What type or size of pore is measured ?Closed Pores Blind Pores Cross-linked Pores Through Pores
In all cases, Hg-Porosimetry measures the largest available access to a pore,the size of the “entrance” towards a pore.
Most times this is substantially smaller than the inner pore diameter!

Essentially all calculations are based on the assumption of cylinder pores.
This is a major assumption !!!

What are the basic parameters to be measured ?
• Pressure
• Intruded volume
• Contact angle, θ
• Surface tension, γ

Pressure
• Pressure transducer have to cover the entire measurement range.
(> 5 orders of magnitude !)• Use several transducer with overlapping ranges.• Avoid temperature drifts.• Avoid accidental over-range exposure.• Calibrate and check with “Standards”
