Micromeritics ASAP2020 Gas Adsoprtion Apparatus
|
| Location |
Chemistry, University of Warwick (C115) |
| Custodian |
Professor Richard Walton |
| Applications |
Measurement of surface area, pore size and shape e.g. in catalysts and bio-scaffolds, gas storage materials such as carbons, zeolites and metal organic frameworks.
Chemisorption can be used to investigate active metals dispersions or surface acidity of catalysts.
Materials with low surface areas such as powdered metals, glass fibers, and natural organic materials can also be analysed. |
| Specification |
- Automated volumetric nitrogen adsorption
- Other gases such as Argon may be used for materials with low surface areas
- Chemisorption option
- Measures surface areas from 0.001 – 3000 m2 g-1.

| Custodian |
Dr Liam Grover |
| Applications |
Determines the pore size distribution and pore volume of materials, including dental and medical materials, porous scaffolds and catalysts. Example materials include: catalysts and bio-scaffolds and gas storage materials such as carbons, zeolites and metal organic frameworks.
Chemisorption can be used to investigate active metal dispersions or surface acidity of catalysts. Materials with low surface areas such as powdered metals, glass fibers, and natural organic materials can also be analysed. |
| Specification |
- Measures surface areas from 0.001 to 3000m2 g-1
- Pore diameters from 0.003 to 360 µm
- Resolution > 0.1 µL pore size
