Phenolic Compression Mounting Compound
What This Product Is
A phenolic hot compression mounting compound — a thermosetting powder that is cured under heat and pressure in a mounting press to encapsulate a specimen in a rigid, handleable mount. Phenolic is the economical, general-purpose choice for routine mounting, and the color options (black, green, red) make it easy to identify and sort samples.
Intended Use in Metallography
Used at the mounting step , after sectioning and before grinding, to hold a specimen at a consistent size and shape for automated or manual preparation. Selected when:
- Routine, cost-effective mounting is the goal
- Color-coding samples by type or batch is useful
- A rigid, opaque mount is acceptable for the work
Typical Applications
- General metallographic specimens
- Production, QC, and teaching labs
- Routine failure-analysis and materials-analysis mounts
