Mercury Porosimeter

Mercury Intrusion / Extrusion

Location: TVT, Egerlandstr. 3a, 91058 Erlangen, Room 00.010

The mercury porosimeter allows for the measurement of mercury intrusion and extrusion curves on porous materials in a pressure range from vacuum up to 60,000 psi for the determination of pore size and volume distributions of meso and macroporous materials with pores of approx. 5 nm up to 400 µm.

The mercury porosimeter allows for the measurement of mercury intrusion and extrusion curves on porous materials in a pressure range from vacuum up to 60,000 psi for the determination of pore size and volume distributions of meso and macroporous materials with pores of approx. 5 nm up to 400 µm. The device consists of a low pressure station (0 – 50 psi) and a high pressure station (50 – 60,000 psi).

  • Pressure range: vacuum – 60,000 psi
  • Pore size range: approx. 5 nm – 400 µm
