The tape supports and captures the section as it is being cut, eliminating the need for a brush or anti-roll device. The still frozen section, adhered to the tape is rolled onto the cold adhesive-coated slide. An ultraviolet flash converts the adhesive coating into a hard solvent-resistant plastic. Curing the Adhesive Coating A flash of ultraviolet light passes through the slide to polymerize the adhesive layer on the slide into a hard, solvent-resistant plastic, tightly anchoring the section. The tape is removed.
Several options are available.
The tape is peeled away leaving the still frozen section tightly bonded to the plastic layer. Please Wait For Slide Show 1. Transfer to Slide 4. Curing the Adhesive Coating 5. Removal of Tape 6.
