Vapour Sorption Analyser Released in Australia and New Zealand | September 14th, 2007 |
Scientific Solutions is the exclusive distributor in Australia and New Zealand for Quantachrome Instruments from Florida, USA. They have developed the world's leading Surface Area and Pore Size instruments. Hydrosorb™ 1000 Water Vapour Sorption Analyser
Water sorption behaviour plays an important role in the manufacture and design of many commonly encountered and advanced materials. Some examples include:
Water sorption measurement has traditionally been either slow and laborious, or costly and limited to small quantities of material. The Hydrosorb 1000 is the latest innovation in water sorption characterization and overcomes these limitations. It offers fully automated, rapid measurement of adsorption and desorption water isotherms including BET surface area calculations and heats of adsorption at a price which is just a fraction of the alternative gravimetric methods. Two models offer analysis temperature ranges of 12deg to 47degC or 12deg to 85degC. Accurate water vapour dosing is made possible by using a unique, heated (100° C) manifold design. The fully integrated control system provides colour real-time status, graphical data review and reporting functions via built-in colour monitor and printer port. Data (ASCII format) can be uploaded to a PC via RS232 for importing into popular spreadsheet programs for further manipulation.
Scientific Solutions are the Surface Science instrumentation specialists with a wealth of experience in supplying solutions for research and development and industrial measurement requirements. For more information, contact: | |
