NEW AccuPore – the Most Advanced Capillary Flow Porometer
Introducing the new Micromeritics AccuPore Capillary Flow Porometer (CFP) – a fast, and reliable method to determine the size distribution (13nm to 500µm) of through-pores, i.e pores that span from one side of a surface of a material to the other. CFP is a non-destructive technique and an important measurement in the development or production of the sheet-goods used for membranes, separators, filtration media, technical fabrics and more.
Unlike traditional CFP systems, the AccuPore uses a compressor for low-pressure operations (bubble point measurement and large pores) and switches to high-pressure bottled gas for analysis of small pores, reducing the need for expensive high-pressure gas.
The flexible design of the AccuPore CFP makes it simple to move between a variety of sample diameters all within the same sample chamber. A selection of sample supports provide reliable measurements to the highest pressures, even for thin or weak membranes while also reducing gas consumption by up to 95%.
Gas-liquid CFP is a direct complement to mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), providing a rich description of pore architecture. The AccuPore is particularly valuable for users requiring high precision in characterising filtration efficiency or material permeability especially for optimising the design and performance of battery separators and fuel cell membranes.
