Coatings – GAT Scientific http://staging.gatscientific.com Preferred Tools for Material Characterization Tue, 05 May 2020 14:40:48 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.2 HPVA II http://staging.gatscientific.com/product/hpva-ii/ Tue, 05 May 2020 14:14:37 +0000 /?post_type=product&p=1017

This process is repeated at given pressure intervals until the maximum preselected pressure is reached. Then the pressure can be decreased to provide a desorption isotherm. Each of the resulting equilibrium points [volume adsorbed and equilibrium pressure] is plotted to provide an isotherm.

Excellent reproducibility and accuracy are obtained by using separate transducers for monitoring low and high pressures.
