3FLEX 3500 from Micromeritics Instrument Corporation, USA is recognized as one of the most advanced instrument in the field for material surface characterization. It is a fully automated 3-port (with 2-Micropore ports and 1-Mesopore port) gas adsorption analyzer for providing high-resolution adsorption, desorption, isotherms to advance and validate fundamental understanding into the development of methodologies and process improvements.
The key features of GSA includes:
-
Minimum Measurable Surface Area Range:0.01 m2/g
Pore Diameter Range:3.5 - 5000 Å
Micropore Volume: Detectable within 0.0001 cc/g
Analysis Range:1.3 × 10-9 - 1.0 P/P0
Ultimate Vacuum: 3.75 × 10-10 mmHg
The instrument is capable of carrying out the following analyses:
Single-point BET surface area
Multi-point BET surface area
Pore volume and pore diameter analysis
Adsorption/Desorption isotherms
