Abstract

After a short comparative analysis of the most usual bonding techniques for rock thin section preparation, a new fast and reliable bonding technique with acrylic resin is described. A new design for a U.V. translucent press necessary for both a minimun glue thickness and as a requirement for the acrylic bonding to be completed, is also presented. Tests about thin section quality, mechanical resistance of the bond, refractive index and ageing performed on different hard rocks and impregnated sediments and soils, have given excellent results.
