Mercury Porosimetry |
|
|
The porosity of a material affects its physical properties and, subsequently, its behavior in its surrounding environment. The term “porosimetry” is often used to encompass the measurements of pore size, volume, distribution, density, and other porosity-related characteristics of a material. The adsorption and permeability, strength, density, and other factors influenced by a substance’s porosity determine the manner and fashion in which it can be appropriately used. Mercury porosimetry routinely is applied over a capillary
diameter range from 0.003 to 360 µm (five orders of magnitude). This would be
equivalent to using the same tool to measure accurately and precisely both the
height of a 30-story building and the diameter of a grain of sand.
Micromeritics also provides a number of Mercury
Porosimetry Reference Materials for use in the above mentioned systems. Please
contact us for more information on which reference materials best apply to your
application and type of instrument.
