techniques (optical and scanning electron microscopy), which are not described in earlier studies. The current findings reveal unique structural arrangement within scales to provide the best fit to the animal in variable temperature.

Scanning microscopy techniques have emerged as powerful scientific tools for analysing materials of architectural or archaeological interest, since the commercialization of the first scanning electron microscopy instrumentation in the early 60s. This study is aimed at reviewing and highlighting the significance of several scanning microscopy techniques employed in the protection of built heritage. The diffusion of scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis (SEM-EDX) is proven to be the widest among the available scanning microscopy techniques, while transmission electron microscopy (TEM) applications are steadily present in the field of built heritage protection. The building material characterization, the weathering mechanism investigation, and the development of compatible and performing conservation materials are some major research areas where the application of the aforementioned techniques is discussed. The range of techniques, along with aspects of instrumentation and sample preparation are, also, considered.

We are using the term "Industrial Polymers" to refer to polymers [plastics] that are produced by the ton or (in the case of films) by the mile. For example, in descending order of world-wide use (tonnage), the top eight of these polymers are polyethylene (PE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), styrene polymers (including polystyrene - PS, and acrylonitrile-butadienestyrene/ styrene-acrylonitrile - ABS/SAN), polyesters (PETP), polyurethane (PU), phenolics and aminoplastics.Industrial polymers, which have been produced by the millions of tons for the last five decades and are of obvious social and economic importance, have been exhaustively characterized. Structural features which affect physical properties and indicate process variables have been studied by many techniques other than microscopy (x-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, rheology, chromatographies, etc.). Microscopy techniques for polymer characterization have been well documented. Our motivation to apply field emission (high resolution) scanning electron microscopy to the study of polymers is: (1) The application of low voltage, high resolution SEM to biological materials is well characterized.

The influences of Fe2O3 doping on crystallization characteristics and microstructural morphology in the SiO2-Al2O3-MgO-K2O-ZrO2-F glass were investigated by using differential scanning calorimeter, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy techniques. The results indicate that the addtions of Fe2O3 shift the crystallization peaks to higher temperatures and the crystallization peaks increases in magnitude and the gap values between two crystallization peak temperatures boarden with the increment of Fe2O3 contents.The star-shaped crystals of cordietite by dendritic-manner growths are homogeneously precipitated in the rusidual glass. The mica phases, which are precipitated at interdendritic cordietite phases and formed the plate shapes at the elevated temperatures. The mica crystals grow at the expense of cordietite phases and finally form the composites of mica/cordietite uniformly distributed.

Copper tin sulphide nanoparticles have been prepared by solution growth technique at various ethylenediamine concentrations. Prepared samples have been characterized using x-ray diffraction, fourier transform infrared, Raman and scanning electron microscopy techniques. x-ray diffraction results revealed that the prepared samples are nanocrystalline in nature with tetragonal structure. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis results showed the presence of Cu-O, Sn-O and Sn-S vibrations in the wavenumber range between 450 and 620 cm-1. Vibrational symmetry of prepared samples have been analyzed using Raman spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy analysis indicated the formation of flower like nanocrystals for samples prepared at various Ethylenediamine concentrations.

The small size of many parasitic organisms requires the use of election microscopy for adequate elucidation of their structure. While both transmission and scanning electron microscopy can provide complementary results which allow considerable degree of structural correlation, each technique has its inherent limitations. Since previous studies have demonstrated that soft X-ray microscopy could be used to study parasitic protozoa and provide new information, the objective of this study was to determine whether soft X-ray microscopy could also be used to elucidate the morphology of small metazoa to complement the data obtained by other microscopy techniques.Newborn larvae, approximately 7 μm × 110 μm in size, of parasitic nematode Trichinella spiralis were used as a model system. Some of the larvae, deposited by adult females maintained in vitro, were isolated and processed for examination by transmission and scanning electron microscopy as described in our previous studies, others were fixed in 4% glutaraldehyde (Millonig's buffer) and examined in the X-ray microscope XM-1, and in the BioRad MRC 1024 confocal laser (krypton/argon) microscope of the Advanced Light Source, Berkeley National Laboratory.
