Compression mounting is a very useful mounting technique which can provide
better specimen edge retention compared to castable mounting resins.
Compression mounting resins are available in different colors and with various
fillers to improve hardness or conductivity (Figure 7-1). Several compression
mounting characteristics include:
• Convenient means to hold the specimen
• Provides a standard format to mount multiple specimens
• Protects edges
• Provides proper specimen orientation
• Provides the ability to label and store the specimens
