Flow Microcalorimetry (FMC) allows the surface of a material to be analysed in ways which static calorimetry cannot match, because the flow technique determines BOTH the reversibility and the kinetics of surface interactions.
Surface Science Applications
The examples shown in the drop down menu (Corrosion, Filtration and Catalyst Acidity) illustrate how a few well known scientific topics in which surface chemical interactions have a controlling influence, can be investigated more throughly with the flow sorption microcalorimeter (FMC) than with other analytical techniques. In fact, in addition to the solution of newly evolving problems, the FMC offers the opportunity to invent and explore new approaches to old problems and thereby improve the quality of the information available about a surface phenomenon.
The figures within each paper show the heats of sorption together with the amounts of material sorbed, both of which are routinely measured during a single interaction within the Microscal FMC. The properties of surfaces can, therefore, be probed in a very refined manner from a single experiment, so making our instrument very efficient and cost–effective. To help present the diagrams more clearly, they can be magnified by left–clicking where required.
