Abstract:
With increased demands in today's ever-changing industrial landscape where crucial decisions are based on experimental data, extra care is needed to achieve reproducible, relevant results. Gas sorption includes physisorption and chemisorption techniques where BET surface area, pore size distribution, pore volume and hysteresis loop analyses provides valuable insight on material properties. Gas sorption experiments on complex materials (powders, zeolites, MOFs, carbons) require careful sample preperation, adsorbent gas and sample cell selection and data analysis. Best practices for gas sorption analyses will be presented which will help prevent operator errors, provide reproducible data, and permit efficient evaluation of sample data.
