Cold-Setting Resins

– The Kemet range of cold mounting resins includes acrylic and epoxy solutions.

– Cold mounting systems are particularly useful for delicate specimens that will not withstand the heat and pressure from a Hot Mounting press, and are also a good way of producing high volumes of mounted samples since 1 mix can produce many samples.
