The BET method for microporous materials
5 Sept 2025The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method is the most common method for the evaluation of specific surface areas. In material science, taking accurate surface area measurements is critical but using BET can often lead to distorted due to micropores. Traditional approaches often overlook key nuances in Type I isotherms, complicating analysis and interpretation.
Discover how advanced validation techniques, including the Rouquerol criteria can enhance BET analysis to offer greater precision and reliability in microporous material characterization.
