Effects of heat generated during cross-sectional ion milling (CP) processing.

アイテス
This is a case study that compares the methods for cross-section preparation on the surface coating layer of a golf ball and observes the effects of heat from CP processing. There are two layers of coating on the outermost layer of the cover layer, and a comparison of cross-section preparation methods was conducted using this coating layer. SEM observations of the cross-sections prepared by three different methods were performed. While cross-section preparation of soft materials is effectively done using cross-section ion milling (CP), the physical properties may change due to the heat generated during CP processing. In such cases, cross-section preparation using cryo-CP, which mitigates the effects of processing heat through cooling, is effective. 【Cross-section preparation methods】 ■ Mechanical polishing ■ CP ■ Cryo-CP (-50℃)
