Capillary Flow Porometry (CFP)

Capillary Flow Porometry (CFP)

This is a technique used to evaluate the through-pore size distribution and permeability characteristics of a variety of materials.

Applications:
· membrane-MF/UF/NF
· filtration media
· ceramics
· synthetic polymers
· hollow fiber
· textiles

The instrument we utilize can probe through pores ranging in sizes from 0.013 to 500 µm with standards ASTM F316-03 for capillary flow porometry as referenced by the instrument manufacturer.

Test Result:
· Bubble point / Mean flow pore diameter / Smallest Pore Diameter
· Flow rate vs Pressure
· Cumulative & Differential Filter Flow%
· Pore size distribution vs Diameter
· Pore size distribution & Cumulative Filter Flow
· % Cumulative filter flow vs Diameter
· Gas permeability / Darcy’s Law
· Frequency distribution & Cumulative Filter Flow
