BET (B.E.T.) surface area summary

B.E.T. surface area (BET surface area) is an important property for many types of advanced materials such as nanomaterials, pharmaceutical materials, powder metallurgy materials, battery active materials, fibers, pigments, thermal spray powders, minerals, and additives.    B.E.T. (or BET) stands for Brunauer, Emmett, and Teller, the three scientists who optimized the theory for measuring surface area.   Clear Science has the capability to measure surface area by the BET method and the Langmuir surface area method.   In addition, the BET surface area instrument can also be used to determine other information such as gas uptake, micropore volume (t-plot method), and pore size distribution via adsorption and desorption isotherms.  For more information visit the Clear Science Powdered Materials Analysis  page.
