IGA 002

 Single Component Gas and Vapor Sorption Analyzer

The IGA design integrates precise computer-control and measurement of mass change, pressure and temperature to enable fully automatic and reproducible determination of gas and vapor sorption-desorption isotherms and isobars in diverse operating conditions.

Anti-condensation protection to 50 ºC is incorporated in the IGA-002, which allows operation with water and an extensive range of hydrocarbon vapors. Additionally, a range of sample environment options are available to allow operation at temperatures from -196 to 1000 °C and at pressures ranging from ultra-high vacuum to 20 bar. The IGA-002 has been used to study water and hydrocarbon vapor sorption on a wide range of materials, including pharmaceuticals, carbons, catalysts, zeolites, clays and polymers.
