Accelerated carbonation test of concrete using gas sorption and mass spectrometry
16 Oct 2025Carbonation significantly affects concrete durability, yet traditional assessment methods are slow and resource-intensive. Understanding how moisture and pore structure influence hardened cement paste remains a key challenge for sustainability and performance.
Discover how dynamic sorption and mass spectrometry enable rapid, reproducible carbonation analysis, empowering researchers to model long-term behavior and evaluate novel cement formulations for CO₂ uptake.

Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules based on the mass-to-charge ratio of gas-phase ions. It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.
