Surface Area TestingPhysisorption studies fundamental parameters essential for the characterization of materials such as the specific surface area and pore size distribution. Properties such as porosity, strength, hardness, permeability, separation selectivity, corrosion, and thermal stress resistance can all be directly correlated to the porous structure of a material.ProfilometersProfilometers are instruments used to measure a surface's profile, in order to quantify etch depth, deposited film thickness, and surface roughness. They operate in either contact or non-contact modes and may use optical or stylus techniques to make the actual measurements.
