Hydrosorb™ 1000
Water Vapor Sorption Analyzer

Questions-Feedback

Water sorption behavior plays
an important role in the
manufacture and design of
many commonly encountered and
advanced materials.

Some examples include:
  • PEM fuel cell components
  • Drying and storage of grains
  • Texture and shelf life of food    products
  • Stability of pharmaceutical    excipients and drug actives
  • Mortar, grout and other   cementitious materials
  • Paper and coatings
  • Hydrophobic surface treatments
  • Microporous and nanostructured   carbons

Quantachrome's Hydrosorb™ 1000. Available in two versions according to application temperature; Standard: 12deg to 47degC, High Temperature:  12deg to 85 degC.

Example water sorption isotherm

New materials such as nanostructured carbons
yield exciting results. (CMK measured at 85 degC)


Water sorption measurement has traditionally been either slow and laborious, or costly and limited to small quantities of material. The Hydrosorb 1000 is the latest innovation in water sorption characterization and overcomes these limitations. It offers fully automated, rapid measurement of adsorption and desorption water isotherms including BET surface area calculations and heats of adsorption. Two models offer analysis temperature ranges of 12deg to 47degC or 12deg to 85degC.  Accurate water vapor dosing is made possible by using a unique, heated (100° C) manifold design. The fully integrated control system provides color real-time status, graphical data review and reporting functions via built-in color monitor and printer port. Data (ASCII format) can be uploaded to a PC via RS232 for importing into popular spreadsheet programs for further manipulation.
