Introduction To Ideal Adsorbed Solution Theory In Microactive:Predicting Multicomponent Adsorption

IntroductionWith the release of the MicroActive V6.0 and the 3Flex V6.0 software, multicomponentadsorption predictions using ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST) have been added. IAST is apredictive technique developed by Myers and Prausnitz in 1965. It is used to predict mixed gasadsorption behavior from single component isotherms. This first release of IAST on V6.0 canbe used […]

Breakthrough Adsorption: Theory and Analysis of Adsorption in Zeolites and Metal-organic Frameworks (MOFs)

Breakthrough is the measurement of changing concentration versus time at the outlet of an adsorption column. Breakthrough allows users to assess their adsorbent media and calculate the quantity of gas, or vapor, adsorbed by an adsorbent under dynamic flow. Breakthrough has applications in separations, adsorption, pressure swing adsorption, and temperature swing adsorption. Breakthrough offers several […]

Building Robust Pharma Physical Properties Analysis

Broaden your understanding of solid form analysis. Traditionally a limited number of techniques have been used for physical properties analysis. Now, the opposite is becoming the issue, there are a multitude of good and reliable techniques, that can enrich solid form analysis. By looking at examples of porosity, surface area and powder flow analyses, we […]

Carbons, Zeolites and Molecular Sieves: Material Characteristics and Solutions for Characterization

Material characteristics and solutions for characterization. Activated and porous carbons along with zeolites and molecular sieves largely owe their industrial value to the ability to control the rate of transport of different molecules. This characteristic gives rise to a broad range of applications in gas separation, catalysis, the selective adsorption of pollutants and ion exchange. […]

Gas Sorption Characterization of Metal Organic Frameworks

Are you involved in Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for sorption applications? MOFs are candidates for many sorption applications due to their advantages of controllable chemical functionality, as well as ordered structure defined by virtually infinite combination of metal cluster and organic linker. Listen to Dr. Katharina Peikert, Technical Application Consultant with Micromeritics, speak about best practices […]

Direct Air Capture (DAC) of CO2 & the Important Role of Porous Materials in DAC Technology

Most current climate models suggest that limiting warming to less than 2°C will require large scale deployment of negative emissions technologies (NETs). NETs, which remove CO2 from the atmosphere, are projected to be needed at a scale of 10 Gt/y by 2050, yet today, virtually none of been deployed. NETs may be natural or technological, […]

Sample Preparation and the Impact on Results

Sample preparation is an often-overlooked part of the material analysis process, never-the-less it is critical to achieving consistent and high-quality results. Improper sample preparation can lead to poor results or even damage process equipment. This webinar will discuss the importance of sample preparation and different methods for activating samples. Emphasis will be placed on activating […]

Smart and Programmable Sponges from Design and Synthesis to Implementation

Join our guest speaker Dr Omar Farha, Associate Professor of Chemistry at Northwestern University, where he will focus on metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) from basic research to implementation and commercialization. MOFs are a class of porous, crystalline materials composed of metal-based nodes and organic ligands that self-assemble into multi-dimensional lattices. In contrast to conventional porous materials […]

Texture of Heterogenous Catalysts Webinar: Surface Area and Porosity

Why is heterogeneous catalysis important? How does it enable faster, large-scale production and selective product formation? Listen to what Dr Luca Lucarelli, Technology Application Consultant with Micromeritics and highly experienced in the field of catalyst characterization, has to say about key techniques in catalysts characterization. See how basic characterization of catalysts is of fundamental importance […]

Understanding Surface Area Measurements Webinar

Do you understand the surface area of your powdered raw material? Do you know that it critically contributes to the quality of your manufacturing process? Surface area provides information about the amount of surface available to interact with binders which can offer a prediction of how the powder will behave which results in improved finished […]
