Catalyst characterization
Our unique combination of competences in morphology, process analytics and data analysis & statistics drives our work in catalyst characterization.
Through our capability in small molecule profiling we are giving customers fresh insight into their complex materials, which in turn is helping to reduce everything from volatiles to unwanted residues.
Just one way that our small molecule profiling capabilities have helped customers:
This capability in small molecule profiling is driven by competences in molecular structures, quantification and data analysis & statistics.
Molecular structures covers our ability to identify and characterize molecules. This means understanding the molecule and all the aspects of it; and knowing which technologies to apply, and how to integrate the data to describe it.

Quantification covers our ability to quantify molecules and assemblies of molecules.
In addition to asking ourselves ‘how much?’, we also need to ask how much a molecule is actually doing? And indeed what is it doing? From sample taking to preparation, detection and weighing, the only way to achieve this is with repeatable precision accuracy.
