Providing comprehensive characterization of catalytic materials pre- and post-reaction using a suite of structural and chemical techniques

Overview:

ChemCatBio's team of catalysis experts has extensive experience in connecting catalyst performance and stability to the bulk and surface structural and chemical properties of the material. We employ a suite of techniques to provide comprehensive materials characterization both pre- and post-reaction. These techniques include thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, FTIR/Raman/UV-Vis spectroscopy, physisorption and chemisorption, temperature programmed desorption/reduction/oxidation, x-ray diffraction, elemental composition, ultimate and proximate analysis, NMR spectroscopy, Time of Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry, and two-dimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.
