Adsorption and Material Properties Lab

Our Adsorption and Material Properties Lab performs full characterization of materials such as: physi- and chemisorption, surface area determination, particle size determination and distribution, true density measurements, etc. It is useful for study of porous materials, catalysts, foams, and powders.

Anton Paar DSA 5000 M Density & sound velocity meter:

DSA 5000 M combines density and sound velocity measurements in one setup. It determines the concentration of two- and three-component solutions using the most accurate density results with the Pulsed Excitation Method.  

Automated gas sorption station Micromeritics 3Flex  3500:

The Flex family of high-performance adsorption analyzers is used to measure surface area, pore size, and pore volume of powders and particulate materials. The 3Flex is ideally suited for gas or vapor adsorption analysis of microporous (< 2nm) and mesoporous (2 to 50nm) materials and delivers superior accuracy, resolution and data reduction. A chemisorption option extends the application range of both Flex to both physical and chemical adsorption for characterizing the texture and active surface of catalysts, catalyst supports, sensors and a variety of other materials.

Automated gas sorption station Anton Paar Autosorb IQ: 

High Vacuum Physiosorption Analyzer Autosorb IQ Allows scientific analysis of surface area by Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method and distribution of micro- and mesopores by physisorption method in high vacuum. Ideal for mesoporous materials such as oxides, silicas, oxides such as minerals, ceramics.

Malvern Mastersizer 3000 Laser Diffraction Particle Size Distribution System:

The Mastersizer 3000 uses laser diffraction to measure the particle size of materials and determine the particle size distribution in the range from 0.01 to 3500 µm. The method is based on measuring the angular dependence of the scattered light intensity as laser beam passes through a dispersed sample.

AccuPyc III Gas Pycnometer SENresearch 4.0 Spectroscopic Ellipsometer:

AccuPyc III 1350 Helium Pycnometers provide fast and fully automatic data such as true and apparent (or skeletal) density and volume. The device provides high accuracy and reproducibility of results at high analysis speed.
