One major aspect that differentiates SEM/EDX analysis from conventional oil analysis is that particles must be free of oil for analysis to take place. This means that the particles being analyzed should not have any oil coating on their surface, as it can interfere with the accurate analysis of their composition. By ensuring that particles are free of oil, SEM/EDX analysis can provide reliable results concerning the condition of equipment and components.
