Product Overview

The IGA-200 is a fully integrated gravimetric sorption analyzer designed for dynamic multi-component gas and vapour sorption analysis. In addition to the multiple inlet mass flow controller system for multi-component gas sorption experiments, the IGA-200 also features a unique multi-stream vapour generation module, allowing the integration of both gas and vapour inlet streams in both pressure control and flow control modes.

Anti-condensation protection to 50 ºC is incorporated in the IGA-200, which allows operation with water and an extensive range of hydrocarbon vapours. The IGA-200 comes complete with a degas heater reactor with integral refrigerated recirculating water bath for fully automated sample temperature control from -15 to 500 °C. The combination of the multi-component gas and vapour sorption capability with close coupled quadrupole mass spectrometry makes the IGA-200 our most complete sorption analysis system.

Product Applications

Typical IGA-200 application areas include:

• Multi-component vapour and gas sorption
• Moisture sorption
• Organic vapour sorption
• Catalyst characterisation
• Pore size determination
• Vapor diffusion coefficient determination
• Temperature-programmed desorption (TPD)
• Thermal decomposition

• Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)

The IGA-200 can be used to study the sorption of a wide range of gas and vapours, including:

• Unreactive probe gases (e.g. nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide)
• Reactive species (e.g. hydrogen, oxygen, carbon monoxide)
• Alcohols (e.g. butanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, methanol, propanol)
• Aromatics (e.g. benzene, styrene, toluene, xylene)
• Chlorinated compounds (e.g. chloroanisole, chlorobenzene, chloroform, chlorotoluene, cyclohexane)
• Hydrocarbons (e.g. butane, ethene, hexane, octane)
• Water
