Micromeritics AutoPore V Model 9620 Credit: Micromeritics
Overview
- Four low pressure ports
- Two high pressure ports (60,000 psi)
- Pore structure analysis is more rapid by MIP than by gas adsorption
- Measurements can occur in 30 to 60 minutes
- Pore size diameters can be measured between 0.003 and 360 microns
- Measurements include pore volume, pore area, material density and percent porosity
Sample Requirements
- Sample size is dependent on porosity
- Maximum size is a cylinder 2.5 cm in diameter by 2.5 cm long
- The sample must be rigid enough to prevent collapsing in high pressure
- Sample must fit in appropriate penetrometer
Applications
- Ceramics, absorbents, catalysts, paper, medical implants, fuel cells, geosciences, filtration, medical implants, aerospace, electronics and construction materials
