'''Surface Energy Analyzer (SEA)''' is a new second generation Inverse Gas Chromatography (IGC)instrument. The SEA is an advanced instrumentation for the characterisation of particulates, fibres and thin-films. It opens up a whole new world of sorption solutions. These are some of the facilities that the Surface energy anlayzer provides:
* Surface energetics
* Surface energy heterogeneity mapping
* Unrivalled accuracy
* Heats of sorption
* Fully automated
* Sorption isotherms
* Humidity control
* Phase transitions
* Sample reconditioning
* Diffusion kinetics
* Wide temperature range


Surface Energetics
Key properties measured by the surface energy analyzer include surface energy acid-base parameters, energetic heterogeneity mapping, batch-to-batch variations in surface chemistry, glass transition temperatures, adhesion – cohesion thermodynamics, and solubility parameters and crosslink density.

How does the Surface Energy Anlayzer (SEA) work?
The SEA is based on Inverse Gas Chromatography (IGC) methodology and is a gas phase technique for characterising surface and bulk properties of solid materials. The principles of IGC are very simple, being the reverse of a conventional gas chromatographic (GC) experiment.
A cylindrical column is uniformly packed with the solid material of interest, typically a powder, fibre or film. A pulse or constant concentration of gas is then injected down the column at a fixed carrier gas flow rate , and the time taken for the pulse or concentration front to elute down the column is measured by a detector. A series of IGC measurements with different gas phase probe molecules then allows access to a wide range of phyisco-chemical properties of the solid sample.
