Very good start 2012

QUANTACHROME started the year 2012 with lots of momentum and discharges the order backlog of the year end with great commitment.
Oders for analyzers came in the last few months from universities and institutes in Geneve, Luxembourg, Vienna, Innsbruck, Northwest Switzerland, Copenhagen, Szeged or Zuerich and many industrial customers in Belgium, The Netherlands, Hungary, Austria, Switzerland and other European countries in the fields of adsorbents, food and beverages, filters and membranes, catalysts and others.

We would like to thank all new costumers for your confidence and we look forward to good cooperation in 2012. 
Shortly you will find new measuring methods of Quantachrome and a flyer for our 2012 seminars in Belgium and the Netherlands on that homepage!

QUANTACHROME cooperates with GEOCHEM
 
Dr. Dietmar Klank, QUANTACHROME, and Dr. Ferenc Fedor, GEOCHEM Ltd., Ungarn, signed a cooperation agreement between both companies. GEOCHEM is user of QUANTACHROME-analyzers AUTOSORB-1-MP, POREMASTER 60 GT and PENTAPYC 5200eT and develops on its own analyzers for testing geological samples at high temperatures and pressures. In the future GEOCHEM supports QUANTACHROME on the Hungarian market and more generally in geological tasks. In return, QUANTACHROME and the LabSPA (Laboratory for Scientific Particle Analysis) offer permeability measurements up to 320 bar void pressure and up to 150°C as service as of now. In addition the universal permeameter RS-PPD-1 of GEOCHEM is provided by QUANTACHROME.

QUANTACHROME at final spurt to the end of the year 2011

QUANTACHROME further extends its outstanding position in the area of characterization of dispersions, powders und porous solids :

- The POWTECH 2011 results in many interesting new contacts and dialogues with costumers...

- Our three day training seminar in Vienna was excellently attended on all days; atmosphere, catering, weather and expert discussions were particularly affirmative...

- The LabSPA (Laboratory for Scientific Particle Analysis) further develops continuously and integrated the new analyzers for particle size and shape measurements of OCCHIO into the test and contract analysis.

Shortly you will read here more about other new measuring methods....!!

QUANTACHROME at POWTECH in Nuremberg, hall 9, stand 502
 
The characterization of dispersions, powders and porous solids is under discussion on the stand 9-502 of Quantachrome at the POWTECH in Nuremberg from 11th to 13th October 2011. Our specialists are at your disposal with several analyzers and our experiences in particle, surface an pore measurement technology. Gladly we talk with you about questions concerning particle size (as well nanoparticles), particle shape, BET-surface, pore analysis (as well porometry for filter pores), zetapotential, dispersion stability, microrheology, drying behaviour of dispersions, water absorption behaviour, density, chemisorption...

Neu!!! OCCHIO SCAN600 for analysis  of textures, particles and pores  up to  20 cm
 
Newly developed OCCHIO SCAN600 realises automatic image analysis and its interpretation of textures, particles and pores up to a size of 20 cm! The LabSPA (Laboratory for Scientific Particle Analysis) even answers very special questions: Are you interested in the pore size distribution of bread or foam, the particle shape analysis of plant parts or fibres or do you possibly have very special particle or pore textures for examination? By dint of the high-performance scanner of OCCHIO in combination with the image analysis software Callisto of OCCHIO it is worth a try to talk with us about your particular tasks...

Dr. Jare Lohmeier from QUANTACHROME with paper at the ACIN 2011

Dr. Jare Lohmeier from QUANTACHROME will present the paper S. J. Lohmeier, P. Behrens (both Germany) and R. E. Morris (UK) “Phase selectivity in ionothermal zeotype synthesis by using anionic mixed ionic liquids” at the International Symposium on Advanced Complex Inorganic Nanomaterials (ACIN) from September 11 – 14 in Namur, Belgium. Jare Lohmeier has characterized his synthesized porous materials with gas adsorption of different adsorptives both with the QUANTACHROME AUTOSORB-1-MP and the AUTOSORB-3B-MP at the University Hannover, group of Prof. Behrens.

QUANTACHROME is main sponsor of COPS IX

QUANTACHROME Instruments participates in IX International Symposium on Characterisation of porous solids - COPS IX - as main sponsor and exhibitor, and with contributions from chief scientist. Quantachrome's Director of Applied Science, Dr. Matthias Thommes, will not only present an important status report on the new IUPAC taskgroup on physisorption of gases, but is also co-author of a further two oral presentations, co-author of three poster presentations, and will chair one of the symposium sessions. Dr. Andrei Dukhin, DISPERSION TECHNOLOGY, will speak about „A novel method for pore size and porosity analysis of meso- and macroporous solids using electroacoustics”, a new method which is actually in test in our Laboratory for Scientific Particle Analysis – LabSPA – to measure porosity of solids.
