Dynamic Chemisorption Analyzer_Autochem 2920

Autochem II 2920 Dynamic Chemisorption Analyzer is an automated catalyst characterization system that is capable of preparing and analyzing samples at atmospheric and at temperatures from -100 to 1100 degC. The instrument enables obtaining valuable information about the physical properties of catalysts, catalyst support, and a variety of other materials. Researchers can investigate active metal surface area, surface acidity, distribution and strength of active sites, BET surface area, and more. The AutoChem II performs pulse chemisorption, temperature programmed reduction (TPR), desorption (TPD), oxidation (TPO), and reaction analyses.
Mass spectrometer port and software integration allows virtually simultaneous detection on both the thermal conductivity detector and mass spectrometer.
Vapor Generator permits analysis using vaporized liquids in an inert carrier stream.
Sample - solids, powders or polymers. Quantity to be discussed with lab scientists.

MicroTOF II

The micro Time-of-Flight (TOF)-MS instrument is a high resolution (10,000) Mass spectrometer. It is capable of measuring accurate masses of a variety of compounds from small (standard mass range: 50-3000 amu) to large molecules (extended mass range: 3000-20000 amu). The micrOTOF is the perfect choice for straight-forward formula determination of unknown compounds. This MicroToF is equipped with an ESI source. This instrument is primarily used to obtain molecular weight information on synthetic products.
