Physical microstructure characterization
Information about:
Qualitative and quantitative 3-dimensional pore and microstructure analysis
Methods:
Microtomography:
- resolution 500 nm - 10 um, field view 1-10 mm, up to 50 samples per 8 hours
- image analysis: pore shape and size, anisotropy, spacial and radial distribution
- resolution 16 nm - 500 nm, field view 1-10 mm
- Elemental and electron density specifity
- Image analysis: pore analysis, network connectivity, phase distributions
Application fields:
Porous materials:
- Catalysts and adsorbents
- Foams (food, polymers, minerals)
- Biological materials (skeletons, wood)
Alternatives:
Hg-Porosimetry, BET surface area: only average values, no spacial information
