The document discusses the use of desktop scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) for analyzing various materials and applications such as batteries, metals, powders, and electronics. It notes that desktop SEMs provide ease of use, high performance, and faster analysis compared to traditional room-sized SEMs. Specific applications mentioned include battery material quality control, inclusion analysis in steel, additive manufacturing powder characterization, gunshot residue analysis, and assessing technical cleanliness in electronics.

Inclusion analysis by SEM/EDX is on
its way to become the new standard.
Where metallurgists would use a
room-filling SEM in the past, many
now chose a desktop SEM for ease
of use and high performance.

Characterizing a powder for additive
manufacturing, be it for the
incoming quality acceptance test or
for recycling purposes, is a difficult
multi-step process. Information
about the powder granulometry and
chemical composition are critical to
the print quality and an electron
microscope can provide you both at
the same time!

The complexity of PCB has reached
levels where even working in high
grade cleanrooms might not be
sufficient to guarantee a high-quality
product. Lose microparticulate can
have several sources and
irreversibly compromise the quality
of the manufactured products.
NCM powders represent about 40%
of the cost of batteries raw
materials, largely due to the price of
cobalt. The demand for proof that
such expensive powders are
responding to purity criteria is
growing, especially because of the
fire hazard represented by
conductive particles.
