Surface Measurement Systems Ltd develops and engineers innovative experimental techniques and instrumentation for physico-chemical characterization of complex solids.
“World leaders in sorption science and pioneers of the now widely used Dynamic Vapor Sorption technique”
Surface Measurement Systems Ltd is an expert in dynamic vapor sorption and inverse gas chromatography technology instrumentation and solutions, providing professional world-class scientific and technical support for international customers.
By carefully controlling, measuring and analysing the physicochemical interaction of vapours with solid samples such as powders, fibres and films, Surface Measurement Systems Ltd can help solve problems in research and development, such as stability studies and drying performance, through to manufacturing and quality control.
Product Range
Dynamic Vapor Sorption Instruments (DVS)
Our range of DVS instruments measure uptake and loss of moisture and organic vapours by a sample, allowing sorption behaviour to be accurately determined.
Surface Energy Analyser (iGC-SEA)
Our SEA is unique and allows characterizing surface and bulk properties of powders, particulates, fibers, films and semi-solids using a fully automated inverse gas chromatography principle.
Humidity generators & Microscopy cell
The GenRH series is a new family of portable humidity generator products. It provides ideal add-ons to many standard analytical characterization techniques, mechanical testing, conditioning and stability studies.
