Abstract
The handling of small, fragile microsamples for metallographic sectioning is extremely sensitive as samples are easily damaged or destroyed. The sandwich technique described encloses microsamples in a protective carrier which permits handling for preparation and sectioning. This results in greater yield and improved analysis, while requiring less skill.
