The growth of interest in newly developed porous materials has
prompted the writing of this book for those who have the need to
make meaningful measurements without the benefit of years of
experience. One might consider this new book as the 4th edition of
"Powder Surface Area and Porosity" (Lowell & Shields), but for
this new edition we set out to incorporate recent developments in
the understanding of fluids in many types of porous materials, not
just powders. Based on this, we felt that it would be prudent to
change the title to "Characterization of Porous Solids and Powders:
Surface Area, Porosity and Density." This book gives a unique
overview of principles associated with the characterization of
solids with regard to their surface area, pore size, pore volume
and density. It covers methods based on gas adsorption (both physi
and chemisorption), mercury porosimetry and pycnometry. Not only
are the theoretical and experimental basics of these techniques
presented in detail but also, in light of the tremendous progress
made in recent years in materials science and nanotechnology, the
most recent developments are described. In particular, the
application of classical theories and methods for pore size
analysis are contrasted with the most advanced microscopic theories
based on statistical mechanics (e.g. Density Functional Theory and
Molecular Simulation). The characterization of heterogeneous
catalysts is more prominent than in earlier editions; the sections
on mercury porosimetry and particularly chemisorption have been
updated and greatly expanded."
