Micromeritics 3Flex Porosimeter

Instrument URL: 
More details about this Instrument
The Micromeritics 3Flex provides fast and accurate measurements of a materials pore and surface properties. It can be configured for macropore, mesopore and micropore analyses.
 
With easy to learn software, designing a measurement is simple and testing runs can be automated.
 
The instrument is capable of measuring three powder samples simultaneously, using nitrogen and helium gas for analysis. Liquid nitrogen is used for the cryogen.
 
Several pre-configured options are offered for data interpretation. Reports can be generated for:
  • Alpha-S
  • BJH Adsorption / Desorption
  • DFT Pore Size
  • DFT Surface Energy
  • Dollimore-Heal Adsorption / Desorption
  • Dubinin Pore Volume
  • f-Ratio

Access Procedure: 

All instruments are available for responsible users to test their own samples. Training is offered quarterly for the more complex instruments and users may self train on the other instruments any time. More information

There are specific insurance and liability requirements for off-campus facility users. They are described at this link: Non-UCSB Use of MRL Facilities

All people working in the TEMPO lab are required to follow good practice and to have already attended the UCSB EH&S Laboratory Safety Training. Contact Amanda Strom or 805-893-7925 for more information.
