This method has the disadvantage that it may not be possible to distinguish it from existing voids, which reduces the reliability of measurement. Furthermore, the particle size, major axis, minor axis, etc. of the dispersed system to be measured are the size of part 1 exposed on the surface of the sample and the size of part 1 hidden inside, as shown in Figure 6 (a) and (b). There were problems such as it did not indicate the size of part 2.
