How Does Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry Compare with Other Porosimetry Techniques?
Compared to other techniques like gas adsorption (BET method), MIP provides a wider range of pore size measurements and faster results. However, gas adsorption is less likely to alter the structure of delicate materials and can measure smaller pores more accurately. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages, and often a combination of techniques is used for comprehensive pore structure characterization.
