Thermogravimetry is a key technique to characterize VOC sorption. However, the analysis of VOC remains a challenge in view of their high boiling temperature and their reactivity. In this context, the SETSYS Evolution has been adapted for the assessment of sorption capacities and kinetics of a couple adsorbent/ vapour from vacuum to atmospheric pressure. In this webinar, we will explore this new equipment through different applications.
Note: For those that experienced difficulties with a WEBEX log in window in French in the past, please note that a short procedure for switching language to English will be provided with your registration confirmation.
After quickly introducing each technique, the presentation will focus on examples illustrating the different solutions to the different characterization challenges.
The webinar will be valuable for the researcher or engineers interested in characterizing CATALYSTS, ADSORBENTS, POROUS MATERIALS.
This webinar will give the attendees an insight into what thermal analysis and calorimetry provide to the characterization of batteries and battery materials. The topics of thermal stability of the materials, thermal management within the batteries, and more generally the production of data for the thermal safety characterization of the batteries will be covered. Typical experimental data will be presented.
The language of this webinar will be English. A live question and answer session will take place at the end of the event.

High pressure calorimetry is a widespread technique for the characterization of materials and their reactions under process-like conditions for many applications. For example, the energy industry use it for gas hydrates formation / dissociation studies in the context of flow assurance or energy storage. The process safety field use it to produce thermodynamic data at the laboratory scale that can be used to design safe production processes.
After quickly introducing the calorimeters range of SETARAM Instrumentation, the presentation will focus on new high pressure cells with the capability of mechanically stirring the measured sample or reaction medium. As it will be showed with examples, this new type of cells solves a number of limitations of the currently available technologies. They have been developed and patented by the University of Pau and Pays de l’Adour, and licensed to SETARAM Instrumentation for their industrialization.
The webinar will be valuable for the researcher or engineers interested in high pressure calorimetry.

We will also introduce its combination with techniques such as gamma spectrometry as it can be implemented in complete solutions for nuclear fuel or waste characterization using automated systems.
This webinar series in two parts concerns the characterization of gas sorption processes. This first session will focus more particularly on Manometry, the Sievert’s technique, and how it is applied by the instrument PCTPro. Details about the instrument, including the types of sample holders and possible measurements will be introduced. Examples of use of sorption isotherms for the evaluation of sorption capacity and selectivity of several materials including zeolites, MOFs and polymers will be presented. Coupling of PCTPro with calorimetry will be introduced and illustrated by an example of characterization of CO2 sorption by mesoporous silica materials.
Note: the language of this webinar will be English. A live question and answer session will take place at the end of the event.
