K-kit components for liquid TEM
K-kits are sample holders designed to facilitate convenient TEM observation of liquid samples, allowing nano objects, aggregates, and agglomerates (NOAAs) in liquid samples to be characterised.
With vacuum compatible sealing of liquids in electron-transmitting thickness, K-kits are micro reaction chambers for countless experiments in materials, chemical, and biological research.
K-kit components available:
- The K-kit Tool box houses a full tool set, including K-kit holder, Sample Loading Stage, Needle Pen, Gluing Stand, Channel Opener, Sealing Glue, Mounting Glue, Glass Slides, 4/pk of K-kits, Shipping Box (empty), and some replacement parts. Also available with everything except the K-kits.
- The K-kit Holder consists of an anodised aluminium header and a stainless steel handle. The K-kit carrier fits on the header (after removing the bottom compartment). When the notch on the side of the header fits over the horizontal bar on the Loading Stage (see below), the K-kit on the carrier attached on the header will be just above the liquid sample.
- The Loading Stage consists of an anodised aluminium body. It has a horizontal bar in a recess on the side and a hole in the middle to house the Liquid Stage, which is a removable stainless steel rod. The removable design is for easy cleaning. The horizontal bar defines the rotational axis for the K-kit Holder, which has a notch on the header to fit on the horizontal bar.
- The Needle Pen is designed to facilitate the K-kit gluing operation. It has a thin needle 3.0 mm long and 0.27 mm in diameter. The thin needle makes it convenient to pick just enough glue (of the order of 0.1µl(x)) for sealing the channel openings and (around 1µl(x)) for mounting the copper grid. The needle is made of stainless steel. It is strong, yet slightly flexible, suitable for the job.
- The Gluing Stand has a stainless steel base and an anodised aluminium header, which is much like the header on the K-kit holder, without the notch on the side. The Gluing Stand keeps the K-kit carrier in place for gluing work.
- The Accessory Box contains essential kits and spare parts for the K-kit tool box. Includes sealing and mounting glues, stirring sticks, channel opener, spare needle for needle pen, liquid stages for sample loading stage and an Allen key for the needle pen.
- The Starter Box contains all of the essentials for K-kit loading. It consists of sealing and mounting glues, stirring sticks, gluing needles and a channel opener.
- The Glue Box contains sealing and mounting glues and stirring sticks.
- The Channel Opener is used to remove the channel tips, while the K-kit stays on the carrier. It's made of anodised aluminium with a cut-off slot design at one end.
- Copper grids, 10 pieces of Copper Grid per pack.
- Slide-glass pack, 6 glass slides per pack.
