Micromeritics 3Flex high performance gas adsorption system
Micromeritics and Fraunhofer ICT announce a technical collaboration to accelerate the development of novel materials critical for Cleantech applications.
Spectris plc (LSE:SXS)
As part of this collaboration, the Micromeritics 3Flex high-performance adsorption analyzer will be installed in the Advanced Electrochemistry Lab in Pfinztal, near Karlsruhe. This state-of-the-art research instrument can perform physisorption, chemisorption, dynamic chemisorption, and pulse chemisorption, delivering crucial data for catalysts and particulate material development across the Cleantech value chain.
Micromeritics is committed to educating scientists and engineers in Germany and worldwide by providing training programs that will equip them with the expertise to effectively use our advanced characterization instruments. Our goal is to empower researchers to explore new methods and applications, ultimately driving innovation and progress in Cleantech industries.
Julia Melke, Ph.D., Fraunhofer ICT’s Group Leader for Electrolysis and Electrosynthesis, said: “Sorption studies are essential for the development of electrocatalysts as they require a deep understanding of the interaction between structure, electrochemical activity and stability.”
Christian Teicht, Ph.D., Fraunhofer ICT´s Scientist for Sorption technologies, added: “The new instrument will enable us to investigate sorbents for thermochemical heat storage systems with high accuracy. These measurements will be a starting point for the development of new sorption-based thermochemical heat storage systems. Personally, I will also use this instrument to continue my work on the modified potential theory of adsorption, which I started as one of the topics of my PhD thesis.”
Jeff Hrivnak, Ph.D., Director of Market Development at Malvern Panalytical, said: “The Fraunhofer ICT Advanced Electrochemistry Lab is pioneering the development of advanced materials for electrolysis, fuel cells, and batteries, driving exciting innovations. We are delighted to enhance their innovative efforts with our advanced high-performance systems and look forward to a partnership that educates future scientists and engineers in the field of electrochemistry.”
