Accurate
to 0.1% of bubble point
Direct, reliable, versatile through-pore measurements made simple, from R&D to QC.
By measuring true through pores directly, without curve fitting or model assumptions, AccuPore delivers reproducible pore size distributions, accurate bubble point values, and meaningful mean flow pore sizes that translate directly to real-world performance in the right timescales.
Its flexible pressure ramp and step modes allow researchers to rapidly screen new materials during development, while the same robust, standardized measurements ensure consistent, audit-ready quality control of membranes, filters, and separators in routine manufacturing environments.
Key features and benefits
アプリケーション
Battery materials
The density of battery cathode and anode materials is directly related to their porosity, which affects the amount of energy that can be stored per unit volume. Density is also an effective indicator of the purity and composition of the electrode materials, which is crucial for increasing battery capacity.
医薬品
Monitor and control composition of API’s and excipients by measurement of product density. Differences in polymorphic, hydrated, and amorphous forms of products, as well as purity, can be detected through density measurements.
Metal powders
Track the purity of raw materials through density measurement. Detect the presence of occluded porosity developed during sintering processes that impact final product strength.
コーティング
Determine total solids content of liquid coatings to predict coverage. Monitor density of dry pigments and powder coatings to verify composition. Detect density differences in cast films that indicate changes in crystallinity and mechanical performance.
鉱業
Determine total pore volume and porosity of core samples to quantify total storage capacity. Quickly assess the composition of the solids used in drilling fluids.
触媒
Determine correct composition of catalyst supports and finished products including crystallinity, porosity, and formulation.
Polymers and composites
Determine the ratio of open and closed cell foams, which impacts heat transfer, gas transport, sound damping, mechanical energy dissipation, and buoyancy. Differentiate relative amounts of crystalline and amorphous phases of thermoplastic polymers. Design and produce composite materials with precise control of fiber loading, void content, mixing uniformity, and fiber impregnation.
Versatility
Load any sample and get reliable data - no complex setup required.
Measure 13mm, 25mm, and 47mm-diameter samples within the same sample chamber, with no need for fixture swaps or recalibration. From delicate membranes to high strength separators, R&D to QC, AccuPore handles it all without needing expert-level setup or method development.

よくあるご質問
Porometry and porosimetry are two different methods for analyzing porous materials. Porometry identifies through-pore diameters and flow traits like bubble point and permeability, whereas porosimetry (particularly mercury intrusion) measures total pore volume, density, and the size distribution of all connected pores.
Distinct in their approach, porometry characterizes through-pore size distribution and flow properties, whereas porosimetry (mercury intrusion) evaluates the total volume, density, and size distribution across all connected pores.
- Accurate, repeatable and direct measurements of bubble point and largest pore size
- Best resolution of through-pore size distribution, with greatest sensitivity for smallest pores
- Flexible by design: Smart switch of gas supply for the widest dynamic pressure range in a single instrument. AccuPore handles diverse sample types and sizes, and it also allows customizable test routines

Porosity and pore size distribution describe different but complementary properties of a porous material. Porosity refers to the total amount of empty space within the material, usually expressed as a percentage, indicating how much fluid or gas it can hold overall. In contrast, pore size distribution describes the range and frequency of pore sizes present, showing whether the material has mostly small, large, or a mix of pores and how they are spread. While porosity tells you how much void space exists, pore size distribution tells you how that space is structured, which is crucial for determining how fluids flow through the material and what particle sizes can be filtered.
