Unsuited materials for scans
Heavy metals like lead, copper, etc. *Depends on thickness

Those with large atomic numbers in the periodic table are less likely to have the enough x-ray penetration, which makes it unsuitable for CT scanning.
Refer to the atomic number of the near material for the composite material.

Materials Penetration thickness Atomic number
Resin / Plastics 150mm Smaller than 13
Aluminum Up to 100mm 13
Iron 10mm 26
Heavy metals Under 5mm Copper (29), Zinc (30), Silver (47), Gold (79), etc.

*Thickness stands for the total thickness of the work.
*CT scans are available with larger objects with the cavity (inside space).
Example: For a pipe with a wall thickness of 5 mm, thickness is 10 mm.
(Not calculate the cavity)

Unsuited works for scans
Observation spot is less than 0.1mm

Targets smaller than the pixel size result with unclear outline when scanned, which makes it unsuitable for CT scanning.
Please refer to the below example and pixel sizes.

Ex: Circuit board

Scanned image with partial mode

Pixel size
Partial scan 0.068mm
Normal scan 0.136mm
Offset scan 0.205mm
