Methods of generating information about materials present in compositions and about particulates present in fluids utilizing a microscope |
摘要 |
The invention encompasses a method of generating information about materials in a composition. A reagent is utilized to dissolve portions of the composition, and thereafter is filtered through a substrate which is then scanned with a microscope using automated displacement of the substrate to obtain data about the non-dissolved portions at locations along a grid pattern. Information about the size and quantity of the non-dissolved portions of the composition is generated. The invention also encompasses a method of generating information about impurities present in a metal composition. Metallic portions of the composition are selectively dissolved relative to impurities to form a solution. The solution is filtered through a substrate which is then scanned with a microscope to obtain data about a darkness of the impurities relative to a background. The data is processed to generate information about the size, quantity and type of the impurities.
