Can anyone please recommend slide mounts that are good for scanning?

What do you mean by good? Oversized full frame windows, rigid mounts that
do not bend or bow, mounts that keep the film chip flat, or something else?

To do all the things that Laurie mentioned, find some Wess full frame mounts
with pegs in them the sprocket holes fit over. This mount will show the
whole frame and will hold it very flat. I have used them in the darkroom
when masking 35mm slides. I believe that someone has bought out Wess but is
Mounts that keep the frame as flat as possible.
Thanks...

What do you
Those that keep the film chip the flattest would be glass mounts where the
film chip is sandwiched between two pieces of anti-newtonian glass; but
there is always the possibility that (a) it will be too thick for your film
scanner, (b) you will get newtonian rings despite the anti-newtonian glass,
Those that keep the film chip the flattest would be glass mounts
where the film chip is sandwiched between two pieces of anti-newtonian
glass;
Anti-Newton glass will show extra grain in the scan, because of the roughed
glass surface.
With kind regards,
