Instrument designed to determine:
Specific surface area (BET)
Uses physical gas adsorption techniques (usually N₂ at 77 K) to quantify the available surface area in solid materials, applying the BET (Brunauer–Emmett–Teller) method.
Pore size distribution (BJH, DFT)
- Total pore volume
- Average pore diameter
- Adsorption/desorption isotherms
Applications
- Catalysts and catalytic supports.
- Activated carbons and MOFs.
- Zeolites and porous materials.
- Ceramic powders.
- Nanomaterials.
- Adsorbents for gas separation and capture.
