Nitrogen Adsorption for Pore Analysis

Nitrogen adsorption and desorption are used to measure the surface area and pore size distribution of a porous solid. These two properties help show how well a material can adsorb molecules or support catalytic activity.

For adsorbent and catalyst manufacturers, surface area and pore size distrib...

Porosimetry is a technique to measure the surface areas and pore sizes of porous solids. It is commonly used in materials science. For instance, in ceramic manufacture, the surface of both precursor powders and finished pieces exert a strong influence on physical properties. Porosimetry is also useful in chemical engineering. Supported heterogen...
