Contact Porosimetry.com
Porosimetry.com handles inquiries by email. There is no online form — a short, structured email gets a faster and more accurate response than a generic web-form submission, and avoids the spam, deliverability, and data-handling issues that come with hosting a contact form on a static site.
All inquiries — technical questions, corrections, and general feedback — go to the same address. Replies are sent from the same mailbox. Response time depends on the complexity of the question and is typically within a few business days.
What this address is for
- Method-selection questions — "should I use MIP or gas adsorption for this material?", "is argon worth it over nitrogen for sub-1 nm pores?", and similar.
- Sample-preparation questions — degassing temperatures, handling hygroscopic powders, choosing wetting fluids for capillary flow porometry.
- Data-interpretation questions — identifying the IUPAC isotherm type, diagnosing the ink-bottle effect, deciding between BJH and DFT for mesopore analysis, validating that the BET equation is being used in a sensible P/P₀ range.
- Site corrections — if a number, equation, or standard reference looks wrong, please flag it.
What this address is not for
- Commercial laboratory bookings. Porosimetry.com is an editorial site, not a testing lab. Sample-testing engagements should be addressed to an accredited analytical laboratory directly.
- Instrument quotations. For instrument purchases, the relevant manufacturer's sales team is the right contact.
- Press, marketing, or partnership solicitations. The site does not run sponsored content or paid placements.
- Urgent or safety-critical questions. Information here is general reference material; binding decisions should rely on accredited testing and qualified specialists.
How to write a useful inquiry
The most informative messages cover four points:
- Material class — ceramic, polymer or polymer membrane, metal or alloy, geological core, pharmaceutical excipient or tablet, catalyst or catalyst support, cementitious material, MOF or zeolite, battery electrode or separator.
- Expected pore size range — micropore (< 2 nm), mesopore (2–50 nm), macropore (50 nm to ~1 mm), or through-pore.
- Parameter of interest — pore size distribution, total pore volume, BET surface area, micropore volume, bubble point, mean flow pore size, tortuosity, etc.
- Constraints — sample mass available, hazard class, temperature limits for degassing, prior porosimetry or imaging results.
Many questions can also be answered before sending an email by reading the comparison pages: MIP vs. gas adsorption, porosimetry vs. porometry, and nitrogen vs. argon adsorption.
