PYC-G100A-BSL

PMI's Automated Gas Pycnometer is used to determine the true volume and true density of powders and bulk solids using high-precision volume measurements and density calculations. The true volume of a solid is calculated from the measured drop in pressure when a known amount of gas expands into a chamber containing the sample.

PYC-G100A-BSL

Overview

PMI's Automated Gas Pycnometer is used to determine the true volume and true density of powders and bulk solids using high-precision volume measurements and density calculations. The true volume of a solid is calculated from the measured drop in pressure when a known amount of gas expands into a chamber containing the sample. Thus, the true volume obtained by pycnometry includes any pore volume accessible to the gas. The Gas Pycnometer measures the true volume and density of solid powders such as calcined petroleum coke.
